We attended the interview yesterday. Our appointment time was 8:30am. We arrived at the embassy at 7:30am. Because of the preperation from this website we had no real surprises. After finger scanning, Mae met with the prescreener. I couldn't see what was going on but I was getting nervous because she was taking a long time. When she moved back from the window a little, I saw she was laughing out loud. When she came back to the seating area she told me it was just like having a conversation with a new acquaintance. They were laughing about some of our photos and the fact Mae has a college degree in Automotive mechanics (dont ask, its a long story).

The only slight surprise was that when Mae was called for the interview, they immediately told me to go in with her. I was under the impression that the petitioner wasn't usually invited into the actual interview. He swore Mae in and asked her how we met. He asked me why I was in the Philippines back in 2006 when we first met. He then asked me about my previous marriage and children. He asked about our wedding plans and when we would leave the Philippines. He then said we were approved and congratulated us. We were done by 10:30am.

Thanks to everyone on this website for your contributions.
