I guess it depends upon what the embassy said to your husband. My husband didnt receive any phone call prior to the interview but I got a call a month later for a phone interview... now we are just awaiting his visa....

What did the embassy say?

Thank for the reply, Embassy just asked him to bring the orignal birth certificate and marriage certificate with urdu and english translation and

just asked him to be there at 8am appointment time.

it felt like a reminder call to me but i personally havent heard from anyone that they call so thats y i asked the q

my husband also didnt ask the person name, all the person said was he is calling from american embassy...

i just hope it was not someone else...

my priority date is January 28th 2011 i beleive

From what you said it sounds like they needed the originals and didnt have them so they were asking him to bring them to be sure he didnt have to submit after the interview which leads to ap... so it wasnt just a reminder for the interview it was a request to bring the original documents that were not submitted prior to the NVC
