Hello everyone, my husband had his interview at islamabad embassy for ir-1/cr-1 about a week ago. Result was AP, the interviewer said it would take 4 months maybe less maybe more ... who knows! Anyhow my question is , the interview only lasted like 15 min, he didn't look at any of the proof my husband brought even though my husband offered, he just looked at wedding pics and said everything looks good, and kept his passport an told him AP. However he returned all the original documents to my husband that we submitted at the NBC stage, and told my husband he did not need photocopies either, the interviewer didn't even keep th copies of te AOS packet an the Ds-230 packet either, that we were told thy would ask for at the interview. However a good sign is that theykept his passport and didn't ask for anything else. I guess I'm just nervous bc they didn't keep any copies, is that normal ?? or happened to anyone else??

It is normal, they did exactly the same with me however they wanted more docs which I sent to them and at the interview they did make me sign on a paper which seemed like DS-230 part 2 and kept my passport. Did he get a blue refusal sheet as well or a green one?
