You are one lucky couple. It depends how long the wait at your service center is. If I were in your shoes I would be a bit early.

Well, I can't speak from experience or anything with an interview or that DO, but if it was me I'd probably arrive about an hour early. Alcohol is my only tip to stay calm ;) A nice glass of wine at 7am may do you well! :)

The AOS interview is really nothing to worry about. I know people told me that before I went to my own (and then later my daughter's), but I was still a nervous wreck at mine. When I saw how quick and easy it was, I wasn't the least bit nervous about my daughter's interview.

It is so much less stressful than you are imagining it to be. I would even go so far as to say, it's actually quite boring.

Good luck and best wishes.

Don't bother arriving any more than 20 mins before your interview IMHO. If you get there an hour before you'll just be sitting in that damn waiting room stressing for 55 mins.

As to how to stay calm, take my advice - the interview is a breeze unless you have something to hide. If your marriage is real you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Good luck!

I'm obsessive about always arriving early/being on time so my advice about arriving an hour early may not be the best ;)

We were an hour early for ours and we did not even get in the car park the attendant told us to come back in half n hour.

As has been stated it's a bit of an anti-climax really so you have nothing to be worried about.
