when you accompany her to the interview the CO likes that and it lessons the number of questions. Approval is fast. But it is not necessary that you are there as she is going to do just fine. Be sure to explain to her to look the CO in the eye, answer the questions truthfully and with confidence and if she doesn't know the answer then she should say so.

The questions are going to be about you and your relationship with her. So she needs to know everything about you in case it is asked.

good luck.
