My baby had his interview this morning and we were approved weeee! He got there early this morning said he stood outside in the cold for about an hour, was given immigrant number 6 turned in his paperwork, was told to take a seat and wait, shortly after he was called to a kiosk where a very young american woman asked him a few questions, mainly when/where did we meet, when did we get engaged, where did we work and if he had bought a ring yet ( he showed her the receipt for the ring) and that was it :)

He will be arriving in the US on May 3rd hopefully!

Thanks everyone again for the continued support throughout this long and dreadful process. Ill be seeing you around very soon when we start our AOS and EAD paperwork :) Good luck for those still waiting I hope it goes fast for you!
