It was really a non-event....even anti-climatic when you consider how much time you spend putting all the paperwork together.

We were called in about 5 minutes late. The officer (Brown) did the oaths bit and we settled in our seats. She proceeded to ask my spouse for his parents first names and his ex's first name. Went through the questions: public assistance, any arrests, and the rest of those on the form. She then asked where we met. She said the file was pretty complete and but wouldn't be approving it at the interview. It is not her policy anyway-she likes to review the file one more time and there isn't enough time before her next interview. We thought she might be pretty new as she was relatively young.

We asked about a stamp and she indicated that because the cards are only taking 7 to 10 days, a stamp is not needed. However, if we needed permission to leave the US before then, we could make an InfoPass appointment to receive a stamp. On our way out, we gave her the additional "evidence" of our relationship. She hadn't even asked for it.

All in all, I think it was 10 minutes. Steve was approved on May 21st, 2 business days after the interview. Done for now and can't wait to see what the "Lifting Conditions application" will cost in 2 years time.
