Maybe too far back, 2021, to be a meaningful representation of Houston today. My papers said I was to attend alone and that my spouse would not be permitted to enter the building. She stayed at home. You letter might say what today's policy is.

Thank you,  Im looking at the letter and does not mention anyting about the spouse.

Im going to go with him anyways, and see if they let me in to stay in waiting area.

No. 

Did anything happen during the interview which might warrant a delay?
