Our Jan interview went smoothly until the CO had an issue with some emails wherein I blacked out what I deemed to be private info. I misinterpreted a post about using a black marker to mark out text. You can black out text that can be used for identity theft only. If you feel you have to black out anything in emails and sms don't present it. The CO wanted to see the original emails of the blacked out docs. Later that day, I scanned and emailed them to my SO and he went back the next day but he couldn't get in. I immediately emailed for a new appt. date. Set for 2 weeks later.
The Feb interview went well. She was satisfied with the content of the original emails and said all was in order but that we needed a joint sponsor (i am self employed with infrequent income). My advise - if you are borderline and can get one prepare the joint sponsor form and give it to your SO for the interview just in case its needed. This may save you some time. I immediately emailed for a new appt. date. Set for 1 month later.
At the March interview we gave CO the joint sponsor paperwork and he was approved.
I believe we would have been approved the 1st time if the emails were in order.
Try not to get discouraged. Just followup immediately to show them you have everything readily available.
