Congratulations :thumbs: This is a great post and I am sure the people coming behind you will greatly appreciate your attention to detail. I remember when Claudeth was getting ready for the interview we tried to pick everyones brain about what went on and what was asked.

:blush: Oh my god... I've only just realised just how long that post of mine was - maybe the VJ community could have done without *quite* so much detail on the subject of my breakfast ('tho I wanted to get across that I didn't even have to wait around long enough to eat half a croissant, let alone to need to get my book out - I'm still amazed at how quick it was, the whole thing really did pass in a blur!), but having felt pretty calm about the interview until the last few days, then suddenly feeling really nervous, I started reading all the reviews - so thought someone else having a bit of a panic might feel better if they could hear exactly what happened!

Thank you all for the congrats - it feels like such a relief, and I was skipping around the house earlier when I should have been having a pre-night-shift nap. Which reminds me: oops, I've managed to make it sound like I work somewhere dead exciting & glamourous - nope, I work for the BBC (World Service News) & much as I've liked working here, all I can think right now is 'when do I get to leave???' - so it was kind of hard to share the consular officers' enthusiasm! :lol:

Oh yeah - I forget who it was who said upthread that the 'approved' stamp on the paperwork must mean you're already approved before the interview - but anyway, nope, that stamp was on the I-129F (I could see everything we sent with our petition all clipped together on the desk) - it was strangely cheering to see the actual evidence of someone at CSC having worked on our file when it felt like the NOA2 would surely never come! :lol:

Right, got to go and do some work... I have *so* much VJ-catching-up to do, and I owe soooo many people on here messages right now - I am rubbish, but they are coming, honest!

2005 - We met

2006 - Filed I-129F

2007 - K-1 issued, moved to US, completed AOS (a busy year, immigration-wise)

2009 - Conditions lifted
