My husband got to the US Embassy at 7am for his 7:45am interview. At 7:30am he was called to a window where his appointment letter was checked and all previously submitted original documents were returned to him. After waiting for a while he was called in to a room for his interview. The CO was a very friendly older White American gentleman who spoke with my husband in both English and Bangla. Upon walking into the room, my husband noticed the CO already had the AP form in his hand. They shook hands, my husband sat down. The CO asked him the following questions:
Q: Who petitioned for you?
Q: Where is your wife now?
Q: What does she do for a living?
Q: What do you do for a living?
At this point the CO got into an extended side conversation with my husband about his medical degree/future plans, while handing him the AP form. When my husband saw the AP form his face must of paled because the CO stopped what he was saying abruptly and started reassuring my husband that this form is only to inform him that his case will be reviewed a bit further and it is absolutely nothing to worry about. My husband asked if he needed to submit any more paperwork, the CO said "No, all your paperwork is in order, your interview went really well, you're fine. This is just a routine part of the process." My husband then asked: "When can I expect to hear back?" The CO said "I can't give you a definite date, but I'm keeping your passport and you will hear back from us." After that my husband didn't ask any more questions about the 221g AP sheet, but the CO said "Don't worry" like 10 more times during the rest of the interview. He asked:
Q: How did you and your spouse get married?
Q: Do you have any photos?
After that, he said "Don't worry, we will contact you when we are done reviewing your case". My husband shook hands with the CO, thanked him, and left the embassy at around 11am.
