My husband arrived at 7:45AM for his 8:00AM appointment. He lined up and his papers were checked by a guard outside. He then was shuffled through the airport type security line. Once inside he was given I913 (On Friday the 13th no less). He sat waiting in a long room line with chairs.
He was called about 45 mins later to window 13. A nice Brazilian looking man looked at all his documents. He advised my husband that he brought too much paper work (Umm yeah his wife sits on VJ all day and is an Executive Assistant to two executives in a major company of course he is over prepared!) So the gentleman tells him all looks well and to sit and wait again.
At about 11:00AM he is called back to Window 13. This time it is a american man. Turns out the man was from Utah which is where we live. They chatted about Utah and places my husband has seen here. He looked at my 2013 tax documents in my updated I-864, but didn't take them.
He was asked the following questions and answered as follows:
How did we meet? Online gaming.
Had he met my mother? Yes though I am not fond of her birth mother. I have also met her adopted mother and she is a lovely person.
Did you know that she petitioned for her ex-husband? Yes. He was is a bad person. She cancelled the petition.
Then he stamped something and said "Okay you are approved!"
My husband said that everyone was very nice and pleasant. He said the worst part was all the waiting. He said he was more nervous than he really needed to be.
