He arrived an hour early but they let him line up 15 minutes prior to appt. Dressed semi casual gray jeans, pink collard short sleeve buttoned shirt, brown dress shoes, clean haircut, trimmed facial hair. He presented the required appt letter, DS-260 receipt, and original civil documents at the outside window. He then went through security and proceeded to a secondary window inside. That's where he presented original I-864 and passport. The clerk looked over it and immediately said he'll need a co-sponsor. He proceeded to sit in the waiting room for 3 hours. A name similar to his was called earlier, he went to the inner window to verify if it was his name but the clerk said no. It later turned out it was his name and the clerk spoke up and said they made a mistake earlier, wich is why he was second to last. Last was a K1 Moroccan with Moroccan.
They interview in open lobby windows standing. His CO was a Caucasian middle aged man, bland demeanor. They greeted each other with a simple hello.

He gave him an alternative version of 221g with sponsor highlighted.
20. Are you registered with Aramex?
He was about to hand him the paper and then asked
21. Do you have the first conversation on the language app?
CO: Wrote on 221g to bring 1st conversation and verbally instructed him. Then he politely said to please bring more pictures.
A: Are you going to return my passport?
CO: No, just bring your items to Aramex and you're good to go.
A: So you're keeping my passport?
CO: Yes, everything is well.
Walking out the clerk very pleasantly told my husband "you're good, your case is easy just turn in the documents and you'll have your visa".
Observations:
-Many were denied, placed in AP, a few were given the modified 221g like us. He noticed 2 APPROVED. (6) K1 were denied and (1) CR1 was approved from what he could observe.
-He noticed that MANY did not speak English well, stuttered, and/or didn't know the answer to questions like "What does your wife do for a living?" "When did you meet?". These were denied including those that used translators.
-My husband presented confident and relaxed, made eye contact. He said it was more like a conversation.
-The questions come straight from the evidence and information you provided.
-The cafe across the street is closed so plan on going elsewhere. I waited a block over.
