So….

I’ll mix David’s text with mine.

P: I was a little bit anxious – I don’t like any situation where I have to answer questions…. My memory could make tricks on me…. BUT it was easy-peasy!

D: The interviewer asked a number of very simple questions, was pretty
formal, and then surprised us both (I think) by simply saying “I’ve
approved your application” just when I thought he was going to start
asking the hard stuff.  easy!  I think he was a bit worried when we
said that we weren’t living together, but when we produced the
paperwork for the house.
I think that went from questionable to case closed… I think…

P: I think this was also the main reason!

Anyway, yeah, it’s totally done.  I thought there’d be little question
at this point, but actually there’s no question at all.  He took her
current visa-type stuff, and once the green card arrives that’ll be
the everything card until it expires in two years.  At that point
(already on the calendar), we have to submit a (reportedly simple)
form to extend her into “[no longer Temporary ]Permanent Resident”
status.  And that’s that.

P: So, in Jan 2010 we’ll renew it. Easy like this.

We are very happy to end one more part of this laborious process!!
