Interview JFK 7/10 @ 2:30 for myself & 7:15 pm for my husband. Initial interview was scheduled for EWR 7/18 @ 5:40 am for both of us. At least one of us is happy that we got a closer location since we live in Long Island.
We arrived at JFK at appx. 2:05 pm and there were a number of people waiting. They called my husband & I at 2:35 pm and by 2:47 pm, we were finished. We got our approval on the spot and the email confirmation was rec'd at 2:51 pm.
The CBP officer who conducted the interview was pretty funny. Although my husband had a 7:15 pm appointment, she jokingly told him that he'd have to wait 4 more hours which gave us a good laugh since I told him he could hang out there and I'll come back later. As an aside, she even said they encourage couples with same appointment dates but different times to show up together at whichever of the appt'ment time that works for them.
