I got a call for interview last week and it went off well. The officer asked for a few documents and then congratulated us and asked us to wait outside. After 1/2 hour she came out and gave us the stamped passport.
By the way, a week before another friend got approval notice and went there. He and his wife went at 9:00 clock and the line was really long - they went inside but left after 2:00 pm, as they did not call them yet. They went back the next day at 6:30 am and got it by 8 AM.
All the best...

With your reply I knew what to expect.

RD 08/06/2001
ND 09/26/2001
RFE 07/11/2002
AD 07/26/2002
Notices (lawyer & courtesy) received on 08/02/2002

Passports (wife & me) stamped on 08/05/2002.
Got in at 9:00 am and got out at 3:10 pm.
INS doors close at 1:00 pm (it says 3:00 pm on notices) but processing continues until numbers are completed.
Good luck to all!

bepos, answers to your questions
1) Can you tell what documents you took?
INS approval notices (lawyer - not courtesy).
Valid passports.
Original I-94s.
2 INS compliant photos
&
Form I-89 (you get it at their office - fingerprints & signatures on it)
2) What questions did they ask during stamping?
No questions asked.
3) Can stamping be done on any day and what time does INS open?
Monday through Friday (except 3rd Friday of the month). INS opens at 7:00 am.
4)Any other details you can provide us, please write.
It is FIFO. Get there early 6:30 am-7:00 am and you will be out in no time. It took 5-10 mins to get stamps when our numbers were called.
Hope that helps!
Good Luck!
