The visas validity period is from the date of our medicals which we did almost a month ago.
The interview was last week and it was very short:

Me
Co; I want to see your wife, can she step forward?she does
CO: Both please raise raise your hands and take the oath-we do, the fingerprints.
CO:I have seen the children, they can go play. we lat them go back to the toys
CO:Any of you, do you have any other children other than these ones. We ...
CO: has any of you been married before? We?......
CO:have you ever applied for us visa befory? We......
CO: If you get this visa where will you go?I.....
CO:You have a family there? I......
CO: everything seems OK so I am approving your visas-congratulations!
CO: here are instructions on how to register with the courier, and these forms, one for each of you on how to pay the USCIS fee. You will get your visas in about a week. Do not open the envelope that comes with the passport.
And that was it people.

A lot of thanks to Susie, Mom, B.Simon who made our preparations easier and adequate. We were very confident courtesy of this forum.
Appreciation to all in the forum.
In the interview room, I saw one single young lady who was also approved and a family that got into AP.
Most interviewees were non immigrants.

My host is in MD and I will most likely start there. I am not decided on when to travel as I have a bit of in tray that must be handled. I will be ahead of my family hopefully long enough to get a driving licence and that might be mid or late July.

@usken go from your interview, it appears that sometimes the CO may question the spouse (who I presume in your case was a derivative) during the interview.

I believe school registration is similar in almost all places. You take proof of residence to the local school board and get assigned a school. I don't think any public schools charge fees in the US.

Healthcare on the other hand will vary widely by individual according to job, income etc.
