I did overhear some guys sitting behind in waiting hall cribbing that they have been waiting for almost 2 hrs now. So dont know how this works.

Partner's Oath on Jan 6.
I can now peacefully leave for India trip on 10th Dec with my GC :)

Thanks a lot to everyone here -
If anything - I would say, just dont sweat.
By the way, the A-file that was in front of my officer - man, that was humongous!
 
5. Asked if I was still working at my 'current' job - said Yes. She was 'wow'ed :)

The IO who interviewed me was equally wow'ed but I've been at the same place for 25 years (1st and only job outside college)...

(10 years Solaris/HPUX, 10 years QNX, can't get any better :D)

Congrats!
