September 17, 2018: I got a letter in the mail saying that I haven't submitted medical form and that I can bring it to the interview.

Interview Experience:
Interview time was 11:10 AM. Arrived there about 10:45 AM. I checked in at the front desk and the lady told me to put my interview notice in the drop box by the door and that they will call my name. After about 20 minutes, the officer came out to call my name. Once we got to her office, she asked us to leave out phones out in a box. Before sitting down, she made us swear to tell the truth. she asked for our driver licences and passports then asked me to if i have any documents to provide for my case. She said she doesn't want to see any originals at all. I gave her our supporting documents (will discuss later) along with my medical form. She started asking the yes or no questions to me after confirming our address and that the info we provided was true. She then asked us only one question >> Where did you meet << and that was about it. She said everything looks fine and that she'll review it after her break. She gave me the white sheet and we left. After 2 hours, status changed to new card is being produced.
