LOL super :angry: why would he do that...I think that's insane...is there anyway you can go online and get printouts of them (I know you can for the bank statements) not sure about your utilities (you can try) or call them and ask them to fax you a copy of the last statement...tell your hubby it's ok to keep min 6 months worth of bills and statements (that's the rule of thumb) anything else he can throw out...

Thanks. I went online and I printed some statements and bills. It is so annoying. He keeps throwing everything. He keeps only two week paystubs.

LOL that's funny and can understand how annoying it can be...he shouldn't throw EVERYTHING away but try to keep some just in case...you never know when you'll need them (as in the case)...but good thing everything's available online these days...good luck with everything

Good day all,

I have a bit of bad news and wouldl ike to know if any of you guys here on VJ have experienced it. :help:

My wife and I filed her AOS application on 7/16/08, recieved her EAD and AP in September 2008. We recieved a NOA dated 10/27/2008 advising us that there is an interview set up for us on 12/18/2008 at 1:00pm. Up until here is all dandy. TODAY 11/17/08 we recieved another NOA from USCIS advising us as following:

" This is to advise you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we have canceled the previously scheduled interview on Thursday, 12/18/2008 at 1:00pm for the above applicant. We regret any inconvenience this may cause. You will be notified of any future action taken on this case including any rescheduled interview information, under seperate notice"

Well, I have already asked my job to take off that day. My wife who has been staying home for the last four and a hallf years at home, because we could not file her papers until I becamse a citizen in June of this year, finally she got her work permit and found a job in this economy. She told the employer she will not accept the job offer if they will not let gher off on 12/18/08 for her green card interview which they agreed. Keep in mind the job has not started yet, she will start training on 12/8/2008. In this economy, it is hard to find a job let alone having to accept a job and insist on taking off before even taking the job offer, and get away with it is incredible. Keep all this in mind and accept what USCIS is telling you (We regret any inconvenience this may cause!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

My question for the VJ friends is: Did anyone go through similar situation? Scheduled for an interview and been canceled by USCIS (Due to unforseen circumstances)..... anyone has been rescheduled for another interview after being canceled?

Thank you in advance,

Hope this gives some comfort: when my husband was waiting for his interview (for citizenship) his interview was cancelled 2-3 times...each time it was cancelled they later sent another interview date in the mail...so no worries...they probably just over scheduled...

Received interview letter in the mail today!

CONGRATS, when is your interview scheduled for?

Dec 17th and I am not prepared

It's not a final exam, you don't need to study for it. :rofl:

Hi there, fellow July filers!

Hope all is good! I'm starting to get worried about my AOS. I haven't been able to check my status online since I got the NOAs. And I haven't received any letter saying it's been transferred or what's going on.

I received the travel doc and the EAD about a month and a half ago though.

Do you have any suggestions? What can I do?

Thanks!

Q: I have my interview scheduled for 12/4 @12:30 pm...I have a son (5yrs old) that'll be in school (kindergarten til 2:55pm) and a daughter (2 yrs old) that's at home with me...Is it ok if my daughter came to the interview with us? Don't have anyone to watch her, thought about keeping my son home from school and bringing him also but figured might as well leave him in school (we should be through with the interview by the time he gets out...the office is about 45 mins from my house)....What do you guys think?/ Will they frown upon it if my daughter is with us?
