Hey guys!

I got my interview notice a couple days ago and it will take place next month... The thing is that my hubby is on deployment and wont be able to come with me.

I called the USCIS Military help line and they told me that i could go to the interview w/o him, but i would have to take with me a letter from commandin officer.. to prove

that he is on deployemnt..

last time i asked about this here, ppl commented that i could reschedule it or go w/o my hubby... BUT i would like to know if you actually know of someone that has done the same thing and have gone to the interview without his/her spouse..

Thanks!

hmmm, this is complex. If I were you i wd have done an infopass appointment and asked about my options. BUt then if no one here, who has gone thru similar circumstannces, replies back - then i think you shd try to get some free advice from a lawyer group. MOst of them have free initial advice facility. TRy to find out some good immigration attorneys in ur area. I am giving you some that I found online :

http://www.lawyerfamuyide.com/

http://www.murthy.com/

http://www.lawbench.com/answers

Google it out ...there wd be some good in ur state. Hope this helps.

Hi

Is Your husband deployed already? If he is not make an urgent infopass. Try to go with him and the deployment paper along with all your evidence. You never know they could interview you right away or set a date before he lives.

I know of this friend who did that and they had an opening the same day.

Good luck to u!!

I don't remember who but yes, there has been another VJer - about 1- 2 years ago - who attended her AOS interview on her own because her husband was deployed. She provided the necessary information from the military proving her husband was indeed deployed and she received her green card without a problem. Good luck on your interview.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

I just sent you a message. :)

Yes, you can attend the interview without your husband. All you need is his orders. I have done it before. :) Good luck!
