what is initial interview for

[Tommy&Emma 0]

I just got a letter from USCIS asking me and my husband to do an initial interview at pheonix local office. Anyone know waht this initial interview is for?

I know nothing about this. Is there going to be another one?

Thanks!

Initial meaning first - could be last too (most only have one, some have more than one and some don't have one at all... ) - its just their terminology.

Initial Interview is THE INTERVIEW...... Congrats. Wish you best of luck and hope there isn't a follow-up interview. They probably use the word "initial" to give it more legal coverage. If the IO is not satisfied, you could be called for a second, third or fourth....Atleast thats my understanding. But the second one almost always the decisive one. Once Again..... Congrats and best of luck.
