WOW. Congrats, you should report that lawyer to the Department of Justice. You could have been a no-show!

so this was my story haha..

ok so my lawyer about a month ago had said that she needed to cancel my interview because of unknown reasons, and well time went on and i kept getting worried because i never got a cancelation letter or anything proving it had been cancelled. so, the day before my scheduled interview i told my husband that maybe he should call immigration because i was not sure they had cancelled and i didn't want to be denied for not showing up. well, he called and it turned out that my lawyer lied and my interview was still scheduled. the next day (day of interview) we went to her office and told them we needed my folder with all my information, and they refused to give it to me because they said the lawyer was not there and because my interview was cancelled. i told them that it was not that my husband had called and it was still on, so they were very rude and i argued with them for about 10 minutes and i told them to at least give me my visa and the permit that i entered the us with. they ended up giving me only that.

i went to my interview, and of course i was on the list!! and they checked me in. the sad thing i was so nervous because i was so unprepared, i only had our insurance with both names, pictures, and the birth certificate of our daughter. the good thing is that we got an awesome immigration officer, and got approved!!

so good luck to everyone, and be very careful with immigration lawyers..

I'm not from New York but the only other July filer from Chicago was scheduled for an interview the same day as us while people from other parts of the country seemed to have them in October. So I would probably agree that New York is just delayed. I remember looking through the April and May filers and seeing that the New York people usually waited a few weeks longer.
