Any recent experience of attempting to reschedule an I-485 interview? I just got an email notification that mine will be on August 29th, right in the middle of Burning Man (expensive tickets already booked and preparations made for my wife and I to attend)

the sooner the better. don't expect them to reschedule quickly. they get pissy for reasons outside of emergencies. :whistle:

It's do-able but it will put you back into the queue for interviews at your local office (you won't be prioritised over new applicants). Your rescheduled interview will likely be several weeks away and potentially a couple of months.

Only you can answer whether this is acceptable to you in exchange for going to an entertainment event.

And there is always the risk that somebody screws up and you find out that you got denied because you didn't show up at the originally scheduled interview.

Personally, I'd be selling those Burning Man tickets and (probably) making a nice profit.
