Green Card is nowhere to be found, Interview in 4 days!

[Gumbolette 58]

okay, I turned in several pertinent information to a local gov't office so they can make copies of it including my new 10-yr GC..

The lady gave back all my docs in an envelope and she said she put the GC back in there which when I checked I saw the little envelope it came with... But for some reason, I ridiculously can't find my GC now!

If Im unable to find it before my interview, what should be my next step???

Feedbacks are greatly appreciated.

Adjudication officers always ask for the green card at the time of interviewing on naturalization certificate AND officers at the Oath ceremony would definitely demand for the GC as it's mandatory to surrender the GC once you become a US Citizen; otherwise you might get a lot of problems while entering into the US even on a US Passport. Thus, you MUST make ALL the efforts to look for the GC but if you still don't find it then make a police report about losing it or misplacing it in the house or whatever. Take that report to your interview along with whatever govt. ID you have especially anything from Federal Govt. Officers know that you can not obtain GC so quickly, thus you will not be required to replace it anymore, but make sure to ask the officer to put a note in your file about not having GC for the purpose of taking Oath so that you will not be asked for it at the time of taking Oath. You will be fine. It does happen and USCIS is aware of it. So don't worry much about it.
