is it possible to re-schedule a date for the AOS interview IF we can't make it to the date the scheduled for us?

What would you be doing that you cant go to your AOS interview....

my understanding is that you have to have a very good reason for not attending ie.. in hospital

Think of it like you would if you got a summons for jury duty. You really don't have a choice in the matter, short of major illness or death in the family.

You could write a letter to your District Office asking to reschedule, but it will delay your processing big time and your case could even be denied.

i think you can reschedule it but with a valid reason.

but you sure you want to reschedule it?

your application might take longer now....when it takes longer it means more waiting time and sometimes you need to get new medical exam & another biometrics meaning another money.....

so i suggest dont reschedule it.

whatever you will do why you cant attend the interview, reschedule that not the interview.

it is still your decision. this is just my suggestion.

good luck

The situation for was a pretty complicated. but long story short,

we just sent out the I-130 and stuff.

i heard that it usually takes about 6 months before they schedule an AOS interview.

it's now March, and in six months, we have to go back to my country for some very important family

business.

so i was wondering "what if" we can't be here (US) on our schaduled date...

I hope your "we have to go back to my country for some very important family business." meens more to you than your Greencard....

You would be expected to return to attend your interview.....

lubangtam,

You can try. But be aware that many people who have asked that their AOS interview be re-scheduled found out after the fact, and to their great dismay, that the interview had not been rescheduled.

And even worse, found that out while they were trying to reenter the country and have the news that their petition was denied due to non appearance at their interview broken to them by CBP... requiring that they go back to their home country and start all over again.

If I were you, I would reschedule whatever family business that you had...It's not more important than this interview...

If this business is life-or-death, then you may get around it. But if it's something that can wait, then attending your AOS interview is probably the most important thing you can do.

It seems like you are just planning ahead.. you don't have an interview date yet, do you?

You can watch processing times for your District Office and others using it to help plan when you *might* be called for your interview, but it has made major problems for others who have tried to reschedule. Often they end up with a denied case that they have to try and rebuild.
