ok, got it. Thanks a lot for replying.

Let me check how to get transcripts.

 

You can get tax transcripts at this link. It was really easy to get them online on the same day. We got the "Record of Account" transcripts.

prettypass2000 did they ask you for your passpost at the interview ?

Yes. It's a must to bring your passport even though it's expired. You will need to bring your i.d., green card, and passport. In your interview letter, it will instruct you to bring those along with other documents as specify in the letter! GOOD LUCK.

Hey guys,

 

I have infopass appointment on the 10th of January 2016. People who have previous experience of infopass appointment, could you please share as to how I should prepare myself for the appointment. I sent in my application on 23rd of September and FP was done 19th of October. Since then I have not heard anything from USCIS. I booked this appointment to basically get a true update.

 

Thanks in Advance.

I am in the same position as you buddy. I sent application on Sep 26. My FP was on Oct 18. Still no update. I spoke to an L2 officer and she asked me to wait as there is a huge backlog in background testing. All we can do is wait

You have to bring the Infopass paper that you print out. I suggest you bring a copy of your application and documents you submitted. However, for your case update, you may not get much from Infopass at all. My friend just went and they didn't give her any update, except this phrase "you are under time processing. Our processing time is within 5-6 months (DC). Please contact us back if it passes 180 days". She said it's a waste of time, which I agree.

Oh no. Hope you will find it. Do you have the most current passport? I think you should bring that one. I only have one because my country Embassy took the older one away when I renewed it and handed me this current one, which I brought to the interview.

Wow that's interesting that they made you be more specific. This is the first time I've heard of them not accepting one of the listed answers. I'm guessing it depends on the officer you get? I believe they are supposed to accept any of the listed answers, but it seems safest to memorize the most specific answers. This USCIS officer's post confirms that only one answer needs to be memorized unless otherwise stated: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/189336-new-free-tool-for-studying-the-100-questions/?page=9#comment-8405445

 

I was surprised to. My friend said I could remember one of them but she suggested to remember all. When it said New York (harbor), they should accept both New York and New York Harbor. He somehow said I needed to be more specific when I said New York. Thankfully, I remembered all. I think it depends on the interviewers. My interviewer is nice but he's very detail-oriented. He went through every page of my application and asked more questions about why I got my case expedited and such. But he didn't ask for more documentation, except my husband's LOI

Thank you. Good luck! We are very excited, except that they gave me the date last Friday and expect us to be ready to board the plane on 1/27! Now I have to rush to get stuffs done. LOL.

I don't know why you had the urge to do that info-pass, really. What did you expect to here from them? It is still in the process. Search among n-400 filters. People wait longer. That's how it usually happens. You have to be patient and wait. It should be at least 5 months from your priority date before you hear from them. If you hear nothing, then I would be worried. August filters just now start being scheduled for the interview little by little. Some are still waiting. If you have ELIS account, you can write there, they will answer you with the update. If you get nervous too much, write your questions that you want to ask  in the paper to remember. Don't stress, take it easy!

Thanks for your comment. Well, why did I have the urge....ummm I do not have to tell that. This forum is to help each other out and not to criticize. All I asked for was an advice. Anyway, Thanks!

Hey,

The page I got says that it needs all passports since you got the greencard. So, if your old passport is older than 5 years -- maybe its ok.

But, please do not cancel the appointment...the letter says that keep the appointment even if you don't have all the documents.
