Lost our AOS Interview Letter-- Appointment is in 4 days! Gulp.

[buckarooster 0]

Hello, this is embarrassing but my husband and I managed to somehow lose our AOS interview letter. I know the date (Monday November 14) and time (7:45 AM) but I don't have the address committed to memory. Checking with friends and online it looks like the location is 630 Sansome, San Francisco (where we live)-- but no idea of the the floor or suite number within that building. Tomorrow is Thursday, the day before Veteran's Day. We are both going to call USCIS to ask if there is any way we can keep the interview without the letter, or if we can somehow get a copy of the interview letter electronically.

Has anyone out there had this same problem? I found a similar scenario from like 2009 where the applicant was able to get through to their interview without a copy of the letter, but it was in Dallas.... 7 years ago.

Any suggestions or feedback welcome!!! Thank you!!!

No experience in SanFran, but since you know the time, date and location of the interview, I would show up. Most USCIS local offices have a welcome desk at the entrance, just explain the situation to them when you arrive and they should be able to direct you further.

Good Luck and let us know how things go.

Please call them ASAP and have them fax it to you. Go to a docucenter or something.

Thank you. We called to request the fax. The wait was over 300 mins so we had to enter the number to have them call back. Still hoping to receive the callback around now. I was able to confirm with one of the agents that they should be able to fax it to us, but only at the "elevated" level that requires a callback. Thanks for the suggestion.

Also, we were told that we might be able to get in without the letter, it will depend on security. We'll have a printout of the status update from the USCIS website as well as all the background documents.

USCIS called my husband back after about 5 hours. He then waited on hold for about 45 minutes. They were able to locate the letter and said it would be faxed within 30 minutes and that he would receive a call when it did. Followed by... Crickets. He called back after 5pm, was told we might be able to get in without the letter, or we might not. I stuck around my office hoping that maybe the letter would arrive at the fax machine. No dice, until, after 6 I checked one last time... AND THERE IT WAS!
