Okay guys, need some urgent help here. I have my AOS interview coming up in a couple of days. I just grabbed all of my papers to find out that i have either forgot to copy or misplaced my submitted forms I-485, I-765 & I-131. I have all reciept notices, interview notice etc but cannot for the life of me find the documents i submitted at time of applying for AOS. Have EAD & AP card in hand. I know USCIS wants all original documents that were sent off so what do i do now?! Panicking big time!

I don’t know they want the original documents

I'm sure you will be fine. A lot of people I've spoken to said they didn't even look at those documents, it's just a precautionary. 

 

If anything, I would just fill out another one of those forms if need be to have it there.

aside from IDs & interview notice letter, the only other things we showed them in the interview were evidence (photos, joint lease, etc) and a copy of the overseas medical. that was it! don't worry, you'll be fine

I panicked for the same reason...thought of re doing the forms . Luckily my hus and said dont. They never asked for anything we sent them already...not even my sons birth cert. Just wanted to verify original marriage cert. Wanted copies of joint assets and pictures. Thats it!

Hello everyone,

 

I was wondering if there's anyone missed their interview and successfully rescheduled it? Any suggestions are highly appreciated!

 

Here is what happened. On Nov. 12th, the website showed that the interview is scheduled so we had been patiently waiting for the notice. Nothing had come so we called USCIS several times. The customer service told us that the notice had not been mailed out yet. On Jan. 29th, we finally got the notice saying the interview is schedule on Jan. 16th. Apparently, the field office didn't put the apartment number so the notice was returned to USCIS. We didn't show up on our interview. 😫

After that, we contacted USCIS and they sent the field office to reschedule our interview. The field office sent us an email requesting the evidence and written letter for the reason why the interview needs to be rescheduled. We did so and send the mail to the field office. 

 

The question is now, what can we do to get the interview rescheduled as soon as possible? It seems that no infopass is allowed from the website anymore...

 

Please share if you have similar experiences. Thank you in advance!

I'm sorry you're going through that! It's clearly not your fault. I'm sure they will reschedule. If it happens that they think your evidence is not enough or refuse to schedule a new interview, I would contact Congressman/Senator/Ombudsman and ask for their help. USCIS says all their calls are recorded, so you can use that too... saying you called before asking for the date and no one has informed you. But I'm sure you won't need to get to that point. 

 

You mentioned the Office is not taking any appointments, but in your case I think I would try a walk-in and see what happens. They might refuse to let you in but at least you tried.

 

Just gotta be patient now (I know... We're done with patience here! But hang in there!) and wait for a new interview date. This wasn't your fault so they will have to reschedule. I don't see why they wouldn't.

 

Good luck and keep us posted on how it goes!

Today we had our interview for my Green Card at the Sacramento office  at 8 o'clock in the morning. We got their way early and it was freezing outside. We had all our documents with us and we were over prepared for it. We waited a while, because apparently we noticed that they want to deal with all the applicants to U.S. citizenship path. Soon came our turn and we spent about 30 - 45 minutes with the officer. I honestly thought it went by really fast, but the officer was extremely nice and she had to do our job. The questions were basically about us on how we met till the time we've spent together before and after marriage. She didn't bother asking pictures. She ask me the 'yes' or 'no' questions from the I-485, which were pretty easy and went over some of the stuff the we filled in the I-485. Then she asked us for documents such as, affidavit of support like I-864, government ID's, EAD card, and other join documents to support our bonafide marriage. Other than that, she was really nice and also had a nice conversations. Hope this help for you all!

 

Good luck to you all and your time come soon.

We got scheduled for an interview after 10 months. I was 'almost' surprised as Philly has processing times stretching from 13.5 to 22 months.
My medical exam was in October 2017. Do you think I should redo it?  Did anybody here redo theirs?

Hi Guys,

 

I have to renew my EAD & AP card.  Here are a few questions.

 

• Do I file them together and mail the to the same place?
• Where do I send the packet? Chicago?
• Will the issue me a new Combo card or two separate documents?

I just want to confirm my thoughts.

 

Thanks

I would have the same questions if I had not gotten an interview notice! Maybe ask in a bigger forum, not just our group?
