We are scheduled for 9/16 in Chicago too! We filed mid March and I was SHOCKED that we got through so fast! Congrats!

Question - going through AOS interview checklist and they need an I-693. Since our vaccination record is still less than a year old, can I just bring the form from the doctor, or do I need to fill out the 693 again?  And I can use the same I-864 that I already did for the Affidavit of Support right? I will add more paystubs but nothing else has changed.

Called USCIS yesterday and they couldn't check the status of our case because I did an online inquiry before calling. The guy was super nice, he said to wait for their response. Hopefully we will hear something from them.

Thanks, that is useful info.  I will call instead of submitting an online enquiry.

Charlotte, NC filers - How long after your interview being scheduled was the actual interview? Also, what all are you planning on bringing other than a copy of the original package?

Hi! I was planning to do the same thing, online inquiry and then call them. Did they tell you why they could not check if you file online inquiry first?

All they told us was since the inquiry was already filed, the case is closed already for inquiry meaning they can't open the case anymore. I believe they do this to avoid duplicate inquiry. I prefer calling them first.

So, okay. For those who have inquired by phone call FIRST. Did you able to submit an online inquiry as well?

They told us it's the same inquiry -- over the phone or online. So it doesn't help to do it twice. Phone seems to get a faster response. I was so hoping to wake up to something today but nothing so far

I think your receipt date has to be before the service request date, not the same day. It's currently March 22nd, so tomorrow you'll be past that and can send a request, I believe anyway.

The same date and still no news.. I’ll send request tomorrow, because tomorrow we’ll be outside normal processing time

Hey all. We got a RFE, actually no biggie. But it says on the bottom page 1 of 2 and we got only 1 page. Did anybody of you have the same issue? We will call USCIS but I'm freaking out at the moment.
