No picture and fingerprints were taken beside the interview?

Nope. And now that you are asking, I remember that the officer was using those protective gloves.

@Visitor User

I been arrested 13 times. Been to prison for marijuana. Was in removal proceedings, won cancellation of removal gov appealed I won again in BIA. Been in America since 89 since I was 9 months. All the documents are in my volumious A-file file. I had my interview last year in Aug they denied me the officer had my release dates wrong so I refilled instead of appealing. Appeals can take up to a year. I refilled a week after the last denial all those docs are conjured together. My last interview was only literally 5 min the supervisor knew it was a mistake the interview prior to the current one  I did request a name change though I heard those take a lil longer to get oath ceremony dates. My delay is related to supervisor rechecking my file and verifying everything. You’re going to be fine relax. 😎

I think he was wearing those gloves to be prepared to take fingerprints. But all he did was go swear me in and check my documents before starting the interview.

@Visitor User I Anglolized my name and when I was young I grew up in a kinda racist town the cops use to mess with me for no reason. Most of the charges got dismissed. Mostly weed I had sleep apnea and adhd I was medicating myself.

I had to go to a window where people are seated to take photo and fingerprints.

That is a good point. I remember going to those windows once many years ago when I had the work visa. But no, like I said, he shouted my name, I walked towards him and he took me inside the hallways. Maybe it was because I did biometrics recently? I just hope that won't be an issue...

I think they will use your last biometric picture.

My interview was on 3/21/24 but my case tracker hasn’t changed from ‘Interview was Scheduled’.  

Has anyone had an interview on or after 3/21/24 had their status changed in their USCIS account?
