Should I attend i-751 interview after getting new card?

 Share

Hello Everyone,

 

My RoC (I-751) application was approved in July 2024, and I received my new 10-year green card shortly after, without an interview.

 

In September, I received a notice that my N-400 (Naturalization) interview was scheduled. However, last week, I received another letter inviting me for an I-751 interview, even though I already have the approval and the physical card in hand.

 

My question is: am I required to still attend the I-751 interview?

 

I understand that it doesn’t hurt to attend the interview (combo). I’m just looking for input from those who have been in the same situation and what they ended up doing.

Just go to ur Citizenship interview. Sometimes their records get all messed up. But I would also call them or get online talk to a live agent through EMMA and tell them your I751 is already approved.

Make sure to go to both appointments.

Make sure to bring your spouse and marital evidence.

Bring approval I-751 notice and GC to both appointments. The chances are, I-751 won't be conducted the moment officer sees approval notice. But I'd show up to avoid any issues of USCIS accusing you of not coming to the interview.

 

Especially go to I-751 appointment if it's scheduled before N-400. The chances are, they'll use this timeslot to perform N-400 interview and naturalize you on that day.

Thanks for the advice guys. I prepared for both RoC and Naturalization interviews. Only the Naturalization one was done.

This was by far the easiest experience in my whole immigration journey. I also had an oath ceremony on the same day. 

 

Done and Dusted!
