Hi, USCIS scheduled an AOS interview with me on Aug but because of personal reason, i had to reachedule it. They recently send me a letter for an make-up interview in the next weeks. i am wondering if the officer will ask me why did I reschedule the earlier interview date as i am afraid that i then have to explain them all the reasons? Or they dont have a record regarding if I reschedule or they dont even care? thanks
If it was a personal reason say so
I apply the GC with my wife. Do u know if they interview us together or separate? If haven't told my wife that i had to schedule the first one. I don't want to tell her if it is not necessary.
Just go in and ask fo speak with a supervisor (do not speak with regular officers while trying to reschedule as they will waste your time) Supervisors will usually reschedule for you fast enough. They’ll also want to know why you missed the first appointment.
No, I don't want to reschedule this time. I just want to tell my wife that we missed the first interview and it is actually the second one. She has no idea that it is actually the rescheduled interview. She still thinks that it is the first time we hear from USCIS.
Oh I see. From experience, it’s always good to be in line. If USCIS officer asks and she is not aware they may hold it against you but that’s usually more for naturalization.
What’s your priority date? L1?
Yes, mine is current. L1
They'll know it was rescheduled. They can ask if they feel like it. Most would ask as an ice breaker. They're not usually looking for a detailed answer just a basic understanding of what happened. If you rescheduled in advance it should be no big deal. If you no showed you'll have to balance needing them to understand with your comfort level explaining a personal situation.
