I rescheduled my interview
Hi fellow fillers
I have been following this site for over 4 years now and I appreciated every entry and experience. That is why I wanted to share this as there is not enough coverage on this subject.
I am Dallas filler, and I received my notice for citizenship interview after more then a year of waiting. I received it exactly a month before the scheduled interview. The problem was, I had a ticket to fly home to visit my family and my flight was leaving 7 days before the interview. I called the airline right away, but changing or cancelling my ticket was just too expensive. So following day, I took the interview notice, my itinerary and ticket, and wrote a letter begging USCIS to reschedule it and couriered it to the USCIS Office. Also, I scheduled INFOPASS just to make sure I get that one-on-one interaction on the matter as well. The earliest they had available was 2 weeks after I sent the letter, and 3 days before my travel. I thought I will hear from them by then, but nope! No word from USCIS or change in my online status. So I go to my INFOPASS schedule and explain this nice lady my situation, I brought copies of everything I mailed. She said we have right to reschedule any interview ONCE and there will be no issues at all! She told me that the officer will not mail anything back until the day of the original interview. She assured me million times that I am good to go and I can take my flight home. So I did! After I got back, there was a new notice for interview in my mailbox - for exacly one month later!
The reason why I wrote this is because all: "Don't do it"; "You will wait forever for reschedule", etc posts. It is perfectly normal to live a life while waiting, and immigration officers are aware of it. I didn't have any emergency reasons to travel, just that I didn't see my family in a year. And they were okay with that. Like really normal and okay!
My new appointment is coming up - so keep your fingers crossed for me and good luck to all :)
