Interview Was Scheduled

💬 Interview scheduled, you'll receive a notice by mail!

What it means

USCIS scheduled an interview for your case. The notice states the date, time and office, and lists what to bring.

What happens next

Watch for the notice and attend. Missing an interview without rescheduling can lead to a denial.

This means you will need to attend an interview with a USCIS officer to further discuss your application. You will be provided with the details and documents to bring. Make sure to prepare in advance.

Is this the status on your case?

Ask me. I'll walk you through what it means for you, with data from the cases I follow.

My status says "Interview Was Scheduled". What does it mean for my case? What usually happens after "Interview Was Scheduled", and how long does it take? What should I do if I have "Interview Was Scheduled" and nothing arrives?
