“Interview Was Scheduled”: what it means
USCIS has booked your interview and is mailing the notice with the date and office.
What this status means
Your case has an interview date at a USCIS field office. The notice lists the time, the address and what to bring.
What usually happens next
- You attend the interview. Some cases are decided on the day; others need more review or a request for evidence afterwards.
What to do now
- Read the interview notice carefully and bring every document it lists, plus the notice itself and a photo ID.
- If you truly can’t attend, follow the rescheduling instructions on the notice as early as possible. Missing an interview without rescheduling can lead to a denial.
- Bring an interpreter if the notice allows it and you need one.
