Hello,

 

My cousin's husband was jailed and her interview is next month. She is freaking out? Any advice? Delay? Show up alone?

What was he jailed for?  Does he have bail?  I would go to the interview with proof that he's In jail.

Is he likely to still be there next month?

Traffic offences, driving on a suspended lisence...something dumb. Prob is he has probation from a previous thing he did 15 years ago.

3. Incarcerated Petitioners

In limited situations, USCIS may waive the personal appearance of a U.S. citizen spouse petitioner who is incarcerated and unable to attend the adjustment of status interview. In such situations, the adjustment applicant must appear for interview. An officer must take all the facts and evidence surrounding each case into consideration on a case-by-case basis when deciding to waive the U.S. citizen spouse petitioner’s appearance.
