I need some info or share they're experience  if they have been in the same situation like mine. We moved to different states and did my change of address yet they schedule my Interview to the field office where I live before. 3 months after I changed my address. So I called USCIS about my situation, they advice me to do the info pass and send a letter along with my original interview notice to my old field office. 30 days passed since I did my infopass and sent the letter didnt recieve any reply from them so I called again, the second person I was talking too just told me to wait for the letter of "no show" in my mail box and follow the instructions in there. Now I'm worried whether my applications is already been transferred to Dallas field office or not? Should I send them another letter and do infopass again?

When you updated your address, did you receive a confirmation letter in the mail at your new address from them to acknowledge the address change? Did they acknowledge that your new and current address is the one they see on file? I changed my address in the middle of N400. We had just been scheduled at the old field office for an interview, but that was automatically cancelled when we changed our address. Then we had to wait 3 months to be scheduled a new interview at our nearby field office. But we received a letter about the address change plus a notice saying our case was being moved to the new field office long before we heard anything about the interview. 

 

Are you concurrently doing an I-751? We learned that only our N400 address updated when we submitted online so later we called USCIS and they were able to update our records over the phone. Seems strange to me they would have you send a letter to the local field office rather than doing it over the phone, but I am not that knowledgeable about processes. I would call USCIS back again and speak with a L2 officer. Sorry I can't offer much advice.

Yes I got a confirmation number by email also a letter and no I-751. How long did it take for them to send a letter stating that your case is being transferred to local field office near you? They didn't cancelled my schedule they put "No Show" instead.

I think it might have been only a few days later. Interview was cancelled Feb 15, same day notice that interview was being scheduled (at new field office). I believe a letter followed that a couple days later that said basically the same thing and listed my new local field office. Then nothing for a long time and 3 months later we got a notice with the new interview date. Our original appointment was scheduled and cancelled in quick succession because we had just submitted an address change when we were scheduled for the interview, so the date was still a month away. Maybe an infopass at your local field office would be helpful.

Well that's what I'm expecting is to get my interview cancelled since there is 1 month window before my appointment date but the Chicago field office most likely ignored my request. I called USCIS and they told me to just wait for No show letter and send an explanation letter why I didnt show up to my appointment. And it seems it's also depend on field office how fast they process the transfer of my case to my new field office.
