Case File Review Notice/Interview Document Check List

[royjmcclymont 0]

Good Day All,

I received in the mail today the following notice:

[/color]

After a complete review of your file and Application for Naturalization (Form N-400), this office has found additional documentation may be needed. Unless previously submitted, please bring the below requested documents to your naturalization interview. etc etc

My issue with this notice is not what I need to bring to the interview, rather I have not received an interview letter yet - is this normal? Do they always send this notice before they send interview notice, or is it likely that I have already been sent an interview notice and it has been lost by my faithful friends at USPS? Any knowledge or experience of this scenario would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Roy McClymont

Chances are that above notice may be sent from local DO.

Interview letter is usually sent from service center for initial interview.

You may want to check with USCIS whether they scheduled for initial interview, and sent interview letter.

Because two different unit working on their own time schedule, service center may send interview letter later than above notice mailing out.

So for answer to your question, you have to call USCIS to find out what's going on.

I would check with USCIS, because we got the same checklist but it arrived 4 days after the interview letter. Well I guess that is not a huge difference so it still could be in the mail, but I would give them a call regardless, especially if you don’t get it within the next couple days.

Very basic about dealing with USCIS is "Don't assume for anything!"

They may make mistake, or lost your file.

If you have any doubt, you have to check with them.

And if you have interview, you have to bring every documents and evidences with you.

When you get into interview place, they may say, "Oooops! we lost your file, so we can not process your case until we find it!"

So make the copy of everything you submitted, and keep the record of what you've sent.

Don't give any excuse for them to delay your case processing.

But also, don't make them overload with too much information, too.

They are human. So if you dump all of information to them, they may hate you because of the amount of waste you are dumping to them. ^^

So have everything in handy, so if they ask for it, you can be ready to present it without any hesistance.

you are going to have the biometrics on the 19th of August, right?

i doubt they sent the interview letter before even having the biometrics done. they only schedule interviews after the FBI name check, which is done after biometrics.

All, I had the biometrics done in July. I gave them a call today, and they said to expect an interview letter shortly - within the next 30 days most likely. Thanks for everyones advice. Cheers, Roy.

I also received the same letter from Lee's Summit, MO last week. I was excited that I may be getting my interview letter soon. I've been checking my mailbox eagerly every day but it's not there yet.

My N-400 PD is 07/11/08 at CSC Los Angeles DO. Had my fingerprints done 08/01/08. I can't wait to get that Interview Letter if it's ever coming soon!
