Postpone Interview for Green Card. Military Training

[DaniPG 0]

Hello, I am wondering about this: My husband is on military training right now in another state, he cannot come back home for my Green Card Interview. I called the Military Help Line,and one of the ladies told me to submit my husband's orders, a letter explaining why my husband couldn't come, asking for a new date for the interview and a copy of the request to appear for initial interview. I sent all that info last week, as soon as I got the interview paper through mail. And I've been waiting for an answer, but I haven't heard back from USCIS yet. I tracked the package and it got there safely (I sent it to USCIS Santa Clara, where my interview is supposed to be). Now, I'm wondering, The interview is on NOVEMBER 14, next week. Should I go by myself even if my husband is not with me? This is a little bit stressful right now. I would like to hear if other military spouses have attended the interview alone, without their husband/wife.

Thank you.

I would go with a copy of the orders. Explain the situation and see if either you can continue with the interview alone, or reschedule

good luck

Good advice. Also bring evidence (printout of the tracking page) that you already gave USCIS notice that he would be unable to attend.

Hi! I might be going through the same situation. We are waiting on the interview notice however my husband is going to a 6 month training starting Jan, 2014. If the interview is scheduled after his departure date, I will have to either reschedule or go there by myself. Please let me know how things go with you!
