I thought it was the interview. I just looked at the hard copy myself (out of town so my mom took a pic and sent to me). It's an appointment notice for the I-765 - application for employment authorization.



I didn't even know they did those. So we'll likely need to come back for this and then also another "final" interview?



I thought you only have one more possible appointment after you finished the biometrics. This is the same location where we did the biometrics. Why would we need to return to the same place just for the employment authorization? Is this typical?

Yeah. It's the Detroit office. Did they have you come in multiple times?

Is the appointment in the Detroit field office? I'm starting think Detroit just interviews everyone. They called me in for an interview for the I-130 petition which I didn't think was normal either. :/

Is biometrics mentioned in fine print somewhere in the appointment letter? Asking because of this thread. It would be easy to miss that if you're looking at a photo instead of the actual letter.

Eighteen years in the US and I still don't understand Velveeta, TV ads for prescription drugs, only getting 2 weeks paid vacation, or why anyone believes anything they see on Fox "News".
