I693 not ready for interview

[Jun2580 27]

I was wondering what will happen if you don't have your I693 ready before the AOS interview.

 

Let's say you have sent in all other required documents and the only thing left required to send is I693. My lawyer told me I don't need to send it as long as you can take it with you on the interview date.

What will happen if my doctor cannot give me the I693 on time because he is on a long vacation or something and the interview date arrives first...

 

Does this mean an instant denial without having any choice? Or will the interview still take place and you will be asked to send the I693 immediately once ready, until which you cannot get the result of the interview?

Interviewing officer will issue an RFE post-interview and give you time to mail it in.

By the way the interview notice comes 4-5 weeks before the actual interview date. The medical exam takes 2-3 days so you have plenty of time to research civil surgeons and see who is available.

I know this is a somewhat old post, but here are my two cents.

When I received the interview notice I wasn't able to get an appointment for the medical examination before the interview date. Also, I live in a small town and my lab work had to be sent out to an external lab, so it took more than 2-3 days. In my case, a RFE was issued at the interview, giving me around 3 months to send the i-693 in.
