Interview Waived

[The_Empyrean 733]

It's me again.

Some quick questions, i've read about AoS interviews being waived. But most of these threads are 1-2year old. Anyone had their interview waived recently? Does it shorten or extend the wait for GC? Is there something that gets you a pass to be more likely waived for interview? (apart for being K-1) It's a bit confusing, as it seem random? Nothing with USCIS is random lol

Thanks!

The USCIS policy to waive K1 AOS interviews ended a few years ago. They are required now with the exception of a rare occasion outlined in the policy manual. Expect an interview. 99.9999999% chance.
