Interview AOS, passport

[Jad19888 2]

Hello, 

I just got my interview notice for AOS k1 and I 'm april filler, they asking me to bring passport that I used when I  entered to the United states, but this passport is already expired and I sent it to my embassy to renew it(you have to send the expired passport with application and they return you new one and old one) I called embassy about how long it takes and they said at least 7 weeks so I will not have it for my AOS interview, do you think that is ok if I don't take the expired passport with me to interview, I have copy of this passport that's enough. Thank you

If the IO mentions it just explain that you sent it to your embassy for renewal process.

Yes,  the old one is returned but this does take time

as the old one is sent to Morocco for processing the new one

mail to and from Morocco and back to you takes time / 7 weeks is probably a hopeful time / with covid ,  it may be longer

glad you kept the copy as it will show your visa entry and that it actually expired / hope you did copy the visa page too not just the profile page
