My husband was scheduled for his Naturalization interview on Wednesday. It was a three hour drive and they notified us after arriving that they would not be able to do his interview because of a problem with his A-number. Prior to leaving our town, we checked the website, everything looked good - they updated it later in the day.
We knew there was an A-number problem because of our attempts at ROC - however we felt it had been sorted out, as his interview had been scheduled.
This is the problem:
K1 filed - A number 211 assigned. (K1 ultimately put into AP/expired)
I-130 filed - A number 211 still used
When receiving letter for CR1 interview, A-number listed as 022 number.
Visa received, entry into the US, handwritten 022 number in passport.
Green card received, 022 number on green card.
Filed ROC November 2022 using 022 number - at some point USCIS contacted my husband to let him know that his correct A-number was the 211 one.
Received 18 month extension letter with the 211 number. Filed N-400 (Nov 2021) using the 211 number.
1st Biometrics done - using the 211 number (for Naturalization).
Received 24 month extension letter - now with an A-834 number (we honestly didn't realize it at the time)
2nd Biometrics done - using the A-834 number (for ROC).
Received Naturalization Interview letter - 211 number listed.
So it was cancelled because of the "A number mismatch" but we have no idea (other than to wait) what to do about this.
It wasn't an error or anything we did wrong - but it's delaying the ROC and the Naturalization. Our case status when we log in now gives us an estimate of 8 months until our case is approved - but it already HAD been approved.
Any idea how we can fix this? I've reached out to Senator's office for some guidance, signed the ROI and waiting for a response from them.
