My Vawa base I -485 interview
My interview was scheduled for Wednesday July 9, 2025, @8am at the USCIS Minneapolis office. My lawyer and I arrived 30 minutes before the scheduled time. At 8am, when it was time to meet the interviewer, were told by a USCIS staff that they tried contacting my lawyer two weeks ago through email and text that we weren't to turn out yesterday. Immediately, my lawyer told them that he didn't received any communications of such through any of the mediums mentioned. now they talking about rescheduling. This is sad.
