Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview
Does anybody has experience with their case status update “ Case is ready to be scheduled for an interview “ even though i had interview last year but it was during retrogression, officer said everything looks good and it will be approved when current visa number, i read somewhere this status is just generic and sometimes they can just approve it without calling for a second interview.

FINALLY GREENEDSep 15, 2025
@The Khali Reinterviewing is a trend right now. It doesn't matter if you have already been interviewed in the past or not.

The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@BYE USCIS Done Yeah, i guess depends from case to case my coworker got approved without interview

@The Khali my friend had his 2nd interview this last Tuesday. He got denied because he wasn’t working. During his first interview he was working and I remember he said he gave a paystub in his first interview. But during second interview, he wasn’t working and his case got denied because of that.

It may be to cross check new details that wasn’t checked in last interview. since your last interview, has your pd been correct again?
a
abbb 2021Sep 15, 2025
@The Khali still your interview hasn’t been scheduled yet?
sam samSep 15, 2025
@april 19 2021 what was the reason for denial. Your friend didn’t take the supplement-J during the interview? His employer didn’t signed his supplement-J ?
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@abbb 2021 not yet since September 4th. same status

@The Khali when was your first interview? I have completed my 1st interview on April 2024, Afterthat no update about my case. PD is November 2020. I submitted all documents during 1st interview like paystubs , job verification letter, W2 and F1 maintaining documents. Is there any chance to get 2nd interview for me ?
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@Alex brown Same my interview was in end of April 2024, i give them also supJ and i asked officer will i have a second interview once retrogression is over and he told me no, everything looks good i will approve it.
a
abbb 2021Sep 15, 2025
@The Khali same 2021 may pd. did interview july 2024. all documents where submitted, paystub but last interview waiver got cancelled then the new interview was scheduled 4 days ago. lots of people are getting this update lately ultimately up to field office now to decide
GB BSep 15, 2025
@The Khali same here! and it has been 85 days.. I requested a tier 2 call and agent told me interview still can be waived.
GB BSep 15, 2025
@B M omg! what’s your field office? mine is in the same status 85 days and I thought I was the only one. have you tried all resources like service request and congress?
Bk MSep 15, 2025
@GB B Milwaukee FO. I am not current so I didn’t try congress. I tried service request, but didn’t help.
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@GB B We still need to wait till October now visa limit has been reached, they can’t do anything till October. Service request is useless. i hope they just approve us since we already had interview.
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@B M That explains probably it will just get approved once you are current
A
Alex brown Sep 15, 2025
@The Khali I don’t know why they are scheduling for 2nd interview? even though we maximum submitted all documents during 1st interview. i already left a job recently. no plan to join again.
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@Alex brown But this case “ case ready to be scheduled for interview “ means that field office has again your case it’s just generic update, and it’s in the queue for interview scheduling, i guess they can still see in field office that you had interview if agent is still there that worked on our cases. that’s my hope
A
Alex brown Sep 15, 2025
@The Khali your point is logical. what was your i485 status before interview schedule update ? Mine is fingerprints were taken………… after completed interview.
PD: Oct 2021Sep 15, 2025
already gave interview and also received RFE about a week after interview but status still same “ready to be scheduled for interview“.
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@Alex brown case remains pending
T
The KhaliSep 15, 2025
@PD: Oct 2021 probably will get approved when your PD is current if you’re unskilled applicant.

@The Khali I just received case ready to be scheduled for an interview today. I was interviewed back in 2023. I was not hoping for a second interview. 😐
w oSep 18, 2025
usually what they are looking for in a second interview? maybe check if you are still working for the employer?
T
The KhaliSep 18, 2025
@Random Unskilled Worker How was your first interview? mine was pretty straightforward, he verbally approved me, i even asked will i have second interview once retrogression is over and officer told me no.
T
The KhaliSep 18, 2025
@abbb 2021 and when you got first update “ case is ready to be scheduled “?
a
abbb 2021Sep 18, 2025
@The Khali sep 10 i got case is ready to be scheduled
R
Random Unskilled WorkerSep 18, 2025
@The Khali It was pretty straightforward, basic yes no questions from the I485. The officer said that’s all she needed from me. I guess this is some kind of administrative formality at the moment. Are you still employed?
sharmeen moonaSep 18, 2025
@Lily C when was your changed to "interview ready to be scheduled" we are in Kansas city FO too.
Lily CSep 18, 2025

T
The KhaliSep 18, 2025
@abbb 2021 i got mine on Sep 4th but still not scheduled for an interview, it’s still on same update “ case is ready to be scheduled “ and Emma told me it’s processing and no interview date yet, but can’t tell me was interview waived but it is being assigned to the officer for a review that’s the latest update.
T
The KhaliSep 18, 2025
@Random Unskilled Worker That’s same as me on the first one, and was told it will be approved once priority date is current
sharmeen moonaSep 19, 2025

The KhaliSep 19, 2025

sharmeen moonaSep 22, 2025

sharmeen moonaOct 9, 2025
@Lily C anyone you know in Kansas city FO got interviewed recently and got approved? or know how the interview went?
Lily COct 10, 2025
@sharmeen moona Unfortunately no.. I have 2 friends that were interviewed in September, but there weren’t more visas available and their cases went to: case must be reviewed. They said that it was hard.. 😕
sharmeen moonaOct 10, 2025
@Lily C can you please ask them what was hard and what questions were asked? please 🙏🏻
