    US Citizen asked to appear at local office?

    I am so happy to hear that this letter generated such a lively debate! I can understand since it is indeed a strange letter and at first we thought that it was sent out by accident. Yes, she is a grandmother and all her children and grandchildren live here. She really is harmless (but very...

    US Citizen asked to appear at local office?

    Thanks all again! I think the better advice is to mail a copy of the certificate. Her current certificate has the correct date she took her oath but apparently another certificate, as explained by the IO, was created for the first ceremony that she missed (well, which she never received the...

    US Citizen asked to appear at local office?

    Wow! Thank you all so much for your advice/responses. Some sound scarier than others, i.e. revoke her certificate. I also wanted to mention that a certificate was created for the first ceremony that she missed. So maybe the office wants to compare/check something with her current certificate...

    Thank you so much Bobsmyth and vdostoi1! We checked her certificate and everything is in order (correct A#, correct full legal name, signed by USCIS offical, correct stamp from USCIS, etc.).

    hi xerostomic- from what i know all fb-1's need an interview (unless things change). i don't know how long it takes from 485 to interview. it really depends on so many things- where you live, background check, RFE's, so there is no guideline. for some reason mine was fast and so is ULTRON's.

    I wanted to update you on my FB-1 interview I had on 1/27. It was at 9:10 am and the officer saw us at 9:40 and we were out a little bit before 10:00. I just showed the officer my EAD, AP, passport and DL and my petitioner showed Natz Certificate and DL. The officer went through the 485 form...
