Gurus, need some help here and would really appreciate any answers.

After filing for I-485 for more than 2 years, today both my spouse and I got a package from USCIS asking us to do a fingerprint. This notice looks different from our first (and only) finger print request two years ago.

Here are some questions:

1. It says "INS must send my fingerprints to the FBI to continue processing my I-485". Didn't they get my finger print last time? What is the purpose for multiple-fingerprint?

2. The package also comes with a request for a visit to USCIS local office, asking us to ask for "immigration examiner". Is this an "interview"? What does it involve?What should I expect? How long does it usually take? I have to teach two hours after the set time--do you guys think it is sufficient?

3. The package also comes with an overwhelmingly long I-864 form. What is thta? Do I need to pay attention to anything completing the form?

4. Another form comes with it is a medical examination form (form I-693). We did a medical exam for I-485 when I submitted the I-485 about two years ago. Do we need to do it again and ask our doc to fill it up?

I know I may be able to find some answers from the forum, but i am tooooo beaten by my teaching schedule--so I greatly appreciate anyone who can help.

Many many thanks!
