Good plan Ghanta Bro - very good!
Oh my! look at your history! Why am I complaining? :-(
Did they tell you why they cancelled you nice interview?
I am in a worse situation... they have not scheduled my interview yet... I planned to fart feeling your pain man.
AH you meant INLINEAGAIN... yeah he got cancelled once and second time the interviewer had upset stomach and shitted in her pants so she had to leave from work... he is still waiting.
Sorry to hear about the cancellation Nimche. There really is no rhyme or rhythm to how USCIS works.
I think since you scheduled an InfoPass, you should go as planned and if they tell you its canceled - ask them why. Also ask nicely whether or not your file is at the DO and when you should expect an new IL.

thank you for your sympathy and thanks others as well.
At least we can watch Lost again
Nimche,
I would appear at the originally scheduled interview. The security people will not know that your appt has been cancelled. When you check in, play dumb. When I went for my wife's oath ceremony, I went over and asked a few questions at the interview check-in window. My interview was about 2-3 weeks away. When I mentioned that we were planning a trip to Canada in the near future, and that I was worried that I would not have my passport in time, they attempted to change my interview to the next day (which was a Saturday). The only reason why they were not able to do it was that my file had not arrived from the Texas Service Center yet.
Give it a try, you may get lucky and get an earlier appt. May not be the same day, but it just might be moved ahead.
Good luck, let us know what happens.

Thank you for giving me hope. I definitly appreciate these moment of my sadness which I get + energy from you guys.
I will try it, I hope for the best.
Have fun at your Oath Ceremony. Don't drink too much.

It made me sad to read this thread, Nimche. What an utterly maddening experience.
I have a bad feeling that this may happen more frequently as the expanded interview hours are implemented. They are dumping a tremendous workload on the new adjudicators and expecting them to work extra-long hours for bonuses. The inevitable result of that will be scheduling commitments that can't be kept.
If they had an ounce of a sense of justice, when this sort of thing happened they would bump somebody from an interview slot on your scheduled day who didn't need it as badly and could afford to wait longer--say, somebody with a 90 day timeline.

Thanks for your sympathy and sorry to made you sad.
It really sucks and I am still scratching my head in state of shock.
Everything happened with sadness. First my uncle went to SICU and poor guys is still there in state of coma which I am not really sure if he is going to survive and now, this sh*t.
Anybody else experienced such a thing, people please help. I have about two more weeks to my initial interview.
Thank you guys all..
I feel really bad that you have to deal with this s--t. Hang in there, buddy. I hope your new IL arrives within a couple of weeks.
That's a really scary thought. The possibility of having to deal with them through a WOM seems more and more real.

Interview Cancelled
Even my citizenship interview which was on April 10th was cancelled on March 25th. So far no new interview date has been assigned. What I found out after some persistent inquiry is that my file has not yet been sent to Washington DO. I'm also desperately waiting for a new interview date. Looks like there's nothing we can do, except take some info passes, write letters. This sucks!

Thats seems to be a common occurrence; interviews being canceled due to case file not being transfered to DO. I would send the Ombudsman an email about this as to let them know there's a disconnect between the interview notices sent out and the case file not being transfered to the DO in some cases.

The strange thing is - when I was talking to the info pass guy, he retrieved my info and said that my file is in NY and he also said that it's not yet been requested. So I'm not sure why my file is in NY, and also why it hasent been requested. I dont know if they are waiting for anything before requesting for my file. Does anyone know how to contact FBI to find out if my name check has been done/cleared. Then I can nail down the cancellation - to the file not yet been received by DO.
You can't contact the FBI about the status of your name check, you have to call USCIS and speak with an IO for that. Your file probably wasn't sent by the service center for some other reason.
Well,
I didn't have FBI problem. In my both first Infopasses I asked the IO about my namecheck and they said it seems to have no problem and it is cleared.
So probably my case is still in California Service Center and has not been transferred to my DO?
I should go pick it up myself and bring it before May 8.

Yeah, I mean the CSC is right here in Orange County, in Laguna Niguel. How hard can it be to transfer the file 70 miles to San Diego? USCIS efficiency at its finest. Good luck with everything, Nimche...I was sorry to see that your interview got de-scheduled at San Diego - your timeline was really pretty good until that happened. Hope they re-schedule you soon.
I lived in Laguna Niguel close to CSC for 1 year and moved to Lake Forest after that. I love that area but recently because of this I feel that USCIS in general won't be able to function well at all in future.
Do you guys think for a way I can call the Service Center and ask them about this?
