This document is an asylum interview notice from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This notice tells you when and where your asylum interview will be. The asylum interview is one of the last stages of the USCIS asylum process. During your interview, an asylum officer will ask you questions about your asylum case.
If you apply for asylum with USCIS, you should receive this asylum interview notice. If you are applying for asylum in immigration court, you will not receive this notice since that is a different process.
You need to bring this notice with you to your asylum interview. Please read any instructions that are attached to this notice. The instructions have the most current information.
If you cannot attend your interview, you can request to reschedule it. But it is possible that USCIS may not grant your request. Learn more here.
If you already missed your interview, read about the steps that you can take.
