Your I-485 has reached the interview stage, and you want to know what comes next. This guide explains the adjustment of status<\/a> interview at the Houston field office, step by step.<\/p>\n

Adjustment of status is a federal path to a green card for people already in the United States, according to the Migration Policy Institute<\/a>. The interview is a key step, and the notice tells you when and where to go.<\/p>\n

What an I-485 Interview Is and Who Needs to Attend<\/h2>\n

Every adjustment applicant must be interviewed by an immigration officer, with a few exceptions. The interview may be waived for a child under 14, for an applicant who is clearly ineligible, or when the agency decides an interview is unnecessary (8 C.F.R. \u00a7 245.6<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The notice controls the date, time, and place. USCIS must tell you the date, time, and location of any required appearance (8 C.F.R. \u00a7 103.2<\/a>). Read it the day it arrives, and confirm the office address and appointment time.<\/p>\n

An interview is a live meeting. A request for evidence is a written request for more papers. If USCIS asks for more evidence, its processing clock pauses until it receives your response.<\/p>\n\n
