Re: Interview
It depends on where your application was filed, and where your interview will be. Once your fingerprints have been cleared or 180 days has passed since your application has been pending, then the application is sent to the local office for scheduling.
Each interview is different. Sometimes the application will be approved the day of the interview, sometimes a week later, or sometimes the officer will recommend that you be sent to another interview. You may want to consider speaking with an attorney prior to the interview.
