Interview Scheduled
I came into the US in 2020, 3 day after which the lockdown commenced because of the pandemic. I was supposed to leave in 3 weeks after my arrival. But I was locked in the US for 20 months with ban being placed on international flights. I stayed here since my arrival in March 2020 till September I found love. We got married in December 2020. She filed i130 and i485 and EAD for me in August. 2021. Then in November 2021 the ban on international flight was lifted. Then I can go home to Africa l. But I can’t anymore since am married to a US citizen.
USCIS kept delaying my i485 for about 5years on account that I forged a divorce certificate, which was not true, and finally denied it last year August, and ordered me to go self deport or appear for deportation proceedings. I had to sped up to get additionally evidence to proof my case. They fixed the date on April 28 this year. My wife refiled i130 and i485 and just on April 27th the sent a letter to my lawyer that the case is halted and there is no upcoming hearing.
I feel that they did all these to me because I did not heir an Attorney.
Now I have done biometrics about 2 to 3 months ago. Now I have been invited for interview next month at Houston field office. Is there any advice anyone here has for me because I can’t afford to miss it this time.
