    Study Notes

    USCIS Interview Procedure

    • After the USCIS interview, review the USCIS Form I-590, USCIS Record of Changes, or USCIS Record of Reinterview to determine pending actions.

    USCIS Adjudicative Hold

    • If USCIS sends an adjudicative hold, no further RSC action is required; wait for the final USCIS result from Global.

    Case Review and Update

    • USCIS does not perform a field-by-field review of existing case members unless instructed to do so or if a new derivative spouse and/or child is added to the case.
