Just wondering, how long did it take for your permit work to get approved? I'm still waiting on mine and getting anxious.

I went through something similar a few months ago! The key thing is to make sure your new attorney has filed the proper paperwork (Form G-28) to officially represent you. Once that's on file, USCIS should automatically send everything to your new attorney's address instead of the old one. For the apartment number issue, I'd suggest calling back and asking the agent to read your address exactly as it appears in their system. Sometimes there are formatting quirks that cause problems - like if there's an extra space or missing punctuation. You might also want to consider updating your address online through your USCIS account just to be absolutely sure everything matches up. Don't stress too much though - even if there's a mix-up, these things can usually be sorted out. The important thing is that your permit got approved! 🎉

Hey Elliott! I just went through my naturalization interview last month after a reschedule, so I totally get the anxiety! Here's what I learned: the reschedule itself is usually no big deal - mine was moved because the officer had a family emergency. What really helped me was using the extra time to practice my civics questions again (if you're doing N-400) and reviewing my application line by line. I also made sure to check my online account regularly for any updates. One unexpected thing - bring a pen! They might ask you to fill out a quick form on the spot. The officers are generally very understanding and professional. Try not to overthink it - you've already done the hard part of getting to this stage! 🤞

Hey Elliott! I went through a similar situation about 8 months ago and I know how nerve-wracking it can be. The good news is that rescheduling is actually super common - sometimes it's officer availability, office capacity, or even just administrative reasons. Here's what helped me get through it: 1) Use this extra time as a gift to double-check everything, 2) Print out fresh copies of all your documents (some of mine were getting a bit worn), and 3) Do a mock interview with someone you trust. I actually found that being rescheduled made me more prepared in the end! Also, don't hesitate to call USCIS if you have specific questions - sometimes they can give you peace of mind about whether anything has changed. You're so close to the finish line, hang in there! 💪

Hey Andre! I went through a similar situation when my husband was deployed with the Marines. One thing that really helped was creating a timeline of your relationship with photos and documents - like when you first met, got engaged, married, etc. The officers love seeing that kind of organization. Also, if your wife has any commendation letters or awards from her service, bring those too - it shows her good standing in the military. You've got this! The fact that you're preparing so thoroughly already puts you ahead of the game. 💪

Just went through this process myself! One thing I'll add that hasn't been mentioned yet - bring copies of EVERYTHING in addition to originals. USCIS sometimes keeps copies and you don't want to be stuck without your documents. Also, if your wife is currently deployed or stationed overseas, make sure you have a power of attorney document - it can be super helpful if they need her signature on anything during the process. The interview itself isn't as scary as it seems, they're just trying to verify your relationship is genuine. Stay calm and answer honestly. Wishing you all the best! 🤞

Protip: If you cant get through on the phone, try contacting your local congressperson's office. They often have liaisons who can help with USCIS issues.

Another option if you can't get through by phone - try the USCIS online case inquiry system (e-Request). You can submit a request explaining that you need to update your attorney information and ensure your approved work permit is sent to the correct address. It takes longer than calling, but at least you'll have a paper trail of your request. Also, make sure your new attorney has filed a G-28 (Notice of Entry of Appearance) if they haven't already - that officially establishes them as your representative with USCIS.

Hey OP, I'm in the exact same boat. Changed attorneys mid-process and it's been a nightmare. Let me know if you figure out a solution!

I went through something similar last year! When I switched attorneys, my EAD card actually got sent to my home address (the one on file with USCIS) rather than either attorney. The key thing is that USCIS typically defaults to sending documents to the applicant's address unless there's an active G-28 on file. Since your old attorney's G-28 was withdrawn and your new one hasn't filed theirs yet, you should be good. But definitely have your new attorney file that G-28 ASAP to avoid any future confusion with other documents!
