Fields to collect for this checklist
The point of this checklist is to slow down the filing process long enough to verify facts.
Green Card Interview worksheet steps
| Step | Why |
|---|---|
| Sort by agency | USCIS, EOIR, State Department, ICE, CBP, and DOL documents should not be mixed together. |
| Mark the next deadline | A missed green card interview response, interview, hearing, or filing date can change the case. |
| Attach source records | Receipts, notices, refusal sheets, and official instructions are stronger than memory. |
| Keep a clean copy | Green Card Interview records may be needed again for future filings, motions, renewals, or interviews. |

this checklist limits
The checklist can help you prepare relationship, identity, and admissibility records, but it cannot decide eligibility, strategy, admissibility, credibility, or court risk. Those conclusions depend on the actual notices, prior filings, deadlines, and personal history behind the records.
