are not required to have an in person interview and
their interviews are conducted on the phone. If you meet certain
expedited service conditions you may be seen the

What if I miss the interview appointment?
It is important to keep the interview or report any hardships with completing an interview. It is up to you to reschedule missed appointments. If you do not appear for a pre-scheduled interview and no appointment to complete the interview is rescheduled, your application will be denied at the end of 30 days from the date of application. Once denied, you have to reapply.
