On March 18, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services temporarily suspended in-person services at its field offices, asylum offices, and Application Support Centers (ASCs) to help slow the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). USCIS offices will reopen on April 7 unless the public closures are extended further. Employees in these offices are continuing to perform mission-essential services that do not require face-to-face contact with the public.
USCIS will continue to provide
limited emergency services. Please call the Contact Center for
assistance with emergency services.
USCIS field offices will send
notices to applicants and petitioners with scheduled appointments and
naturalization ceremonies impacted by the extended closure. USCIS asylum
offices will send interview cancellation notices and automatically reschedule
asylum interviews. When the interview is rescheduled, asylum applicants will
receive a new interview notice with the new time, date and location of the
interview. When USCIS again resumes normal operations, USCIS will automatically
reschedule ASC appointments due to the office closure. You will receive a new
appointment letter in the mail. Individuals who had InfoPass or other
appointments must reschedule through the USCIS Contact Center once
field offices are open to the public again. Please check to see if your field office has been
reopened before reaching out to the USCIS Contact Center.
Education and precautions are
the strongest tools against infection. Get the latest facts by visiting the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s COVID-19 website. Continue
to practice good health habits, refrain from handshakes or hugs as greetings,
and wash hands and clean surfaces appropriately.
USCIS
will provide further updates as the situation develops and will continue to
follow CDC guidance. Please also visit uscis.gov/coronavirus for
updates.
