U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will reopen some domestic offices to resume non-emergency services on June 4, 2020. USCIS suspended routine in-person services on March 18, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Previously scheduled appointments, interviews, and naturalization ceremonies that USCIS canceled will be automatically rescheduled. Individuals will receive a new appointment letter in the mail from USCIS that outlines new safety requirements in accordance with guidelines provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. USCIS has announced that offices will offer a reduced number of appointments and interviews to help ensure social distancing, allow time for cleaning, and reduce waiting room occupancy.
USCIS released more information regarding individual offices on its website.
