USCIS Offices Closed January 9, 2025

President Biden has declared Thursday, January 9, a National Day of Mourning to remember the life and legacy of James Earl Carter Jr., the 39th president of the United States, and has issued an Executive Order Providing for the Closing of Executive Departments and Agencies of the Federal Government on January 9, 2025.

Accordingly, all USCIS offices will be closed on Thursday, January 9, 2025. The USCIS Contact Center live assistance will also be closed. USCIS will reschedule all naturalization ceremonies, interviews, and appointments set for that day and inform those affected of the new date.

All applicants who have biometric appointments scheduled for January 9 will receive a new appointment notice within three weeks. Applicants can also reschedule their appointment using the biometric services appointment rescheduling tool on their USCIS online account before their scheduled appointment.

If you wish to reschedule your appointment you can contact USCIS by calling or using the online tools and resources. Additional information is available on the USCIS Contact Us page.
