What it means for your I-612

In general, on any form:

USCIS recorded that you did not attend a scheduled in-person appointment, such as an interview or biometrics. Missing a required appointment can lead to denial for abandonment. If you had a good reason or never got the notice, act quickly. The deadline to respond can be short.
