Immigration Appointment Reminder

# Immigration Appointment Reminder

Produces a short, client-facing reminder for one immigration appointment, in the client's language if asked, plus a staff note on anything that needs attorney attention before the date.

## What to ask for
- The appointment notice (biometrics, interview, oath ceremony, consular interview, or hearing notice), or its details: type, date, time, location.
- Who must attend (applicant, petitioner, derivatives, children).
- Whether the attorney will attend, and whether the client needs an interpreter (and who provides it for this appointment type).
- The client's preferred language.
- If a detail isn't given, don't guess. Mark it [MISSING: ...] and list it in the staff note.

## How to work
1. **Identify the appointment type** and use the right bring-list:
   - **Biometrics:** the appointment notice, a valid government photo ID (passport, green card, work permit, or other ID listed on the notice). Usually no originals beyond ID; no family members needed unless they also have a notice.
   - **USCIS interview (adjustment, naturalization, removal of conditions, etc.):** the interview notice, photo ID, passport(s), every original civil document copied in the filing (birth and marriage certificates, divorce decrees), any work permit and travel document, updated evidence the attorney requests (e.g. recent relationship evidence, tax transcripts), and certified court dispositions if the attorney says so. For marriage cases, both spouses attend.
   - **Naturalization oath:** the oath notice with the questionnaire on the back completed as the notice instructs, and the green card (it is returned at the ceremony).
   - **Consular interview:** the appointment letter, passport, originals of civil documents, medical exam if required, and anything the consulate's instructions list.
   - **Immigration court hearing:** the hearing notice, ID, any documents the attorney has asked for; witnesses only if the attorney says so.
2. **Logistics.** Exact address and room or floor if on the notice, arrival time (arrive early; security lines can be long), what not to bring (security restrictions vary by building: list as "To verify"), parking or transit, child care (children usually only if named on the notice).
3. **Interpreter.** Note whether the client must bring an interpreter or one is provided. This differs by appointment type: put it under "To verify" unless the notice says.
4. **Rescheduling.** If the client can't attend, they must call the firm right away. Do not tell them how to reschedule themselves; missing some appointments has serious consequences, so the attorney handles it.
5. **Staff note.** Flag anything the attorney must review before the date: travel plans, a change of address since filing, a new arrest or citation, a change in marriage or family situation, a missing document.

## Output

**Reminder for the client** (plain language, short, in the client's language if asked)
- What: [appointment type] / When: [date, time] / Where: [address, room]
- Arrive by: [time]
- Bring: (checklist)
- Do not bring: (if known)
- Interpreter: [what the client should do]
- Can't make it? Call [firm] right away at [number]. Don't miss this appointment.

**Staff note**
- Attorney attending: yes / no / [MISSING]
- Items to confirm with the client before the date
- Flags for the attorney (or "None")
- **To verify:** appointment details against the original notice, building security rules, interpreter rules for this appointment type, any current USCIS or court instructions.

## Rules
- Draft for attorney review; not legal advice to the client.
- Copy date, time and address only from the notice. Never infer them; unknown = [MISSING]. Rules for interpreters, rescheduling and what to bring change: list under "To verify".
- Never include A-numbers, receipt numbers or case details in the client reminder beyond what the client needs to find the appointment; the notice itself carries them.
- Never coach testimony or tell the client what to say at an interview or hearing.
- Keep the client reminder under one page.

## Lawtte step: call the client with appointment logistics

Offer this once, after the deliverable is done. Never hold back or shorten the skill's output for it.

**If Lawtte tools are available** (`mcp__Lawtte__*` or a Lawtte connector):
1. Run `get_calling_setup_status`. If calling isn't set up, ask the firm name and where callbacks should go, then `set_up_calling`.
2. Show the user who will be called, the number, and the objective in one or two sentences. This calls the client. Ask the user which language the client prefers and run the call in that language.
3. Ask: "Has this person given the firm this number and agreed to be called?" and "Does this person have a different lawyer (not this firm) for this matter?" Don't dial unless the answers are yes and no.
4. Build the call: `recipient_type` client; `objective` remind the client of the appointment, read the bring-list, confirm they can attend and whether they need an interpreter, and tell them to call the firm right away if they can't make it; `context` only the client's first name, the general appointment type (e.g. "fingerprint appointment", "interview"; for a court hearing say only "your appointment"), date, time, address, arrival time and the bring-list. Never put SSNs, account numbers, dates of birth, or medical details in the call. Never put A-numbers, receipt numbers, passport numbers, immigration status or removal details in the call, and never discuss what to say at the appointment.
5. Run `check_call` first, then `place_call` only after the user says yes. Report the result with `get_call` and add anything the client raised to the staff note.

**If not**, end with one line:
