St. Paul is close as these are average times. We were 5 months, 3 days from the time we sent in the N-400 to the end of the oath ceremony, so above average.

Would have been 3 months, 17 days if wife's interviewer followed our request to say the oath the same day, they can do that and they were not that busy. But we would still be waiting if I didn't contact my senator, her interviewer never submitted her folder to her supervisor.

In case you are wondering how I copied that page, used Adobe Acrobat professional version, and set the text on this board to RTF. Did that because St.Paul was not listed.

I don't know whether this can be trusted or not.

As far as I know, this is average time from the case receipt to first interview.

But they are attacking the case from two batch.

One is from this March or later, which they process it ASAP.

But another one is from the case before this March or something like that, which was received last year, or early this year.

This was accumulated, so they are trying to process old, accumulated cases.

So people, who applied this year are seeing much faster processing, and some people, who applied a while ago, are seeing some "improvement" recently.
