N 400 September 2010 applications

[jodee 30]

Great job on the walk-in Manohara. We were allowed to do walk-ins as well, but as we live 2hrs 20 mins from the office for my area (which was still the closest anyways), the date allocated was more convenient, as hubby took a leave pass to go with me. We are on the home stretch..Yay!

Manohara - that's awesome. They aren't wasting any time in your local office.

hhn400 - that makes sense. Just our luck having to file so late in the year. Sorry to hear that your wife had to re-do her fingerprints, but at least we know that everything is ok now.

Wanted to share with people that understand. I just called the FBI helpline to get an update on my fingerprint clearance and was told that there are no current records on my file :-(

The nice officer told me that since I had sent fingerprint cards in the approval process normally takes 6-8 weeks!!!

I applied on Sept 3rd, but my NOA was not sent out until Sept 21st... so I guess I still have a few more weeks before I hear anything.

While I am grumbling, I want to know why oh why the USCIS/FBI do not keep previous records on file. My fingerprints have been processed at least 3 times previously, but of course those digital sets have long since expired. Life is so much easier on tv, CSI would have no problem tracing down my old prints.

Okay, I am done moaning for today. Thanks for listening.

I called the USCIS military hotline today and found out that my interview has been scheduled for 12-03-10! The normal USCIS hotline wouldn't tell me anything when I called them yesterday! All they like to do is read you a bunch of BS off the computer screen which isn't even related to your case. pff

[JA Tam 7]

Congrats, Manohara!!! That's awesome and it's how our military should be treated indeed!

[jodee 30]

Following your lead Manohara, I also called the Military hotline today. I really just wanted to make sure that my fingerprints were all good, as it's a 2.5 hour trip for us to get prints done.

He told me prints were good, and my file was already at San B. So, I am guessing, I should have an update in a day or two....regarding interview date..

[bonnerbonner 6]

Do u have to be in the military to call their hotline number?

[jodee 30]

Do u have to be in the military to call their hotline number?

yes, either military yourself, or your spouse is military...

[manohara 0]

That's great news, Jodee! Hopefully, everything will go quickly and you'll have an interview date soon!!

Bonnerbonner, you have to be affiliated with the military (you have to either be in it or be a family member) to be able to get assistance from the Military hotline. Basically, you'd have to have sent your application in to Nebraska Service Center.

Received interview letter last night: dated 10/25/2010

Interview date 12/2/2010

[Brother Hesekiel 2,236]

For the third time within the past 2 weeks now, "our" (new?) mail carrier dropped our mail in a neighbor's mailbox. We got mail that was addressed to two other neighbors. That's freaking me out, as I'm waiting for the interview letter, of course. Can't even imagine if it gets back to USCIS with "not under this address" written on the envelope!

Anyway, today my online status changed to "Testing and Interview" which means it's only a matter of time. As a reference:

Sent: Sept. 11

Bio: Oct 5

It's good to know that the interview letters are starting to roll in . I started resigning myself to the fact that hubby's interview would probably be scheduled in January and take the oath early in the year, which would still be in the processing time.

I'm relieved to see that we're still in a good general wait time for hubby's case to be transferred to the local office and for our status to change from RFE.

[dannyh86 3]

Hi all, glad to see the oath letters are starting to arrive!!!! Just one little thing, I think we should update the timeline (the people that have received the interview letter or those who know their interview date) so we can all see the progress of everyone. Good luck everyone!!!!

I would like to encourage everyone to create their timeline so that it will be available for everybody to compare in just one page.

Please take a look:

http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/citlist.php?op6=All&op7=Dallas+TX&op1=3&op2=d&op4=1&op5=5%2C10%2C11&cfl=0 (this is in my favorites and I just pull the Lewisville Lockbox.. but you can personalized it however you want)

It is good that we have a special thread per month, but the visajourney timeline section could be helpful too for everyone to see, I think.

Just my two cents,

R&W
