ROC almost 11 months not sure what to do?

[chep 0]

I sent in my 751 (ROC) application last year on 06/25/12 and I have not received a response to date. I have made several phone calls to USCIS for the last 4.5 months but they have been unhelpful they tell me to "wait". I filed a e-request on 03/25/13 and I got a letter in the mail stating that my case was being adjudicated and I should receive a response in 45 days. Its been 53 days now and I have not got any response. I called USCIS earlier this week and an officer told me that someone was looking at my case when I asked how long it was going to take she could not give me an exact time but she said I should get a response before my one year extension expires next month. I am worried that it may reach June 25th 2013 before receiving any response because they keep telling me to wait. Should I contact my senator for help or should I just wait and hope that I will get a response before 06/25/13? I need some suggestions please!

File for citizenship when your window opens regardless of ROC being approved or not.

It will force them to process the ROC and you will be finished with the slackers because you will be on your way to citizenship.

You said that you have not received a response to date. Have you gone for a biometrics appt for the ROC or have you not even received that correspondence? I've read that there have been some slow responses recently with ROCs, even in California. If it makes you feel any better, we filed in Feb. 2012 and didn't get approval of the ROC until Jan. 2013 (RFE added a month or so onto the timeline). I agree with Inky, if you are planning to file sooner than later for naturalization, do it close to when your window opens.
