Decision can not be made at this time WTH

Hi all

I had my interview on Tuesday in Albany NY.

The interview itself went really good I swore to tell the truth, we then sat down and he went over my file everything was correct and the IO then went onto the 10 questions, He only had to ask me 6 as I got them all right then we did the reading and writing portion of the interview (this also went well).

We chit chatted back and forth about my job and going paperless (I work in a Drs office and we are in the process of going paperless) he said the USCIS is going to be doing this soon (he laughed when he said it as he had just told me about the size of the vaults they have of charts based in Montana).

Then it got strange for me as he said "you have passed the civics and english part but I need to review your file" I have never been arrested, never broke any law, never lied to a USCIS office so why would they need to review my file? He said nothing else just that it needed to be reviewed

He said he would be in touch with me next week (however Ive heard that people wait weeks for a decision to be made).

I just dont get it I have checked my online status and it is still saying 04/16/2013 we have schedualed you for your interview etc. Im seriously worried what on earth could be wrong with my file when I have done nothing but go to work pay taxes and be a good citizen.

Nothing to worry about. It could be that you have a big file (like my case) or he didn't go over your file prior to the interview. In my case, I called the 1-800# a week later, spoke to a level 2 supervisor who told me my application was approved later the same week of the interview. And my online status didn't change until oath was scheduled (not placed in queue)

Give it a few days and call their 1-800# and check on it.

Have you ever claimed to be a citizen??

Have you ever claimed to be a citizen??

No never Im fanatical about reading paperwork before I sign everything so I know Ive never checked any box to claim that... Im just confused as to why it couldnt be decided upon. The guy was smiling when he said the outcome to me so I assume its not bad and that he really does just have to review it but you never know with USCIS.. Ive always sailed through everything with them right from sept 2005 when we did our initial K3 visa so I guess I was about due a hiccup :S

Thank you , you have put my mind at rest somewhat. I just hate not knowing stuff

All files need to be approved by the supervisor and they review everything to make sure itis all in order... I would not freak out yet, give it a few days...

Same thing happened to me. Very simple case, no kids or tickets. Lady said she needed to review my file. A week later I got a status update saying I was in line for oath scheduling. I worried like you, but no need to. Look at my timeline for reassurance. You will be fine. I'm a citizen now and you will be soon!

Oh good! The waiting period is the most anxiety inducing moment but so glad it all turned out well! Congrats!

lol they do that sometimes to get people in a frantic mode even though they know the person is going to be approved. Congrats
