Went on my "second interview" and as I expected it turned out to be a systems mess up. I was being told that my case is approved and locked already and because of my name change (which is just 2 letters in my first name lol) my oath is scheduled on June 16th. I was being offered to take a same day oath if I would cancel my name change, but I decided to wait. It's funny that technically if anyone applies for their citizenship today, might have an oath before mine comes lol. Anyway good luck everyone and I'm sticking around if anyone needs my help.

Went on my "second interview" and as I expected it turned out to be a systems mess up. I was being told that my case is approved and locked already and because of my name change (which is just 2 letters in my first name lol) my oath is scheduled on June 16th. I was being offered to take a same day oath if I would cancel my name change, but I decided to wait. It's funny that technically if anyone applies for their citizenship today, might have an oath before mine comes lol. Anyway good luck everyone and I'm sticking around if anyone needs my help.

Awesome! Too bad you had to go through a couple of extra "hoops" but better safe than sorry. And knowing your oath date is great and the two months will fly by quickly. :)

Those who already have their passports, how long did you wait before you were able to check your application status online? Its been two weeks since I applied and I cannot find my passport application online to check the progress.

I don't already have the passport. We applied April 1, expedited, delivered to them the 2nd, check cashed on the 4th, still not in their system.

The online tracker states it is currently taking 7-10 business days to be in their tracker, expedited or not, which seems ridiculous, what a surprise.

14 days is well beyond this. I'd email them, if not call them. Did you expedite, out of curiosity?

Six days. I have not received my passport yet. I applied on March 14.

vbb which link are you using to check, is it this one https://passportstatus.state.gov/opss/OPSS_Status_ip.asp

Im using that and my application cannot be found and it says the passport status is taking 7-10 days to begin tracking. Its 14 days now for my case....very annoying :angry:
