Thanks! I am really surprised that I got my interview scheduled before the other NYC March filers because I was the last on to get the biometrics done. Wise_Hawk, I had my fingerprints done on April 30th and I have been in line since May 2nd. Aurelius I am so excited for us New Yorkers! I can't wait to be done with immigration!

It is great to see progress is happening for some of us! For those that have received interview letters roughly how much notice are you getting, ie date you receive letter to time of actual interview date?

Yay for progress in the NYC office! I know some of you were very eager to be scheduled to say the least, so hopefully you'll be hearing very soon now :)

Thanks Mistere for the link to the charts! I don't know how these would be different right now, as the charts are for March '14.

My field office (San Fernando Valley in Chatsworth) seems to be going very slowly in March, ugh -_- Bracing myself for a long wait.

Though I'm still not too worried. There is an oath ceremony in Los Angeles on Aug. 27, so I figure, as long as I get an interview scheduled this month (and presumably have the interview by the end of July), then I should still be able to attend the August ceremony (the July one is on the 11th, so no hope for that, I think). Fingers crossed! :thumbs: I'll update you guys whenever I have any news of a status change.

Good luck to everyone going in for interviews or still waiting to be scheduled!

You're creating way too much drama for no reason. New York is slow in general and they have not made an exception for you and put you ahead of anyone for whatever reason. If you check your status, which you do, you will see this message: "When scheduling is complete, you will receive a notice with a time and place for your interview. If you have not received the notice within 90 days of the date above, please call customer service at 1-800-375-5283 for further assistance."

Now, which part exactly did you not get ??

And the word is s-c-h-e-d-u-l-e. You might wanna learn how to spell things because there is a written test too.

Relax and be patient. Good night.

+1 agree with you! people need to learn more english ESPECIALLY that guy....

Hello Christi85,

The charts show trends for the last two years and you're right March '14 is the last showing. I was looking at the National charts and it shows that March, April and May are the months that they receive the most N400 applications, in the San Fernando office January had about 1000, February about 1200 and in March it jumped to about 1900. Same happened in my field office. November and December show the least amount of submitted applications, but too late we applied in March and just have to patiently wait. Who knows maybe we'll be at the same August Oath Ceremony. I appreciate your positive outlook. Good luck to you...

Yay for progress in the NYC office! I know some of you were very eager to be scheduled to say the least, so hopefully you'll be hearing very soon now :)

Thanks Mistere for the link to the charts! I don't know how these would be different right now, as the charts are for March '14.

My field office (San Fernando Valley in Chatsworth) seems to be going very slowly in March, ugh -_- Bracing myself for a long wait.

Though I'm still not too worried. There is an oath ceremony in Los Angeles on Aug. 27, so I figure, as long as I get an interview scheduled this month (and presumably have the interview by the end of July), then I should still be able to attend the August ceremony (the July one is on the 11th, so no hope for that, I think).

Hello, I don't think you should worry, our field office just like many other field offices had an increase of submitted applications since March, the San Bernardino office takes about 5.1 months for the whole process and oath ceremonies are in Los Angeles, in April the average increased by one month 6.1 months. For me everything is just about a month apart, I don't have the actual (paper) interview letter with the actual interview date, but I'm estimating first or second week of July. Sent Application in March, Biometrics in April, In-line end of April (Almost May), yellow letter (bring ID) in June and also scheduled for interview in June. Don't know date yet, but guessing July.

I will keep you posted. Good luck to you...

hi! I saw that you are also from the San Bernardino field office. I haven't heard from them too up to now. I had my early bio last May 15. my 3rd year anniversary is not until July 17. how about you?

Have a look at this... same day interview and oath depends on your field office.
