I requested a case inquiry online with USCIS on 26 APRIL, and they posted that it was "assigned to an officer...." on 5 MAY, but today I see that posting deleted, and a new posting with a new date:

"On May 10, 2017, your inquiry about why your case is taking longer than our processing time, referral number WKD1071XXXXXXXX, was assigned to an officer for response."

They moved the date and clearly delayed the inquiry by taking ten days just to assign an officer......

Interview completed - passed on 5/15 now waiting for Oath Letter. Received texts and emails that Oath Letter was sent. 

 

This is was a IOE (ELIS) case. Interview was 3-4 minutes plus civics questions. Huge file was in front of officer (presuming all our previous submissions including a very detailed i751 pack). Officer did not even request a single original document !

Thank you, I still don't know when! The pdf is not uploaded on elis. I heard some interviews get scheduled then cancelled!! I'm still worried :)

 

Well, it will be one year exactly next week that they received my application.  I will let you know if any thing changes from biometrics stage on my case.  Maybe the one year mark gets a case top priority to move to the interview stage.  Fingers crossed.:whistle:

Pardon me if I seem a tad intrusive, but I was going through threads previous to the Jan '17 group I am in to get a sense of typical timeline wait times and noticed your predicament.  

 

Then I took a look at your timeline and noticed you waited only 21 months before applying for citizenship rather than the required 33 months from the date of the initial green card.

 

How were you allowed to do this?  Could this be the cause?

Hello,

We are a 319(b) filing.  This does not have any bearing on the delay many are experiencing.  The 319b is quite common among military and government workers at overseas locations. It merely shortens the wait time to apply for citizenship.  The real issue is the well documented ELIS problems in the Washington Times news article.

I see.  Thanks for your quick reply!  I do know about the ELIS fiascos and initially figured that was what it was.  But then got confused after seeing your timeline and thought maybe that had something to do with it as well.  Thanks for clearing it up and best of luck hopefully soon for you!

Great News!  This am: "USCIS has scheduled your interview appointment and will mail you the appointment notice."

 I also see that I did have a soft LUD on 17 MAY 2107, so my theory of them trying to tackle the One year Applications as priority seems close to the truth.
