I went to the Infopass today. It's pretty quick, my number was called when I was still in the bathroom.

 

The lady was nice, and I was told that my case status is eligible for interview. The current processing time of San Francisco FO is July 29, 2016. There are about 2150 people in the queue waiting, only about 70 are already scheduled for interview.

 

She told me that I should get scheduled in few weeks, otherwise I should send a request for my case.

That is a very interesting information.. what do you mean by only about 70 already scheduled for interview??? I meant they do have interview everyday ?If so it is 70 applicants will be interviewed per week, day?

I had my oath ceremony this morning. The actual ceremony took one hour, but I ended up being there for 3.5 hours because of all the procedures before and after the ceremony. I have already registered

She said out of the 2150 people, only 70 are scheduled. She couldn't explain more.

PD is 8/9 and it has today's date as the scheduled interview date. Hope it helps.

I will update if there is a change

Wait a minute... I just checked my initial message and it says my priority date is 8/08, but they received the case at 8/11... Which one do I go off of. Did you use the "Case Recieved Date" on the ELIS web page as the PD? My fingerprints where also after yours at early September, whereas you said yours was late August. I'm getting confused and worried.

 

If my actual date is 8/08 and not 8/11 that would mean I got skipped. What should I do?

There is no rhym or reason in which order, people who have September and November PD dates are already citizens, so it doesn't make much difference it if it's the 8th or 11th, I would expect to hear from them in the coming weeks and month tho!

Those September and November PD people have NBC numbers, which process far quicker. USCIS stopped handing out IOE numbers after August.

 

I have an IOE number, and Chicago seems to have been fairly consistent in its processing times (2 other IOE'rs who have the same PD got their interview notices on the same day.)

Chicago is listed at 7 months and 22 days, so if you are August 8 you are due for approval on March 30, so I would hang tight until then and expect to hear from them within two weeks either way of that date.

I was trying to edit the list and update my letter date (3/13/17) and interview date (4/19/17) which are the exact same as babyduck's but something seems to have changed, I can't find the "switch" to remove quotes that used to be there and I can't figure out how to do it. I think the instructions should be updated to specifically say how to do this for those of us who aren't as familiar with posting beyond a basic level. Thanks!
