Hi Shell, I hope you hear something pretty soon. Did you call the helpline? What about your naturalization application? I was looking at it on Tuesday and it is very straightforward. The online N-400 filing is very convenient.  I would be filling in 3 weeks, regards. 

No I did not, but I was so close to doing so, as you're right they could have the wrong address on their systems. 

 

My naturalization application is on Sunday although I am completely and utterly unprepared I have not even worked out how many days I have had out of the country. If they asked for how many weeks. no problem. but days is a pain. I am just so disorganised for it, but it needs to be done even if I have to spend all day long concentrating on it.

 

One good thing and I say its a good thing, although subject to change my field office are apparently on August applicants since Nov 30th, so not many months to wait at the moment, however I don't trust them not to slow down or even go into reverse. I guess I have absolutely ZERO confidence with USCIS and I am still thinking I may get an interview for ROC, a December Vermont filer, received an interview letter in Feb for my field office, talk about adding insult to injury, waited over 14 months to receive an interview letter.  Shake my head again, no wonder I am a dizzy blonde!

Submitting N-400 tomorrow. We got everything that's listed. Do we need to include bank statements and bills as well? Our bills are joint but are bank accounts are separate but linked and money is transferred between accounts frequently. I guess I should be looking for the N-400 February filers thread.

Good luck!

Hi guys! I finally received my green card this morning! Approval date 2/5, letter received 2/8, card delivered 2/23. The status never changed online and the letter didn't show on informed delivery so it was a great surprise, something to keep in mind for you who have been approved and start getting anxious because it can seem that nothing is happening after. Good  luck to all the rest still waiting, you are next!

You guys may want to subscribe to the United States Post Office's "Informed Delivery Daily Digest" that shows you what is to be delivered to you each day.

I got my GC last Valentines day but my online status still "New Card Being Produced". I have no idea that they sent it already. So just to make sure  that you wont miss your GC on your mail box you can subscribed to usps and able to track all the incoming mail/package for the day. 

 

I got this idea from N400 Feb. 2018 Filers. I also applied for N400 online and thanks God no bugs and able to submit all evidence without problems.

Congratulations!!  Are you going to frame it with the date underneath and show your grandchildren in the coming years?  Oh wait no, you can't you have to have it with you 24 hours a day, hope it likes hot bubble baths and I hope your partner doesnt mind sharing the bed with it!

Good morning everyone, well soon afternoon!  Well last night I trolled the pages of USCIS and suddenly I had an epiphany, the light bulb went on, a great revelation as to why we have waited SO long. I couldn't believe my eyes, why hadn't I thought of this?  It was pure genius, I was in awe.   So now I can finally reveal why we have waited SO very long. . Are you ready?  https://www.uscis.gov/news/news-releases/uscis-director-l-francis-cissna-new-agency-mission-statement  There we go, they finally have told us why we waited this long!  Oh and they are not a business, but we are customers apparently.  So we the customers...... has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

 

Any way getting back to the mundane things like us and our long, long journey. I hope you ALL hear some thing this week. I am sending gold dust to each and every one of you today.  Good luck all!    

 

P.S Silly me read it wrong, its we are not customers apparently, nope, perhaps its a free service and we didn't know?  We the applicant and petitioners....      They serve the American people, weird I thought my husband was one of those.  Yes, I am assimilating to the USA, using freedom of speech.

The online N-400 form automatically calculates the number of days when you put in your travel dates, and also automatically removes the days of departure and arrival from the number too.

Already subscribed and nowadays I play this game each morning, do I look and get disappointed today or do I wait for the post man/mail man and still there for hours wondering the endless possibilities like I did today, only to get a receipt for my eye appointment, another late birthday card from England and some junk mail from a stupid magazine company.  I guess its time to focus on Sunday and get my paperwork together. Its now a whole year since I sent off for ROC and I guess I am never going to see what the card actually looks like, (new design).  Guess it saves them money, although they state they are not a business.

Really..  Oh wow, I am impressed.  Thank you so much as I asked my husband to calculate (he is an accountant). Now the thing is should I tell him or shouldnt I. I owe him one with the tricks he plays on me.  No I wont tell him, let him get all frustrated and the Italian passion come out for a few mins any way.  That should be SO much fun!!!

Just got this email to my inbox, seems they know I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for my GC.    You guys can share if you would like as you all have waited and waited and waited, remember our younger days?

 

Every year, thousands of healthy seniors are sent to nursing homes against their will...and it’s all because of a simple accident that can happen to anyone.

 

In just 2 seconds you’re going to see a simple survival tool that stops this #1 cause of nursing home placements and keeps you safe.

 

Go here to see it now.

 

The #1 cause of nursing home placements is responsible for more than 40% of all seniors losing their freedom to nursing homes.

 

This threat is extremely common, and can easily happen to any senior no matter how healthy or careful they are.

 

The survival tool you’re about to see is important for any senior who wants to keep their freedom and live their life without fear of being forced into a home.

 

And because this new tool was just released last week, I’m giving you a special early bird deal on it.

 

For today only, I’m slashing the price on this survival tool and am even throwing in some bonus survival gear for FREE if you get a few for you friends and family.

 

Go here to get your early bird deal.

 

 

P.S. Ask any senior in a nursing home why they live there and you’ll be shocked by how many say it was because of this #1 senior threat. Go here to see the simple tool that stops it.

I submitted no that much evidences as of pictures of our trips to Japan and France because we just had a baby together in January of last year and we have little girl who is 3 . so I think that should be enough proof of a real marriage.
