1. Just a little bit over a month. 

2. It was kind of combo. He asked how I met my husband, went through some things from my i751 file.  He asked how we do our taxes, I needed to confirm some things. He didn't ask for any documents.  Then he started my civics and English test. 

Thanks,

Good Morning, I got a notice of interview but it's only mentions-400 nothing regarding I-751. How could I know if that Combo or not???? I heard about some cases after people went to the interview they couldn't make it because the USCIS didn't know about their pending I-751 or they don't have the file.

Mine notice didn't mention I751 either but I knew that it was still pending and based on many other people experience the officers asked some questions about your I751 during the interview. I have never heard about an officer not being aware of another cases pending.

 

It is going to be a combo interview, prepare yourself and bring some documents just in case. They need to process your pending cases first before they approve your citizenship. In my cases it was  just a few simple questions and the whole interview ended in 16 min.

One more questions, actually multiple questions.

1- How long it took from getting the notification of Interview and the actual interview?

2- Did your interview was a combo? and how would you know that? Also did your spouse attend the interview with you?

 

 

Sorry, I missed the spouse thing. He came with me but he wasn't allowed with me in the room. To be on the safe side you should bring your spouse with you. Each case is different.

I brought pretty much the same things that I submitted with my I-751 case: marriage certificate, bank statements, rent agreement with both names, car and rental insurance with both names, tax transcripts, a couple of pictures.... but I was only asked for my passport and green card. I got my green card through marriage so any comingled documents we had I brought. I am not sure how you obtained your green card. If it's different than marriage then I can't chime in.

 

 

Ohhh you mentioned spouse  in previous post

Fairfax. I don't think they have another office in our area.  The nearest will be Baltimore and Norfolk I guess.

Great, that's where my interview notices point for my interview, hopefully, they will have my both cases file.

Hi guys, I thought I would share my successful N400 Interview Rescheduling story. I've read so many horror stories on here, so wanted to give some hope haha.

 

I filed N400 in July 2018 in SF, but then I was moving to Washington DC area, and filed my change of address in May 2019. 

Received my Interview notice on Wednesday, May 15th for June 20th in my online USCIS account. Unfortunately, I had a family vacation planned during that week, and it would be impossible to fly back to make my appointment during that time, so I had to reschedule. 

 

I printed out the Interview Notice Letter from my online account, wrote a letter explaining why I cannot make it, attached my flights information, and sent it via Express Mail to the local office. The letter was delivered the next day. On Tuesday, May 21 I called the 800 number and asked to file a service request to make sure that my letter got to the officer. On May 23d my account got updated with a de-scheduling letter and the new appointment letter for June 26th.

 

Gotta get to studying now
