Rubya, I really don't want to say that you always worry too much. What are you afraid of? Why you are always in stress and give that negative energy to other people? Please be relax and have more

Hi All, 

 

After looking back through older posts, I didn't find an answer to a question I have.  I received a text that my husband's interview is scheduled and that he will be receiving a letter.  Does anyone know how long it takes to get this letter.  We have a guardianship court date of, 12/5/17, and we're praying that the interview date is not on the same day.  If so, we'll need to try to reschedule court date.  Thanks in advance!  : )

Hello,

 

I filed my N-400 in May 2017, and was fingerprinted in downtown San Francisco in early August 2017 -I had to postpone this appointment for a month as I was out of town in July-.

My address is in San Francisco, CA, so I assume my Field Office is the one in this city.

 

On August 28, 2017, my status online changed to "Case Is In Line For An Interview". No news ever since.

 

Do the cases get in line for the interview based on the date you filed (in my case May 2017), or based on the date you are fingerprinted?

 

Thank you

Anyone who filed in May with San Francisco Field Office? Any updates after the finger printing?

 

I've had the "Case Is In Line For An Interview" since August 28th. Nothing thereafter...

It may take time because of the background check.  I had my biometrics on June 12 and waited up to Sept. 19 to get the date for my interview which was Oct. 23.  I am scheduled for the ceremony on Nov. 28.
