So the question is, when did you get your original 2-year green card? That is the GC date to put in the chart. :-)

Thanks! Hopefully somebody who knows how to update the chart can update the original GC date. And in the meantime, with your citizenship process going so fast, you're just zooming through -- looks like you'll be a citizen not much more than three years after getting the card in the first place! Woohoo!!

So the theory that your status updates to 'Case in line for interview' 30 days prior to your green card's 3rd year anniversary is true for my case! So spot on! List updated below. Hopefully the interview gets scheduled sooner rather than later! Crossing my fingers xx

If you have a question about January N-400 filers, you'll have better luck checking in with the people in the January thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/621366-n-400-january-2017-filers/  I hope your case progresses quickly! :-)

So the theory that your status updates to 'Case in line for interview' 30 days prior to your green card's 3rd year anniversary is true for my case! So spot on! List updated below. Hopefully the interview gets scheduled sooner rather than later!




 

I'm not quite sure about that. I'm way past my 5 years anniversary and, needless to say, my " in line for interview" status - which followed one week later after completing the biometrics-  has nothing to do with my green card date. I tend to believe that status changed due to background check clearance. If what you said was the norm, should I expect to be treated  differently and be processed faster than anyone else? I don't believe so. Your status changed because you applied early enough to give USCIS time to appoint you for biometrics and conduct the background check.

This theory is not true for everyone. Some users speculate here on VJ that that is the case. From what I've read, this theory has mostly applied to those who have applied 90 days prior to their 3 year green card anniversary. So it does not apply to you since you are way past your 5 year anniversary.

Your status changed because you applied early enough to give USCIS time to appoint you for biometrics and conduct the background check. 

The theory in question is that the soonest you can be placed into "in line for interview" status is 30 days before your 3-year GC anniversary for marriage-based cases. So even if someone applies 90 days before and does biometrics right away, they cannot be moved into "in line for interview" status any earlier than 30 days before the anniversary. Several people in this situation (including @hellostranger57) have noticed that, yes, as if by magic, they are placed into "in line" status at that 30-day mark, so there seems to be at least some validity to this theory. 

 

Note that the theory does not say you will be placed into "in line" status then; if someone applies 90 days before the anniversary, but gets held up in background checks, the "in line" status might take longer than that. Basically, the theory says that people applying near the beginning of their 90-days-in-advance application window might have a slightly longer-than-expected wait until "in line for interview status" compared with someone who has already fulfilled the 3/5 years by the time the application is submitted. 

 

This is because the interview itself cannot take place before the actual GC anniversary, and interviews are typically scheduled a month out. You can't be "in line" for an interview if it's technically too early for them to schedule your interview.

 

I believe I've also read that the filing date is what determines the actual interview order, and not the "in line for interview" date, so early filers aren't penalized for the actual interview scheduling, once they get that far, unless their office is zooming through cases in 2 months or whatever. (In which case they'd be lucky ducks to begin with!!)

I agree - that is just speculation, and it should remain a speculation. Problem with that is, if continues to be promoted, speculation tends to turn into an expectation. And when that expectation is not met for various reasons - as every application is unique - it becomes an unnecessary source of stress and frustration.  And let's not forget the people here who got stuck in background checks and they have not seen a change in their status for months. I wonder how would they feel if they came across such "speculation", given that they might be past their 3 years anniversary. My point here is - when sharing an assumption about our own case, it would be useful to remind others that an assumption does not equal a fact, and that what's been happening in your case might not happen to others. There is absolutely nothing on the uscis website that confirms what's been said here related to the "30 days prior to 3 years anniversary date" story.

But then again, looking in the May & July threads, some people are reporting being in line sooner than the 30-days-before-anniversary mark. The number of people in this situation who do report being placed "in line" 30 days before the anniversary seems to indicate that it can be a threshold in some situations (the hunch is that it's more statistically significant than just random coincidence), but not always. It would be interesting to gather more data, perhaps filing methods, certain local offices, etc., but that's more than I have time for, alas! In the meantime, it's helpful to me at least to know that it can be of significance, especially when we have so little to go by during these long waits.
