I know. I regretted not filling on line when I saw people getting interview within 2 months of filling. I waited 8 months for my interview try not to think about this process it could drive you nuts. Can't wait for next week and be donde with the oath ceremony. I'll be done with USCIS once and for all. Wish you good luck!

Actually, I don't think filling online will make the whole process faster. I filled my N400 online, and I'm still waiting the interview date. Many of June filers have had oath or interview, I'm not even close to that.

well that's strange. Maybe your background check hadn't clear yet. Everybody whom filed on line could tell is way faster and is done within 3-4 months of filling. In fact people whom filed in January have had oath already and are being scheduled for interview too. While paper filer are still waiting over a year now. I seen people from 2016 still waiting for interview.

well i don't think it is due to the background check because my online account have the estimated case completion time. And my local office process time is 13-18 months. The estimated case completion time and local office process times are very match. haha.

Hi. I am sure your husband is done with his Oath ceremony. Can you please let me know his experience and how long did it take in the whole process? I have an appointment with my lawyer so wants to schedule accordingly.

Hey..Yes my husband had his oath ceremony on 23rd at 8am. He got there by 7.30...and was done with the entire process by around 9am. He was told he could apply for a passport the very next day and now he has an American passport too - I think it took like a week. The USCIS website still shows " Interview was scheduled" though - no updates happening on that...don't know why. We are waiting for his original oath certificate to be mailed back to him. 

 

My father got admitted for a surgery and I had to be with him -  a lot of things happening now..I'm sorry for the late reply. Did you get your oath ceremony notice?

I chat with USCIS representative. This is the answer. 

 

So it looks like the last update is that the case was placed in the interview scheduling queue, so at this point you just have to wait on them to get to a point where there is an open appointment date.

 

I asked so now I just need to wait for interview?

 

Answer: You are in queue to be scheduled, there is just no date available yet.
