That form is only for notification of application acceptance when first filed---there is no updates from that form afterwards.

You mean I filled out the form just to receive one email/text!?     Oh, well.

Thanks @Going through and @peachlings. I did sign up for email and text notifications, but nothing received...  Crossing my fingers hoping they'll text me and surprise me the next minute.

You could always call the service center and request to speak to an L2 officer...don't ask him/her if your biometrics has been completed, as him/her if you are "in line for an interview".

If you filed on paper, I don't believe you will get any sort of case status update online for being inline for the interview...might be mistaken, though.

 

On average, I've heard it normally takes around 30 days to be online after doing the biometrics.  Depends on the field office though too, and how long  your background check may take depends on variable factors.

I was a paper filer in early July, and my "in line" status was updated on 8/28.

I filed paper and got a notice about being In-Line. I signed up for notifications, and my status changed as well. I'm sure it varies though.

Looking at everyone's progress makes me worry... I submitted my application in early July, got my finger prints done in early August, but now it still says my application was received on 7/11 on the USCIS page. Any thoughts, guys? Would they send me a letter to notify me when I'm "In Line"? 

They work in a mysterious manner I must say. I filled paper and also fill out form for text plus email notification but so far I haven't receive notification that way. I check online instead. This link: https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do

I hope thing start moving for you and other soon!

I have something to discuss. In my application, I filled out the change of name section because the order of my name needed to be corrected. So I changed my name from, for example, Gary Doe John to John Gary Doe. Will this name change make my application slower since they would need to do background check for the two names? Or would they just do the background check for the old name only? I checked my USCIS account and it still shows that the case has been received and they sent me a NOA. In reality, I already had my biometrics done earlier of this month. I have also checked from Houston's field office that they only do judicial naturalization ceremony. That means I do not even have to wait for the judicial naturalization ceremony like other offices where they have two separate type of ceremonies (judicial and administrative). Since I have not received any notification after my biometrics, I am getting anxious everyday, And now with all the flooding that happened recently in Houston, the area where USCIS office is located, it was under 16 feet water. Since I mailed in my application, I am just worried if my file got lost with all the recent flooding. So many possibilities are running through my anxious mind right now.

@bountyhunter - As stated by @Going through, they run background checks on any name possibly attached to your identity. If your name is deemed *important* - like mine, the background check will take time. I am in the same boat as my fingerprinting was done on 08/11 and the last update was on 08/15 but still it shows "biometrics completed". 

Houston office flooding is a concern so lets hope for the best! Origin does make a HUGE difference so all i would say is just don't get anxious and just prepare yourself that this will take time. Anything before, is a bonus. I won't say I am not anxious but i have put this on the back burner :).

This thread has become a bit quiet...just wondering if anyone has any updates to report??

[LRP 26]

Hi @Going through - did your online account get updated as of 09/01? I am wondering if an IO actually looked at my account on that day or if the estimated case completion time was updated for everyone as we go into a new month (i.e. 9 months instead of 10 months)

Nope.  My last update still shows the date my interview appointment letter was mailed out in August.  

My interview is later this month and it shows my  "estimated case completion" time as July 2018 (it was originally January 2018).

[reneesuarez 21]

my only update has been an email I got this morning that says there have been no status updates to our case

lol!!

[alejandreska 136]

Hello everyone! Today my online status changed to "In line for interview". I did not get any email or text, I just checked the USCIS Case Status website. No letter yet.

Could someone please update me? Thanks!

Bad news... They "descheduled the interview" due to "unforeseen circumstances".... 😟

 

The notice date for the scheduling was dated 8/15, then I checked today and saw a new notice for the descheduling that was dated 8/16. It didn't show up till today. No word as to when they will reschedule my interview... The website still shows that my interview is on, despite the notice. Real gutted. 😭

Yours was so quick! I wish I filed mine online.
