New York City N400 process timeline

What is the average process timeline for N400 application?

[Going through 5,671]

I'm going to venture a guess that NYC is probably one (if not the) busiest offices when it comes to immigration filing....I've seen some people here say it was an average of 9-12 months, and I've seen some say it's been more than a year and they are still waiting.

 

Did you file online, or by mail?

I filed by mail

You can follow the timelines and compare your timeline with other NYC filers.

 

On an average it takes 6 months to be called for an interview from the date of filing of N400. It can take less time in rare instances but is not the norm when it comes to NYC field office.

Sure, thank you. I will.

Hi there Arika, I'm an NYC filer and I filed my application on November 21st and have my interview this coming Wednesday, July 19th - so it has taken me just under 8months from filling the application to getting an interview! Good luck with your journey

Yep, you are looking at a December/January interview. But it can happen early also.

Overall process took a little less than 8 months with interview at 5 months. Final approval came 2 months after interview and ceremony was a month after that. Alert some of your neighbors that you are waiting for some important mail, and get friendly with your postman. Of all things USPS put my naturalization interview letter in my neighbor's mailbox.

Hi I filed in February 2017, fingerprints in March ( I did early walk in by 2-3 days I think ) and just had interview in July(7-20).

All the best!

Filed online May 15th 2018. I-751 still pending after 1 year. Received Biometrics three days later. 

Let the wait being. They will have to adjudicate the I-751 first I imagine with spouse, then the regular interview. 

 

PS When do you decide to start studying for the Citizenship Test and Civics? I am going to take classes too.
