This is what sometimes I do not understand. The Biometrics location is not that busy but still the entire processing time is too long...

 

Other MSP applicants do their biometrics closer to home, like Fargo or Minot (I think), etc.

3/2/18  E-filed N-400 under 5 year rule

3/26/18 Biometrics

7/2019-12/2019 (Yes, 16- 21 months) Estimated time to interview MSP office.

I had my naturalization ceremony on Wednesday. It was a really nice ceremony, great judge speaking and I liked that they registered you to vote and let you update your SS card there. Contrary to the o

It might be a good idea to check the veracity of your data/sources before spreading rumors from other forums.   1, MN doesn't have the largest number of refugees across the country.  Between

My wife finally got oath scheduled for 4/30. Almost finished. Since she had name change, i hope there is a judge there.

 

Congrats to your wife!!!! Any news coming out of Minneapolis/St. Paul gives me hope it's moving...

 

When did she apply and what was the estimated complete date USCIS gave you vs how long it actually took before she got her interview?

I'm not sure if we received an estimated completed date, at least I don't recall seeing that.

 

The USCIS received her application on 02/17/2017. Her interview was on 01/25/2018.

Glad to see she got an interview under a year! I'm hoping mine will be a year. 

 

My estimated completion date USCIS gives is 20 months from now,  December 2019. :( I applied in March 2018.

So I had my N400 interview today and I passed. I asked to changed have my name changed.  I'm a resident of WI but I interviewed in MN, does anyone know if I will have my oath ceremony in MN or WI?  Thank you.

your oath might likely be WI,while the N400 interview has to be processed at the Minneapolis main office

Rules for updating this table by the originator (@marusa) are here

 

Hi Folks,

I just submitted my N400 online last night.  I waited for my 5 years of marriage to tick over, but given these wait times, maybe I shouldn't have!!  I have a couple of friends who are also submitting in the very near future, so I can anonymously share their progress too (they are unlikely to join).

My experiences at the Mpls office (i.e. Greencard interview) have all been positive so far.

 

From my understanding, you don't need to take the oath in a field office, any federal judge can give it.  I'm not sure of the USCIS notification procedure, but if you have any federal judges nearby and want to get it over with, you might be able to get it done that way.  

 

A district judge friend of mine wanted to administer my citizenship oath (she married my husband and I and feels invested in our lives) and we were going to have a big party, but were disappointed to learn that it was federal judges only.  

 

NOLA - I'll be watching your progress closely, as you're just ahead of me!!

one of my friends files 1-2 month earlier than me through Minneapolis office,  and it was said 17months waiting.  Three months later, they moved down to Arizona after Christmas as my friend got a better-promoted offer in another employer.

their cases had been transferred to AZ office as well 2 weeks later. Now they are already on the scheduled interview in this May!  my friend joked, get out of Minnesota as fast as you can.  Its not because MN  has huge applications volume. it's just a ridiculous that Mpls  office is processing all applications from 3.5 states in the midwest.  the only case nation wide! why USCIS is doing in this way?  poor Minnesotans! not just the horrible long winter and snow storms!...totally agree!
