My wife has sent a message to USCIS about her case via her online account and she received the following message: 

Your application information has been entered into the system which schedules applicants for interviews at their local Field Office. Interview appointments are scheduled as slots become available at the Field Office

 

I think she is in-line for interview but her status on ELIS is "we have reviewed your finger prints" and on myUSCIS is We are actively reviewing your case. 

 

Anyone has experienced something similar?

Did you receive the answer from USCIS instantly, or, if not, how long did it take to hear back from them after your initial message?

I think it took them a week or so to respond. But most of their responses are system generated ones so don't get your hopes high.

Congratulations!

But ’tis a common proof
That lowliness is young ambition’s ladder,
Whereto the climber upward turns his face.
But when he once attains the upmost round,
He then unto the ladder turns his back,
Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees
By which he did ascend.
- Julius Caesar

Thank you. I was able to re-schedule my original appointment with the Washington, DC,  Office by e-mail. I am now waiting for a new interview date.

 

This is the reply I got from my request to the Washington DC Office: 

 

"The interview on January 2, 2018 has been cancelled. The application has been placed back into the scheduling queue to receive a new interview date on or after 1/10/2018. A new notice will be sent once an interview has been scheduled after this date."

What's the steps to apply for N400? 

If it is pay fee first, then send documents, then attend exam?

read this first.. https://www.uscis.gov/us-citizenship 

then basically when you get all the documents and fill the forms you can sent it either online or the regular way to the center according to your location!! the payment has to be sent with the documents
