I have a question. I completed n400 online and I chose not to change my name but I regret it now. I cannot modify the form online.

 

What should I do?

It is totally fine, you can change by the time of your interview but that will delay a little bit to schedule the oath ceremony.

Do we have Feb 2018 filers who is waiting for the interview letter? We both, me and my husband, submitted our documents online on the same day and had fingerprints on the same day too. But I am an US citizen with a passport now and my husband is still waiting for his interview.

Don’t think I’m getting any oath letter this week. Tomorrow will be two weeks from interview and my status still says “oath ceremony will be scheduled”. Oh well. Nothing to do but wait, wait and wait some more. :mellow:

Will your oath ceremony be in Bridgeport?  Can you look up the ceremony schedule and estimate when yours will be?  Looks like ours will take place in Troy, NY - and they hold it once per month there.

 

I say Troy, because it is the closest to our house.  Never know if they will be THAT logical, though!

I’ve searched to see if there’s a schedule and there isn’t. Not sure where it would be as I think they’re held in Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford. AmusingCamera was sent to New Haven for oath ceremony even though Bridgeport is closer so I don’t know. I was just hopeful since AmusingCamera said he and his cousin got oath letter 14-15 days after the interview. Tomorrow is 14 days for me but my status hasn’t changed on either site since it changed after my interview. And it’s not like they haven’t made the decision. My online USCIS site says my application was approved and I should just wait for oath letter. And not changing my name either so I dunno. Just have to wait more I guess.

I’ve seen that page but I’ve looked on trackers and have yet to see an oath ceremony date that’s actually on a Friday so I think that is outdated.

What really determines how soon one gets approved? I am happy seeing people who filed after I did get approved and given their citizenship. At the same time, I am concerned why mine is taking too long
