I-751 February 2017 Filers, Part II

[AlexNY 9]

Went to infopass for the stamp. They confirmed they have my case. Though it isn't in Brooklyn but in NYC.

[Ck207 35]

I am having my combo interview on March 27. Any advice?

 Bring your spouse, bunch of the paperwork (bills, taxes, insurances, leases etc) and be ready to answer all kind of questons related to your marriage. 

I shared with my experience in “N400 and I751 combo» topic

PSA: Brooklyn/NYC Infopass - It is known that getting an infopass appt in NYC is next to impossible. Pick Hartford CT for an appt and go there. No, they can't process (allegedly). But tell them your sob story. The staff (friendly, courteous and empathetic) is able to get you a preferred NYC appt through their internal portal. They even printed me out a new appt conf and wished me well. Make a road trip. Quiet little town.

I called customer service and had absolutely no problem scheduling infopass. I was given options to go there the next day at 11:45, 12:00, and 12:15. It didn't work for me. Therefore I was given the day after that. I could choose any time of a day. I picked 8:45. I found it super convenient to make infopass this way because before I tried it online many times with no luck.

Ah thx! I suppose scheduling via phone is the best bet.

Wow... I can't believe it finally happened.  A few days ago, I attended my oath ceremony and became a naturalized US citizen.  I was one out of 3700 others that became citizens with me that day.

I was a combo interview! Same-sex couple here  

 

My interview was scheduled at 2:10pm. I got to the USCIS center at 1:20. It was too early and my husband and I waited for it to be 1:40 for us to go in.

 

We went through security fairly quickly. I was glad we waited because I noticed at check-in that the guy looked at my interview time and this little cheat sheet with appointment times and the allowable times those can check in at. He gave me back my appointment letter and told us to wait. It was pretty full but there was one side that was mostly empty, so we waited there. 

 

The officer did the 751 first. My IO was a woman. She had us sit down then we did an oath, to tell the truth. She asked for our names, address, and shot me a look and asked me for my husband's DOB, which I answered pretty quickly. 

 

Then I almost had a panic attack because she asked me for stuff I didn't bring. The tax transcript for 2017 (I'd brought 2016 thinking it was 2017). She asked about a joint bank account, and we told her about Venmo. She asked for our lease, but when we showed her she said it needed to be signed. We explained it was e-signed. But luckily, that didn't hinder us at all. She asked us questions about which one of cooks, how we met, where have we traveled together. Things were more relaxed after that. She even asked if went to Tulum when we went to Cancun.

 

She approved my removal of conditions. She said she needed to get it signed off and then she would do the citizenship interview. She signaled us to the waiting room. After about 20 minutes she called us back. She asked me questions about my application. Then went to the interview.

 

1. Who does a senator represent? All the people in a state
2. Why did the colonists declare independence? For being taxed without representation 
3. What's the capital of the US? Washington DC 
4. What is the Capital of Texas? Austin 
5. What Ocean is on the east coast? Atlantic 
6. What's one right the first amendment gives you? Freedom of speech 

 

 

I got them right. She asked to read, "What do we pay the government?"

I wrote, “We pay taxes"

 

She told me I was approved and that I'd either have my oath ceremony on March 13 or April 17. I was driving home and I got the update that my 751 was approved and a card was ordered. The IO told me I may or may not get it. 

 

That was it!

Hey,

 

  I don’t feel like people have actually been updating this chart so I wouldn’t follow it as a timeline guide. I was CSC and go my I-751 approved on January 24th.

  People probably moved to different forums, kinda like I did so I don’t know. I feel like if your case hasn’t been processed yet, you are one of the few as I believe that the majority already had their cases completed.

   Good luck! ✌🏻

 So today was the combo interview ROC/N400.      We parked in the Marquette Plaza, it was extremely full. We found one vacant spot which we swiftly took. Went up to 7th floor and checked in. While waiting in lobby we went through our civics test flashcards one more time. His number was called, we didnt hear it, the IO ended up coming out and collecting him. He was a tall african american with a warm smile. So he took him in and I stayed in the waiting room so everything else I am about to say is from what my hubby told me.      He asked him "Is your wife here too?" he said "yes shes in the waiting room".     They then sat down and went through the application. Then did the civics questions. He got the first 6 right so then they stopped there since he passed already. He then recited a sentence in english and wrote a sentence in english. He misspelled a word by accident but the IO said that was alright.     Then they went onto the I-751. He asked what date did you get married? And what dates did you come and visit prior to K1 fiance visa? My husband is really bad with remembering dates and was honest and said he didnt remember but that the dates were in the binder he brought in. So he looked them up and told him. The IO didnt seem bothered that he didnt know them off the top of his head. Asked when we met and how we met. He said we met on a online message board. The IO asked what was the name of it. But he didnt remember and (I dont remember either to be honest, the message board was shut down shortly after we met).     The IO was satisfied with everything and said I am recommending you for approval for I-751 and N400. He also said he couldnt properly approve the N400 until 3 days from now because he has to approve the I-751 in the system first. He then handed him two papers one saying he had been reccomended for approval for I-751 and second for N400 saying A decision cannot be made at this time.  Surprisingly enough he never called me back to interview me. I was expecting it.  So that was our day.

Congratulations, Corvusheart! I think we been through this journey at roughly the same pace. It's my naturalization / I-751 interview in three weeks time. It should have been June 5, 2018 but I was abroad and had to request a reschedule. The reschedule caused a 'system error' and I heard nothing for ten months until I finally went back and banged my very polite fist on the desk.

Please report back after the oath! Congrats again!

Thanks. MN office is slow. We are still waiting for N400 status to change. The I-751 status updated to My card is being produced day after interview and then 5 days later updated to My Card has been mailed. NOA2 for ROC came in the mail yesterday lol. I can see his new GC has trulely been mailed out because it shows up under packages arriving soon on informed delivery. Even though it's a priority envelope it has a tracking number so it shows up in the package field.

He is finally getting his new GC just to have it taken at his oath ceremony later on.
