my estimated wait time was Feb 19. Now its Feb and the estimated time is not there anymore. Does anyone have the same experience? 

Yes it's normal your estimated wait and completion times will probably elapse before you're scheduled since Seattle is behind. Same thing happened to all of us here. Chances are you'll be scheduled this month though so keep fingers crossed.

USCIS has a page for their office closing which seems to be updating regularly. Seattle office was closed this Monday, and @Hollyday  had a bad luck to confirm it, see this post. Also, Seattle office has this warning on their page: "Offices sometimes close because of bad weather or unexpected events. During bad weather, call 206-965-4411 before traveling to make sure we are open."

I have been waiting too. It has been so quiet. I am planning a trip to Hawaii between March 19th and March 27th. It feels like my appointment is very likely to be scheduled during that week.

Here is the question for you all. 

I am planning to get rip of my Vietnamese passport after getting naturalized. I know that the US does not allow you to have 2 citizenships. Does anyone know what do i need to do regard my Viet passport situation? 

I am no Vietnamise but US does allow you to have 2 citizenships...  US might not recognize your Vietnamise legal status but you dont have to give it up.

Just passed my testing and interview... I will have my oath taking later today at 2.30pm

Awesome, congratulations! I've been waiting for your report to see if there is hope for same day oath for those who have their interviews early in the morning. Thank you for keeping my hope alive!

hey... I did a walk in about a week or so before my scheduled appointment... so maybe you should consider that instead of risking them being closed on your appt day. That's assuming they still allow walk-ins, of course.

RIght, as mentioned above i was the unlucky one who had an interview scheduled on the day they were closed. I'm waiting for them to reschedule at this point. I tried calling their 1800 number and seeing if i could reschedule but they told me i could only follow instructions in the mail i got with the appointment. The mail said "Return this letter to us if you need to reschedule" which at this point was impossible. They wouldn't let me do it via phone. So yeah. The worst case scenario for me would've been them staying open and me not being able to make it to them.

 

I checked in the morning in the Seattle office page and it said right there they were closed.

Don't have a timeline? Don't know how to get started with it? Do it for the statistics sake: VJ video guide

Filing for a USC spouse visa (IR-1/CR-1) and not sure what comes next? Check out the VJ IR-1/CR-1 guide

Want to know what's happening with your case? Here's the USCIS tracking page (get an account and see if the case's been 'touched'!). Don't get your hopes up though, some cases never even appear there despite being successfully processed.
