Hey Everyone! 

I filled my citizenship on August 11th and got my fingerprints taken on September 11th, is it normal that I've not heard back about the interview just yet?

Yes.

If you log onto https://myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov/ it will tell you your estimated wait time

Thanks. I guess your letter should come in the next 2 weeks or even less. Good luck.

Its for the whole thing and it is not accurate.

The best thing you can do is find other applicants from your field office on this forum and compare their timelines. This should give a rough idea of when to expect an interview.

Guys I made it! I’m officially a citizen! 😁

 

We showed up with our kids at the courthouse at 9:40am.  Even though the letter said 10 am but the actual ceremony didn’t happen until 11 am.  All the petitioners were lined up to surrender our green cards, be seated and had a small presentation from USCIS officer about what to do after becomes citizen.  Friends and family joined in before the judge showed up and we started to have opening remarks, music rendition, guest talk, take oath of allegiance (they have it in the booklet), pledge of allegiance, and lastly we got to introduce ourselves in front of everyone before picking up our naturalization certificate.  There were 44 people (1 was actually absent) in 19 countries got sworn in today. I got to say thank you to my family which was the most emotional and special to me.  We stayed behind to take pictures with the judge and the flag after the ceremony.   The most exciting moment for my kids was probably when they found out there were cookies and fruit punch outside waiting for them.  The whole ceremony including check-in lasted about 2 hours.  There was voting booth outside for registration but we were in a hurry for next appointment - passport. We scheduled it online as soon as we got the ceremony letter, and the post office needed the original certificate so I only got to take a picture of it before handing it off. 

 

Here I’m still can’t believe its done.  It was so much faster than I expected but it’s probably because where I’m at. Fingers crossed to all of you to have your interview dates very soon.  Good luck to everyone with this journey and I’ll come back to check up on you guys status and rooting for my Aug filers!

 

Finally if someone can help me to change my name and timeline into red font it will be greatly appreciated!  I still don’t know how to do it 🤣!

 

All the best!

Thanks! thats a relief

My husband has his interview schedule for Dec 6. We were trying to plan a flight to his home country in December or January but didn't want to miss or reschedule the oath ceremony.

 

I got crafty and looked up the oath ceremony schedule posted online for our office...and it gave exact dates for the upcoming year! Now I have a better guesstimate of when he might be scheduled.

 

Anyone trying to guess this info might check out the oath ceremony schedule for their location!
