Completed biometrics yesterday. Case completion moved from 20 months to 17 months LOL! since i last did biometrics when i adjusted status back in late 2015 they did code 5 (4 fingerprints from my right hand). It was pretty fast, 10 minutes or so.

Anyway the wait for the interview begins.

I wonder how long it take for them to review our case after submitted?

Just finished my Biometrics. My original appointment date was 11/06/2018 but i decided to give it a try and walk in early (today 10/30/2018). The guy at the front desk was very nice and said they would have accepted me last week or even next week. It seems like you can just walk in whenever. My case status changed after about 10 minutes to

to be honest i didnt pay much attention to the estimated wait time because based on the pending I-751 im pretty confident thesse will be done within 5 - 7 months. It does say 12 monthss now tho but im not betting on it taking that long.

Done and dusted sometime around April 2019? My current estimated ROC completion should be somewhere between March and July 2019, so I'd take April for the N400/Combi. Very curious now to see what my N400 case wait time says after fingerprints. I've never known my ACS office seem terribly busy so I'm hoping it falls spectacularly from 22 months to under a year. That's if the completion time after that apt is directly linked to processing cases at local offices.

Then for the heck of it, i decided to google what this meant and i found this thread 

 

https://www.***removed***/forum/showthread.php/240844-N-400-experience

 

the date here is June 2018 so im assuming it was recent but here is their timeline

March 17- We scheduled your biometric appt
April 5- We reviewed your biometrics
