I applied in Nov 2018. The case status online says that Case was received on November 13th. I didn't get the Letter initially, but got it after I called them and made a service request. This was in the first week of February. There was no update after that, then I called again to ask for biometrics, but they just sent the same extension letter again. No updates after that. My service center is LIN. Do you guys suggest to wait or take some action? 

 

I have to apply for N400 in November 2019.

Does anyone have a WAC case number? Any updates? i'm on Day 237 from my application being received and my last update was April 6th, no biometrics required.

I have a WAC number. I did my Biometrics in April.

 

I see June 2018 files are starting to get approved, which means that, for us Nov '18 filers, we might only be 5 or 6 months away from the Holy Grail.

I finally received notice letter for my biometric appointment. I'm so relieved :whistle:

My status on USCIS website is still "we received your case" though, so it's not updated. I hope everyone will get their notice soon!

If they have sent a hardcopy notice, twice, by mail and you haven't received it I would probably be asking to speak with a Tier 2/3 rep. Maybe somewhere in the system your address is missing from a profile or incorrect.
