It's torturous! I feel my life is "on hold" until this is resolved.

I understand 100%. It's very emotionally draining with regards to uncertainty, anxiety and planning for the future.

hello, I got a notice of interview but it's only mentions-400 nothing regarding I-751. How could I know if that Combo or not???? I heard about some cases after people went to the interview they couldn't make it because the USCIS didn't know about their pending I-751 or they don't have the file.

I have filed for N400 on January 15th, 2019! Since I am filing in New York, New York, I guess the waiting game will be long 😢

As someone else dealing with the Manhattan field office, I will be curious to see when you get an interview. Did you see in the NYC thread that someone who filed in January 2019 has an interview in June 2019 - how is that possible?!

I still have no updates, only did my finger prints. Still waiting for a notice for the interview.

Hoping it happens for you soon!

 

By the way, I started a Manhattan/NYC field office thread in case you're interested!

Hey guys....here's an update of what's happening to my Estimate completion date. I am so sad....I wonder what happened to you guys? Any massive change?

I read your blog post. I feel your pain. The situation in NYC is really out of control. People become citizens in 4-6 months in many other places. Here it’s 12-18 months.  It’s unjust and grossly unfair. Until there is public or political pressure, nothing will change.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I just wonder if moving to another state would help, yet uprooting everything for a process I have little control of, isn't really looking like a real solution. Do you any idea how we can put pressure for a positive change? 

I hear you. Honestly, had I been paying more attention to all of this,  I would have moved to a different field office area and lived in the region for 3 months in order to be able to apply. Even moving to Westchester or Nassau would have helped significantly. But I didn't start paying attention until April when my 90 day window started. Moving after submission doesn't seem so wise given that there would be a mandatory 3 month wait to be begin with and that's after everything involved in moving.

 

Have you considered writing a letter to your House of Reps congress member? The 2 NY senators, Gillibrand & Schumer? Anything is worth a try to bring attention to this shambles.

I have my interview in less than 2 weeks. Do I need to bring the 2 passport style photos?

You don't need them as they have the photos from the Biometrics appt. It would be safe however to carry 2 photos so that the officer can use them if any computer glitch prevents access to your stored photos! You can always use those 2 photos you carry with you for future passport application if they are not asked during your interview.

Happy June folks, Chicago filer. Eagerly waiting for my interview date !

This morning I got a text saying my n400 case was updated and I also got an email saying the update was “interview scheduled” and that they will mail the notice with details. When I checked the dhs  website where I applied for n400,  I don’t see any update yet,  but in the uscis case status website, it changed to “interview schedule” 

Anyone else went through this? 

 

I applied on January 10th this year and had biometrics on January 18th. My local office is Chatsworth, San Fernando Valley, CA.

Yep. Normal. Should update tomorrow, and the letter should be available on the documents tab in the next few days.
