Okay, so maybe what I heard was true.  After updating your name (even if you haven't provided name change information) within a few days, you get approval. The whole process took me 11 months except 7 days. https://egov.uscis.gov/casestatus/landing.do Use this link to verify your case.  Because in the other link you will find in the forum later updates the information. Good luck to everyone and remember each case is different.  Throughout the process, I never had an interview.  Only one in my country at the embassy to issue my visa. EE8CAB7F-8743-4074-81C7-735017BD8BB4.thumb.jpeg.fd40bc0ac91acc9f3a38d6e14ad5ecaa.jpeg

Congratulations 🎊 could you provide your Lin number I’m a 1890648 I want to check if I could be close to something soon!

There is a forum specifically for naturalization questions. You probably won’t get responses to your questions in this thread.

FBI Clearances, clean Criminal background letters, volunteer at church, schools, hospitals etc are a nice plus to your file.

Hey Sam90210,

Firstly, Congratulations! I am sure you are relieved.

 

I am LINer as well. Filed in May 2019. So naturally have a long wait ahead of me. Can you share what all documents/proof of marriage you included in your packet? I know its been a long time but would appreciate any information to the best of you recollection. 

 

We did not have any co-mingled assets or bank accounts together but we attached plenty of other evidence so wondering what my changes of straight approval are.

Jan 2019 LIN filer

Received my biometrics appointment letter today. Appointment is scheduled for Aug 19

I moved to a different state recently and had updated the address with USCIS online. Glad that the letter came to my new address!!

Update: Did early walk-in for the biometrics appointment on Aug 13, original appointment was scheduled for Aug 19

Status changed next day on the new myUSCIS site (myaccount.uscis.dhs.gov) to "Fingerprint Review Was Completed", Old site still shows "Case was Received"
