What does "Your case was submitted for quality review" mean, does anybody know? I just had my N400 interview, and this is what says on my status now. How long does it usually last? 

It should only be a day or so.

Has anyone traveled with a stamp on their passport to extend green card? I called to schedule an Infopass appt since my i751 is still pending 18 months later. I need to travel in August but I’m just a bit scared just having the stamp, and also my passport has my maiden name while other identification cards (green card, license, etc) have my married last name. Do you think that’ll be an issue?

 

I’m hoping my i751 & n400 are done by then, but want to be sure the stamp is reliable in case I need it. 
 

thanks!

Interview at USCIS office in Chicago. Arrived on time, I wasn’t sure if they would allow my husband to join given how different USCIS operate but the Chicago folks didn’t even ask questions, they just let him in. we set down for a few minutes and we were called in right away. The officer asked for mine and hubby drivers license,passport and green card. I then told her that when I recently came in for a I-551 stamp they took my conditional green-card since it had expired. 

 

She then said let’s start with I-751 interview, she asked how we met. My husband and I are both chatter box so we told a story of how we met.. she commented on the fact that we travel a lot. It seemed like she had looked at our file. She did not ask for any originals or any additional information. 

 

Then she did my civics test:

  1. What does the presidents cabinet do 
  2. What political party is the president 
  3. Who is the speaker of the house 
  4. Name a right under the first amendment
  5. Who was the First president 
  6. Why does the flag have 50 states 

Reading- what day is Columbus Day?

Writing - Columbus Day is in October 

Then she proceeded to ask the eligibility questions.

She then told me I was approved and should have the oath ceremony in the next 3-4

 

So glad this journey is finally over and I’m grateful to the visa journey community support 

Hi, what are the eligibility questions? 
 

also, this was still the old civics test right? I believe they recently changed it but don’t think it applies to 2020 n400 filers?

Yes, this was the old civics test. The eligibility questions are stuff like, are you willing to the take the oath, support the constitution, etc

I haven't traveled with the stamp but for the name change you should bring your marriage certificate with you (or whatever document proves the name change). The plane ticket name should match your passport name.

I traveled with the extension letter and didn't have issues. I imagine using the stamp is the same.

1 year 10 months and 13 days since I filed my i751 and I'm still waiting. After I had my interview 7 months ago 

The wait on Roc is crazy,  but I pray you get a reply very soon. I got my GC in March.  After waiting almost 2yrs

Finally done with ROC. Interview was 2 days ago and it was not a pleasant experience. The officer asked a million questions to my husband and me separately. A couple of hours later I got a notification saying case was approved. 

 

Good luck to all of you waiting. This process is so frustrating.

Congratulations 🍾.  Could you please share your field office , and does it still give you any estimated completion time ? I checked few days ago just to see that it says “14 months” as my estimated time .... This is really disturbing , I filed my I-751 in June,2019 and haven’t heard anything apart from “ My case is ready to be scheduled for an interview” I guess the CR-1 is always a problems since we haven’t had any interview on the USA soil. 
Also, I believe NY is way too slow / the backlog is terrible ......... NBC is really really frustrating.

I haven’t met anyone on here with similar timeline and is in Brooklyn.

Thank you! 🥰 My field office is Los Angeles and no, it doesn’t show the time of my completion since April for me. I got frustrated too as they transferred my I-751 to NBC but comparing to other cases too, they are starting to pick up the phase. Crossing fingers for you too! ❤️
