How did you see that?  Were you checking your own?

Yes, USCIS updates the processing times once a month based on the volume handled vs the volume received....normally this happens on the 15th day of each month but since COVID-19, they've been getting around to it a few days after.

I don't know the reason why you did not get ready for taking the test (just in case they want you to take the exam) because every experience I read would indicate that they would do this with you!  I am sure you did not know, but it would have been safer not to assume the no-exam-situation (actually be ready for the exam) and if they say no exam today, then you don't have regrets that you were ready anyways!

 

In any case, congratulations!  Did he tell you when your citizenship interview would be?

Unfortunately all the experiences I had read were combo interviews at the N-400 stage, not during the I-175. Could you point me in the direction of those who were offered the civics test during I-175?

Hello everyone,

My wife got her Green card through our marriage 5 years ago. Technically, she was eligible to apply for US Citizenship 2 years ago...But, we procrastinated. Now, we decided to apply this month.

While applying, we noticed under eligibility that we can either select one of following

1. Permanent Resident for 5 years OR

2. Permanent Resident for 3 years and married to US Citizen spouse.

 

I'm wondering which option should we select ?

If she qualifies for 5 year one it’s a much easier route - less evidence/documentation required.

when you start filing out the application online, even if you select 3 years based on marriage, it will automatically set you up with 5 years. (You will notice this in eligibility review section).

All, I got an update this morning on my case, "We scheduled your interview". Finally!!!

I'll keep an eye on the documents tab to see the scheduled date, will keep you all posted.

 

What's the best way to prepare for the civics test?

That's great news. Congrats ! Just curious to know which is your local office?

Just checked my email and saw a notice that my interview has been scheduled. I haven't checked my uscis acct and I should get a mail from them too. Glad that Washington DC is moving given the pandemic.

 

@Valor any update from you?

Thank You @Pete20155! Yeah I still remember that. I am so anxious now that I know that my interview has been scheduled and I am still waiting for the exact date. You should get yours too in a matter of days or week(s). Please keep us posted too. 🥰

Wow! That's good news! Haven't been active here for quite some time. Have you received their mail on the same week that you got an update on your case? I wonder how many more weeks does one has once they tell you that your interview has been scheduled.
