Hi guys,

 

I updated the spreadsheet to include those who updated us between yesterday and today.

I also added a second sheet tab that gives us some perspective on how many have been approved, gotten interview dates and those of us who are still waiting.

I would love some feedback on this second tab :) 

Thank you. Mine was the 3 years eligibility as well., thanks for doing an excellent job @Amadia

My wife's journey ended yesterday after her combo Interview yesterday.  Her oath cermony was giving right after she did the interview. She was the last one of the day in Charleston, SC.  Good luck to everyone else. 

Was you with her during the interview? A lot of questions were asked about the marriage? Thanks

Hi everyone 

my interview was initially scheduled for 24th March-in Chicago,but got cancelled. 
I received a new interview date for 20th August. 
 

Can someone please update the spreadsheet? 
 

Also, I see some filers having the oath ceremony right after the interview. Is this always happening? How would I know if I have the oath ceremony right after the interview?

Some field offices are doing same day oath ceremonies, not all of them.

Movement, FINALLY! I got a notification that action had been taken on the case, and when I logged in, there was a message saying that an interview had been scheduled, but nothing yet in the documents tab to say when: how long does this usually take to show up?

 

231 days since submission. Months since there was an estimated timeline.

 

Now I'll start reading back to find out what we need to know for this: stuff to bring? What to expect? I haven't seen anyone else in this thread who's in Boston, but maybe there's someone in the wider N-400 group.

 

Whoo hooo!

I'm a fellow Boston filer. Just had the same update over the weekend - interview is on 9/10. Finally.

No, I don't. 

Only when persons attend their interviews and pass they are either asked to wait a bit for their oath taking or are told that their oath taking will be scheduled.

They’re allowing only the applicant inside the USCIS office due to COVID-19. I had my interview last week and the IO focused on the tests and going over my application, she did casually ask how long we have been together at the end before telling me I was recommended for approval.

I completed my Oath two weeks ago, but got a notification that the my 10yr green card was mailed to me from my 751 application. Do I need to return this when I get it, or shouldn't matter?

This is funny how incompetent these people are!

Just mail it back as a "Return to Sender" but contact USCIS to let them know that they mailed one out and you will be returning same as you are now a US citizen :)
