Guys, I can't believe this. It's almost 3 years since filing I-751 and 2 years since filing N-400, and today I just got updates on both: card is being issued and interview is set up in 2 weeks. I did reach out to ombudsman and congressman both, so maybe one of those (or both) things helped speed things up. At this point, I am sure it was just stuck on the farthest shelf because people who filed way later than us are getting citizenships. I'm almost certain there are no "security checks" happening still 2+ years later; it's just a system's mistake that nobody bothers to correct. Please keep fighting; don't just sit and wait like I was for such a long time.

Any thoughts about using the "Outside Normal Processing Time" USCIS form? Concerns? Experiences?

I did this twice and told to expect a reply by a certain date. It NEVER arrived, in both cases. 

(I also did it earlier for another case and they did send me a useless reply, but a reply nevertheless. Nothing in the last 6 months for those ONPT forms).

Well. I guess that means I only have to wait another three months since l filed three months after you. Thank you so much USCIS. You are the hardest working government department in America.  You all deserve a raise. Excellent 👍 work!

I hope you're doing whatever you can to speed them up. I chalk my "progress" up to reaching out (twice) to Ombudsman and then to my local congressman.

Tried all that. No movement. So now I am trying flattery! I'm pretty sure that I will hear from them soon, now that I have started to recognize their excellent work. They are second to none. Can anyone think of a government  department that's performing better than them? Scrach, scratch, scratch.

OMG finally some good news. I logged into my account this morning and got my interview notice. I am scheduled for Feb 9, at 8:00am. I cannot believe it. Fingers crossed they will not cancel it again like they did some other people.

Nice. What's your field office and date of filing? Did you do anything special to push your case?

I filed April 20, 2020, Field office is San Diego. 

I have opened several service requests, contacted congressman, Senator, Ombudsman. They said my file was stuck at the NRC.  I filed the FOIA on 12/10. I honestly have no idea if this is what triggered things but it obviously didn't hurt.
