I would wait until you get the bometrics done.

I wanted to do that. We basically delayed our move by 3 months waiting for the bio but the pandemic threw all the plans into a mess. I doubt there will be call for bio even in next month for may filers. :(

 

Waiting every extra month here is costing us almost $500 extra in rent. Not sure what to do. Ill still be here for next 30 days so I hope bio apt comes up during this time.

Look, considering the actual context we are living in, maybe if you move out, and the same day you move you change your address on the page online, maybe the case is going to be delayed a couple of months but you are going to save money. I think cases are gonna get delayed for a few months no matter what happens. But you never know, what if you move next week and they issue the biometric appointment to your old address. Nobody knows what's going on on the USCIS offices unless you work there :)

 I got an interview notification for I751. I applied in NOV 2018. nothing for N400. I was hoping to get a combo interview and be done with all this process but I don't think combo interviews are an option right now. I haven't get fingerprints for N 400. lets see how long it takes. sooo tired. 

Hang in there! The process is long, but eventually it'll be over and worth the trouble. Did you just get your interview notice? How long did you wait in "we are ready to schedule your interview" update before you got the actual interview?

My estimated time still says December, 2020 but I highly doubt that it's gonna happen. Considering that I still haven't done my biometrics and the current situation in Portland, I think it will be pushed to next summer or so. Fingers crossed though.

Pay USPS to forward all your mail to new address. For $2 you'll get everything routed to your new address. Even talk to your local delivery person, Usually 2-3 people at USPS are assigned to a territory so you can just let them know that you're moving
