When you guys mention your apply date, is that the date u mailed your package? Or the date it was delivered to them? Or the date they received it in their system?

 

I sent mine on 23rd June. Delivered on 25th June. But online it says we received your application on 15th July and the noa they sent to me says priority date 25th June. So what's my date of application really?. I'm confused.

Same here. Not a single update since initial mail 5 months ago.  I understand being in a large city means more applications to process but it’s just crazy the amount of delay there is now due to COVID and all.

I think maybe it depends on the field office?
Cleveland Courthouse is still closed, and I wonder if they are hoping to reopen and have the oath ceremony there (as it normally is)... 

it was a little disappointing because of the expectations I had after seeing everyone posting about having it right then and there. 
 

my status changed to “you attended your interview” and “we approved your application”.

Hi! Did you receive the oath date yet? I got approved on October 1st, the notification changed into oath ceremony has been scheduled on October 6th but haven't received any mail and it's not showing up on my documents tab yet.

My wife had her citizenship interview / test today in the Manchester, NH, office. She was approved :), and was told that an oath ceremony would be scheduled and she'll get a letter soon.

Congratulations! I had my big interview for AOS in Manchester, NH. It's such a nice USCIS office and very nice people work there.

Well, NH is super nice in general lol

I just received biometric reuse notification in the mail today. The notice has also been uploaded to my online account. I'm glad my case is moving forward!

Congrats. It is nice to see things moving.  When did you did your last biometrics? I had my biometrics before a year for travel document, I am wondering if they can reuse it for N400. But, there was not move since May.
