I was considering traveling in the last week of December but was 50/50 on it, so this kinda takes the decision out of my hands. Try to get there and get checked in earlier if you can. The supervisor told me that the interview before me ended ahead of schedule and he could have started my interview earlier, which may have enabled me to make the cut-off of the same day oath. YMMV, of course.

Correction: It wasn't the supervisor but rather the officer who interviewed me.

I had my N-400 interview last week Thursday. It was a combo I-751/N-400 Interview. Both petitions were approved. However I only see the status of N400 has changed online to 'Oath Ceremony will be Scheduled'.

Here’s a crazy question. What if I do apply for N-400 just to get the ROC? Better chance for combo interview where I don’t take the oath but paying an extra fee for acceleration?

++ the ETA for ROC is still another 2 years. I think the website said - don’t contact us until then.

I've filed all of my applications with a lawyer but still did my own homework via this forum. One thing I've heard multiple times now (including from my lawyer) is that USCIS is basically not adjudicating I-751s anymore...they just wait for you to apply for N-400. The I-751 is at the very bottom of the list of priorities for them. Whether that's true or not, no one will know, but I find it interesting that I've heard it multiple times now, including from someone who deals with USCIS on a daily basis.

Thank you fellow Canuck. That’s very concerning, as I have at least three reasons I don’t want to be a citizen anymore. Appreciate you.

In that case on the 'bright side' your status will be legal while the application is pending. Wait until your inquiry date, and/or reach out to your state representative and ask them to intervene on your behalf?

Filing N-400 to speed up I-751 does not always work, sometimes it does the opposite or has no effect.

Suing USCIS for I-751 decision is an option.

Though it looks your case is pending since June 2021. It's pretty normal nowadays for some.service centers.
