Hi everyone, 

Good news , I just received my interview date which is gonna be in April 7th in NYC at the Federal Plaza. 

I applied through my lawyer in September 14th (the USCIS received it on the 22nd)  There is hope for New Yorkers as well! Even tho California is way faster....

But so happy anyway!!! Good luck to you all!

Has anyone just been stuck on "actively reviewing" since they filed? I'm an SLC filer and filed end of september 2021. No pending ROC or anything. 

 

Time to interview depends strictly on your local office. We are still waiting, based on the VisaJourney stats, our local office is currently on Oct/Nov 2020, so we have roughly another year to wait.

Hi guys, I applied Sep 15, interview notice sent Dec 21, scheduled for Jan 29. Philadelphia jurisdiction. I am surprised I am hearing back so soon. 

My Jan 29 was cancelled because of the snow storm. Interview rescheduled for 3/7. I passed the interview yesterday now waiting for naturalization ceremony notification. The officer said it'll be 4 weeks from now. 

 

Application Sep 15

Interview Mar 7

Thx. Can you share your experience. Q, etc.. 

The officer was super nice, yesterday was over 70 degrees in Philly so he called me in the morning and told me to go as soon as I can before the appointment time I think so he can go home early. His exact words are "whenever you come, I'm going to take care of you"

He was joking left and right with me the whole time. I am a CPA so my first question is when is tax return due. Then asked a couple like rights for every citizen, who's the president right now etc. Don't remember every single one.

For English he told me to read a sentence and then told me a sentence to ask me to write it. Then you can change your name to whatever you want it to be. 

I took home a piece of paper saying congrats you passed and you are in line for naturalization ceremony. :D

Thx for your response. How long did it take?. Did he ask you about detailed history of your work, home addresses, or only your most recent ones. Thx again
