What letter should i receive from USCIS after N400 interview?

I think you’re stressing unnecessarily and asking us to be soothsayers. At this point we can only conjecture what that letter says. What we think doesn’t matter, it’s your decision whether or not to cut your holiday short and rush home.
 

I wouldn’t because if it’s an RFE you have 30 days to reply and if it’s an oath letter generally you will have two weeks or so minimum from the time you get the notice to the actual oath date.

Definitely not asking the community to be soothsayers. I'm asking people, who are more knowledgeable than me, what the notice could be based on what documents are historically sent out after an N400 interview that are 1 page long. 

 

You're right, either way I should be fine if I wait to open it until next Sunday. Fingers crossed it's good news and not a RFE. A RFE would be strange considering it says I was approved in my online portal.

I believe  it's a letter saying your petition  was approved. Possibly the hard copy of what you saw online. Especially if it says approved online then the is nothing to worry about. It could only be one thing ( hard copy) of approval.

You don't get an official approval notice for the N-400 though, other than the standard "you're recommended for approval" or "decision cannot be made" that you get in hand at the actual interview, not in your online account or via mail. You leave the interview with this letter. He said he already got this letter at the interview too, so it would be random for them to mail him an extra copy.

I'll let you all know what letter it is next week. I'm guessing the only thing it could be is an approval confirmation letter, but I've never seen one of those sent out before. I don't think it's a RFE, I googled around and it looks like those are not 1 page either.

Okay so this is really embarrassing, but I double checked my informed delivery email and noticed it was dated 11/13/2020 and not 2021. I just so happened to get a notice from USCIS on the exact same day last year. When I checked my email yesterday, it displayed an informed delivery email from a year ago?! Thanks Apple Mail! LOL

 

I feel really stupid, relieved

I got a "decision cannot be made" because on my N400 application I said that I was living at 2 addresses at the same time back in 2017. I explained that itwas because my in-laws are divorced and have their own houses, me and my wife used to move between the two houses every few weeks and the interviewer found that suspicious.

 

He said the reason he couldn't approve me on the spot was due to my prior living situation. He said he was going to do some more digging and if everything was okay he'll approve me, if not he said I'll get a RFE.

 

However, i just got notification today that I was recommended for approval so getting a RFE doesn't make sense...

Curious about the outcome of your case. Please keep us posted

Generally how far out is the oath after receiving the letter? as long as its not next week ill be okay

Our letter was generated 11/20 for a 12/14 ceremony

I completed my N400 interview a couple weeks ago. I'm now visiting my parents for a week and saw that I received a 1 page letter from USCIS via informed delivery. I can see that the notice date is the date I applied for citizenship.

 

I also received an online notification today - "your oath will be scheduled".

 

I'm just wondering what this letter could be? Could it be the date I must appear for my Oath? Or is there generally another letter before this?

 

I'm just worried I might have an a oath scheduled for next week!

 

Thanks

 

 

When your status changes to “oath ceremony scheduled” -

 

Log into your account, go to “documents” and the oath ceremony letter will be there.  It’s a 4 page PDF
