Got news today that my N-400 interview got scheduled! I'm equal parts stressed and excited to be so close to done with my immigration journey. I'm still wondering though if I can bring my spouse with me to the field office. The notice doesn't say it's required (or even specifically allowed for that matter).

Given your I751 is already approved, its generally not necessary to bring in your spouse for just N400. If you had a combo interview it would be, but from everything folks have mentioned, it doesnt look like they will allow your spouse for a N400 only interview.

Submitted on 6/18/22, reused biometrics. We filed online and assumed it would be processed in Dallas. We got the notification that my wife is scheduled for her interview on 11/18 at the Irving, TX office!

 

Hoping for a smooth process. 
 

We have a flight to visit my family on December 7. What happens if the oath is after that? Is there any way to reschedule?

My interview is a day before yours. All the best

Logged into my USCIS account yesterday to check if there was any movement on my N-400 or I-751 since a fellow applicant got email/text notification yesterday and we both filed to Nashville the same day a few months back. Turns out, I was also scheduled for my interview yesterday!! It is December 13th. Nothing has changed on my I-751 case though, just that last month it randomly said that my previous finger prints would be used. The interview notice references my N-400 not my I-751 so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to bring my spouse or not?? Any insight here? My I-751 doesn't show approved or anything. 

 

Also - friendly reminder for those waiting for an interview notice - login like weekly - I still have not received a text or email saying my interview was scheduled and up to this point I have received a text and email for every other update!!!

 

How long after is the Oath ceremony?? 

 

Any advice on the above would be appreciated! I guess I could always email them via the My USCIS portal when i login and ask the question?

Also -- what did people waiting for an n-400 interview without an i-751 approved yet bring to the interview evidence wise other than the originals of marriage certificates, children together birth certificates, spouse birth certificate, divorce decrees if applicable? Do we need pictures/social media print outs/print out of shared banking stuff/mortgage or lease stuff?

Filed N-400 on 06/28/2022 and Biometrics appointment done on 07/19/2022. Case is being actively reviewed since then. What’s your timeline?

Filed 11/10 biometrics waived 11/10. Sorry that probably doesn't really help you. I was just trying to get a feel of how long I may have to wait. I'm guessing it's over 6-8 months since you haven't been scheduled yet.

Yes, and my online account says it would 6 more months. I am not much relying on that timeline because Sacramento field office is heavily backlogged. I will be happy if I hear something in first quarter of 2023.

I saw someone's account last week from Sacramento and it was about 8 months. So hopefully you'll hear soon

[SMK 89 68]

Had my N-400 interview last Tuesday -- agent got to the question where they asked if my removal of conditions was approved, I said "no???". He looked shocked and said "what?!" He then opened the big folder in front of him and said "oh i guess i have to do that too then. For that reason i cannot approve your n-400 today and just give you a receipt that you passed the interview but pending/undetermined at this time." 

 

He asked if i have anything else to give him for the i-751 (removal of conditions) and i said i brought our recent health insurance re-elections for 2023 showing and our daughter (born after we were married in the u.s.) is covered under my husband and some more recent mortgage/lease statements showing we are both still listed at same address/responsible for the payments monthly. This is in addition to a stackkkkkkkk of evidence submitted a year and a half ago when i originally submitted my i-751.

 

He sort of said something along the lines of, " Ii don't forsee there being an issue with your approval especially with this healthcare insurance stuff, mortgage/lease stuff, and a child together -- but i'll have to look through it -- hopefully I'll get to it sometime next week."

 

Well "next week" has now passed and not a single change in status -- i-751 still only shows finger prints reused from October, and the n-400 still just shows as interview was scheduled. 

 

HAS ANYONE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH A PENDING I-751, GOING TO THE N-400 INTERVIEW, PASSING AND THEN THE OFFICER/AGENT SAYING THEY NEED TO REVIEW THE I-751 FILE BEFORE THEY CAN APPROVE THAT THEN APPROVE CITIZENSHIP IF THEY THINK YOU SHOULD BE APPROVED? HOW LONG DID YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR A CHANGE/UPDATE ONLINE? HOW LONG SHOULD I WAIT BEFORE I SHOULD BE WORRIED/TRYING TO FOLLOW-UP? HAS ANYONE HAD TO FOLLOW-UP TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THEIR CASE IN A SITUATION LIKE THIS? IS IT VIA AN INFO PASS, OR DO WE USE OUR INBOX THING IN THE ONLINE PORTAL TO FOLLOW-UP?? IS THERE A DURATION OF TIME BEFORE MY N-400 INTERVIEW STATUS LIKE EXPIRES AND I HAVE TO RE-DO IT???

 

I knew i should of asked more questions when I was there but i was nervous to seem pushy ... but he just put my file on the back of his desk and my heart sank thinking that with the holidays around the corner my case is going to just get forgotten on the back of that desk. I was hopeful this morning and thinking maybe today i'll see updates, but no updates so now i feel like my hope of it happening for xmas is non-existent especially with this winter storm.

 

Any stories/guidance/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I can't wait for this process to come to a close -- it's been emotionally draining for the last almost 3 years.... AS YOU ALL KNOW VERY WELL!!!
