A decision Cannot be made yet about your application.

[CanadaEx 1]

Hello, All:

I submitted my N400 application in September 2020 via VAWA.
I was finally asked to come in for interview, and I attended on 07/01/2022.
However, the officer told me 2 interviews will be conducted, one for I-751 which was still pending when I applied for my N400 via vawa.
I went through the interviews for about 1 hour, after which, the officer, made me to sign the Naturalization Certificate with my name and profile on it. I also signed the Oath Declaration all in softcopy on the iPad. The officer also asked me Allegiance to U.S. questions, which I answered in affirmative. After the interview  the officer proceeded to give me another form N-652, stating that I have passed the English test and U.S. history and government tests.  However, a decision cannot be made yet about my application.

 

At this point, I don't know what to expect next, and when to expect a decision.
I will appreciate your input, and thanks in-advance.

This is normal. You may have to wait few days to weeks to rarely a couple of months to get the decision.

Thank you so much for your swift reply @elmers

Confused, if you applied for VAWA how do you have an active I-751 case pending?  How did you file for VAWA?

Found the info from a previous post.  They will not approve your N-400 until they have approved I-751.  Since you filed an abuse waiver - I-751 there is no certain timeframe as to when that will get approved.

At this rate @elmers i wont be to sure a out few days. And not to damp your spirit @CanadaExbut if you lucky yes few days maybe weeks if you not as lucky as me which I did same process as you, you will wait for a while. I am still awaiting decision since my interview January 13th. I was just told by tier 2 officer and given a ticket # that my local office is the one to take a look and figure it why it has taken over 172 days.  Good luck

My wife and I had our combo I-751 and N-400 interview today with similar outcome. Her paper stated that she passed the N-400 exams but a decision cannot be made yet. The office told us that since her biometrics were taken so long ago, they will have to re-run them and then a decision will be made for the I-751. Does anyone know how long this process will take and how soon we’ll know an answer for both?

It took the USCIS Sacramento field office 3 weeks to make a decision in our i751/n400 case.
