Nov 9: I saw "Interview was Scheduled" that day  -- I was not notified by email. I was sent an "update your Case Tracker app" notification and that's how I realized.

 

USCIS website has "Interview Scheduled.pdf" document there but it currently just leads to an error notice, so I don't know the interview date yet.

 

Los Angeles office (I HOPE!)

Filed online: 8/03/2022 (biometrics reused)

 

 

Hi there....were you able to find out what date your interview in Downtown LA office is?  I am curious as that will give an idea of when ours may get scheduled.  Thanks.

My naturalization interview was just scheduled for end of November. A bit surprised since I only filed the N-400 in late August (and the I-751 in September last year), thought I'd go well into next year before hearing anything. Also, they didn't send an email about this update, but they did for all other updates (bio waived, change of jurisdiction, so on). So when I got the letter today I was ready to throw it out thinking it was just a copy of the jurisdiction update.

Good luck on your interview today 🍀🙏🏻.

Applied n-400 (already approved 10 years GC)  on AUG 31. Apreared for the N-400 interview last week and approved.

on interview, waited for 30 mins and after that an officer took me in and it took 15 mins in total. 

the officer asked following questions

1. what 1 promise you give as an us citizen 
2. only right for US citizen 
3. responsibility for us citizen
4. How many U.S. Senators are there?
5. name 2 US holidays
6. not remembered

Then english verbal and written 1 line for each. Asked some personal questions, didn't ask any document or photo or anything, but it depends on case to case.  

And took my both green cards, kept the 2 years one with them and gave back the 10 year one. Gave me a printed letter  - recommended for approval

A week later got an oath letter saying naturalization ceremony after 2 months 

 

if anyone is preparing for the civic test, get a free paperback copy from biometric center. can just visit the ASC and ask for the copy. Also flashcards are good options for self study/

Hello all, just found this thread of aug filers. Add me to the list

Filed Aug 15th, Aug 30th interview scheduled, Oct 13th interview. Passed interview.

IO said 3-4 weeks for oath ceremony letter, online says 30 days.. we have passed both of those dates, anyway to check status of case besides logging in?

Also, forgive me new to this but what is for I-751? I have had a GC for 11 yrs and just filed N400 for citizenship, what does form I751 do?

I751 is the removal of conditions on a greencard. You don't need to worry about that.

Thanks, I guess it is hurry up and wait. Has any August filer gotten an oath ceremony scheduled yet?

Thank you for the info.Yesterday my I-751 was approved and placed in line for the oath ceremony. I will wait 1 more week because the IO at the interview told us that the oath ceremony date might be end of December or early January.
