I have my N-400 interview at the end of January. My ROC is still outstanding. The interview letter I received only mentions an interview for my N-400 application and not the ROC. The letter actually says that due to covid I may not be able to take anyone to the interview with me.

 

My question is, should I plan to have my wife accompany me anyway? My inclination is that she should be there, despite what the letter says. Are they likely to just combine the two separate applications into one interview on the day?

 

Any thoughts? 

 

Thanks!

Take your wife with you , will be combo interview definitely, they will not let her in so you have to tell them that I-751 is pending then she will be allowed inside.

So the way to get your spouse in is to tell the security officer you have a pending I-751? I wasn't sure how to go about it for when my interview comes (I, too, have a pending I-751, approaching day 500).

Your question is hard to answer.  Each field office has their own schedule for oath ceremony which depends on how busy that particular field office is.  You may want to provide your field office location (or update your timeline to reflect that). 

I’m just asking for others to share their experience with having their oath ceremony scheduled. I recognize every case is different.

We had our combo interview today. I751 and N400 were both approved on the spot. My wife’s oath is scheduled for tomorrow. The officer was very professional and courteous. First she did the ROC and asked questions to both of us, then she proceeded to interview my wife for her N400.  Can’t wait for tomorrow, excited about the end of this journey. Good luck everyone.

Had my 751/400 combo interview today, both were approved. It was probably the best immigration interview ever, easy and straightforward. Oath is probably going to be at the end of February as the earliest. 
 

Good luck everyone!

Congratulations!! I have my interview in 6 weeks and my roc is also pending (Nebraska SC). My case hasn’t been transferred, was your case transferred before the interview?

Congrats all you guys! I noticed that everyone that had to do the combo 751/400 got their interviews and oath dates very early (early for 400, late for 751). I also applied in september but just for n400 (I got the removal of conditions already) but I still haven't heard back. Anyone here who already had the conditions removed prior and only filed for N-400 and got the interview date?

You’re in the same situation as me by the sounds of it. I already did my ROC some time ago too.

 

for the N400 all I’ve done so far is my biometrics, but haven’t heard anything since! My status online is just saying they are working on it and hasn’t moved since October.

It really depends on your field office.  You may want to update your timeline to get better responses. My wife's N-400 is based on 3 year and she already has 10 year GC.  Interview ins on 1/31.  We are out of Los Angeles field office.

I thought that only me day by day reading the updates on interview schedule for N-400, even October filers; and month by month logging in my account to see the month of waiting is decreased by 1. Lol

No my case didn't get transferred, I didn't even know that I would get a combo interview lol. I think there's some sort of online copy thing for I751 hence my OI can see the I751 during the interview.

Ok guys this is it! I am officially a US citizen 🎉🎉🎉 oath ceremony took place at the Federal Plaza room 310 at 1 on 1/11, my husband accompanied me but was not allowed into the room, I first made a line where I provided my appointment letter signed and dated, along with my old green card and work permit, they gave me the certificate, checked that everything was correct and then was asked to go into room 300 cause 310 was full, they gave us two envelopes, one with a letter from President Biden congratulating us and the other a USCIS package with instructions on life as a citizen, passport application, national anthem, pledge of allegiance and oath of allegiance and a tiny US flag, after that an officer gave a speech from the other room which we watched on a big screen, we all said the oath in unison, they congratulated us, we cheered and clapped and off we went, they asked us if we wanted to take pictures next to a US flag to go to the second floor and we all did, I waved both of my flags 🇺🇸🇩🇴 and I’m so damn happy and proud to finally being an American, it’s been my dream for as long as I can remember and it finally happened, if anyone would know about my immigration story, they would understand how important this achievement was for me and for all of us immigrants that came to this country full of hopes and dreams that are unfolding for us all. The entire process took about maybe 1/2 hr so it was quick, I took longer dolling up lol I looked like a congresswoman 😁 to all of you still waiting I wish nothing but speed and good luck with your new American lives 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 

ps: I am learning the lyrics to the national anthem from that uscis pamphlet and will upload it to tiktok, will sing it better than fergie 😬 if you find it you find it 🤭

 

Good luck amigos 👍🏽 🍀 

attached my very last USCIS update 🎉🎉
