Why did you guys wait that long to apply for N400? 

Just curious

We needed wife's divorce certificate. She obtained it on a regular trip back to Taiwan. By that time, it was simpler to file under the 5-year rule.   Bottom line:  It took the N-400 to "unstick" the I-751.

Yes, some people like @Crazy Cat's wife had to wait close to 4 years. In their case, they filed N-400 with I-751 pending.

 

You can apply for citizenship whenever you become eligible. In many cases this can speed up approval for I-751. In other cases it won't have any effect at all.

Ahh I see

40 months after submitting the I-751 (we had been waiting for an interview since early 2019), my wife applied for citizenship.  4 months later both I-751 and N-400 were approved during a combo interview.  six weeks after the interview, she took the citizenship oath and became a citizen.   

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400

Oh wow, thanks for the breakdown. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to how they do things. That length of time for a green card is just crazy.

Mailed our I751 packet on 10/27/22 via FedEx. 

 

Delivered to Elgin 11/01/22

 

Text received 11/04/22 MSC

 

Biometrics Appt. received 11/19/22 NBC

 

Biometrics taken 12/02/22

 

Today 03/08/23 Rec'd updated receipt with 48 month extension. Notice date 03/01/23.

 

USCIS statis online shows unavailable. Has been this way for the past month.

 

Anyone else experiencing this?

 

What about the update to interview waivers per the Biden Administration. Will this now expedite some of those backlogged cases?

 

Good to hear from you! If I check status via MyUSCIS,  it says unavailable and if I directly check via case status, it still has 'received ' . Also, I am assigned to the YSC, they are the most backlogged office.

MyUSCIS has issues with status, many people report it daily. Just keep checking using case status.

Hi Reg, sigh guess that's just the way it is.

No news for me for 333 days. No 48 month extension, last news was biometric reuse. Good luck!

How long after you applied did you receive news about biometrics? I haven't heard nothing since last October.
