N400 November 2022 filers

[AmandaandChayne 734]

Hi all I submitted my N400 application online today and got my receipt notice and biometrics notice reused pdf files online!!! 
still waiting for my lifting conditions application to progress beyond fingerprints reused 13 months after that status changed!!

My wife submitted less than 2 hours ago.  We should have been October 31, but her lawyer had challenges with the online N-400.
 

The online form is rather buggy IME / IMO, but it leads to faster approval so I grudgingly prefer it.

I'm back on this hamster wheel again.  Submitted my N400 application on 11/2/22 and literally within 10 mins of submission, the biometrics reuse notice appeared in the documents section.  Thankful that I don't have to make a trip to the ASC for that.  Now the wait begins for interview date.  The estimated completion time for my case went down from 19 months (after submission) to 9 months after the bio reuse notice appeared; though I know this estimate means absolutely nothing.

Hello all,

 

Filed my family application 5/Nov/2022. Here are the details,

 

1. Both my wife & I are 5 years based applicants.

2. We both filed our individual applications. We assume that our 9 years old daughter would be automatically naturalized when we are. So we could all apply passports together.

3. I have been on F1, F1/OPT & H1B visa in the US until I turned 26. So I chose I was not qualified for Select Service in the application.

4. We also lost most of our original documents when we relocated a couple of years ago. Although we had a scanned copy of our marriage certificate and uploaded it in the application, we both also wrote a letter mentioning the absence of original documents.

5. As additional documentation we also uploaded our tax filings for the past 4 years.

 

Receipt showed up almost instantaneously. Biometrics waived for both of us. Please let me know if I missed anything.

I will keep the community posted on progress. Thank you.

I was going a bit crazy wondering why everyone else was getting biometric reuse and lawfully didn’t say a thing.  Sure enough, clicking the documents tab there is biometrics reuse notice. Thanks!

 

edit: the case history from USCIS doesn’t mention reuse either.

Yeah it is tricky to see on phone. BTW if you click that pull down menu on case status. It show all tabs including documents. Good luck and be blessed

Submitted my application a few minutes ago online! ROC is still pending with no update since August 2021. Those of you who got the biometrics reuse notice - did you have to get biometrics for the ROC? They reused mine for that already, so should I expect to have to go and get them done again this time?

Biometrics  were re-used  for our RoC   
 

Keep checking your Documents tab for re-use. We did not get a notification or status update for N-400. Whereas for RoC the case status did update when biometrics were reused.

Just checked my online account, and there's a biometrics reuse letter dated today! Nice to know I won't have to go to a service center. Hopefully things won't take tooo long...

Hi everyone. Submitted N-400 application for my mom 4 weeks ago, does anyone know the average time this process would take?
