Booo I just got notice that I need to schedule a biometric appointment- they are not reusing mine (I had it waved for my still pending I751) 

That sucks, but at least you know you paid for something & are getting it, unlike the re-use but still paid for biometrics.

Has anyone else that has an active I-751 had a transfer of either their N-400 or their I-751 to a different location?

Filed N400 for me and my wife on 1/28. No idea how to check my ETA or if my bio will be reused. I’m in Seattle. 
 

Also have no idea if I have to file a N400 separately for my daughter (10 yrs old) or if there is a separate process for children. 
 

Just going with the flow 🫠

Welcome to the thread.

 

Do you have a USCIS account to track progress?

If you do not have an account, then you will need to create one. If you already have one (I think you would if you file online), then log into that account, check under documents tab to see the NOA and bio-reuse (if they do) mailers.

 

If you do not have account, you will get them (NOA and Bio) by USPS and you will get them in 7 - 10 days, or 5+ business days. You should register the account online so you can check to make sure you get interview scheduled letter online, before you get it via usps.

 

since your daughter is under 18, you DO NOT apply for n-400. Wait for either you or your wife gets naturalized certificate, then apply for her passport/passport card and then claim the citizenship with N-600 ( I believe, some one correct me if I am wrong). She inherits the citizenship from the parents, provided she is under 18 and some other rules.

So, how long roughly, are filers seeing interview dates set?

Also, since they reverted back to the 2008 civics question set, how are people studying (printed entire set as well as used online USCIS tests).
