Hi. I am in same boat as you. Filled I-751 in Dec 2021 and N-400 ( SF office) in Jan 2022 and still waiting for interview to be scheduled. I never received 4 year extension letter. 

 

Hope the California/Bay Area folks get some updates soon! The wait is nauseating 😕

Sacramento office here and I haven't gotten any updates apart from the extension letter.

Oath completed this morning! It was very anticlimactic at the USCIS field office - they were doing what the officer called an "abbreviated" ceremony every half hour so it was just the oath in a big group and no other fluff. Got my certificate and now all I've got to do is the passport application, update SSA with my status, and register to vote.

 

Such a relief to be done with USCIS stuff now!

Also here in the same boat as well.  Filed 1-751 in February 2022 and N-400 in January 2023.  Got the 4 year extension letter and that is it.  The website does say 4 months for an update but who knows if that is accurate at all.

 

Hopefully this will be completed soon.

Not sure if I can ask this here, but this question is for my fellow January filers who already applied for their passports. Did y’all get your supporting documents back yet? I did my Oath in August and had my appt for passport 2 weeks after. Received passport two weeks ago and was wondering how long it’d take for my supporting documents. It’s saying up to 8 weeks online but just wanted to know if anyone who applied received it back earlier than that. Thanks.

Finally my I-751's status changed to New card is being Produced.

I got mine back like 2 weeks later after I got my passport.

Been waiting on ROC since December 2021. Filed for citizenship in January 2023. Had the interview today and passed. They are trying to get her oath done today because she’s due to give birth in 2 months.

My interview was scheduled today (for November 20)! I filed my N400 back in December 26 2022 so it's close enough to January 2023, I'm in the SF field office.

 

So I hope things start happening for the SF Bay Area people soon. I had a bunch of activity on my I751 this week before anything happened to my N400. Basically my latest case status for the I751 is New Card is being produced from a couple days ago after it was transferred a couple of times to different USCIS offices (who knows why). Then today I got the N400 interview date. Hopefully this is done before the year ends.

Hi Everyone 

 

after a very long story which included having to contact my senator to get things unstuck, my oath ceremony has been scheduled for the 17 of Nov! 
 

I travelled to Jamaica and Canada between my interview which was May 4 and my scheduled oath ceremony, it says to bring travel documents with me… what documents do they want? Anyone know?

I just re-read wife's oath invitation.  I assume they want you to bring the passports you used for the travel after your interview.

Jesus that's a long wait! I'm so glad it's over for you. Hope time flies before November 17th.

Hi, I have a question to those of you who have had your interviews yet. Did you need to bring your foreign passport to the interview or ceremony? Or was the green card + state ID / driver license enough? I will be renewing my passport soon so for a few weeks I won't have it, and if they schedule my interview during that time, what am I supposed to do? Reschedule it for later?

I just had my interview this week, and I brought two passports. The one that I used to first enter the US 4 years ago that is now expired, and the new one that I just got earlier this year. An officer took both, scanned them, and then gave them back. In your case, maybe you can request a paper from your embassy saying that your new passport is in the works and they took your old one? For Russian passport renewals they never take away an actual passport that's why I don't know how common it is not to have it during renewal. In any case, would be good to have some sort of paper that you can show if your interview and passport renewal overlap.
