N-400 February 2023 Filers

[R_3 36]

Hey guys, just to update you: got my interview letter today (scheduled for late August), 4 months and 1 week after completing the biometrics. However, the letter doesn't mention 1) if it's a combo interview (I-751 also pending) and 2) if my spouse should also accompany me (it's spouse-based, three-year N400). Please let me know if you have any comment on these points.

I know this has probably been answered, but I’m getting nervous (interview is Tuesday). How long does the actual interview usually take?

haha.. I came here too.. so nervous!  I know the questions pretty good but I am afraid I will blank.   I am bringing originals of everything and tax transcripts.  Not sure what else to bring.

I know…I’m afraid I’m going to forget something! But I’m packing tonight so hopefully we will catch everything…

I have everything sorted and ready to go!  Hopefully I don't forget anything!   I am so nervous!    I keep mixing up a few of the questions, just hope & pray I don't freak out and blank on everything!!   It will all be fine, I am sure!

Oh gosh, I mix a couple up too! I’m making Travis quiz me on the drive over tomorrow, so that it’s all fresh (my short term memory is great but long term is pretty bad lol). I’m trying to keep myself from being too nervous…😬

I'm gonna do the same with Chad.  Review the ones I get stuck on!  We have a few hour drive.  Is Travis going inside with you?   Chad wants to wait in the car.

Is he allowed to go inside with me? I got it in my head that he wasn’t, but if he is then I’d like him to! I think I’ll just get him to quiz me on all of the questions lol…

I am not sure.  I have had conflicting information on that.  I do know my coworkers husband had his interview in March and the officer actually asked him why she wasn't there.  It's odd because she isn't even a citizen and hasn't applied yet.  She was at the hotel.  He still passed an all but I thought that was odd.  I guess I can offer to go get him out of the parking lot if they ask haha

122 days (4 months) since bio appointment, still no interview notice Washington DC (Fairfax, VA) field office. Planning on giving them a call next week if I don't get any updates this week.  Meanwhile, looking at some other DC filer's timelines, people are usually scheduled within 4 months so getting pretty anxious here.

LOL - I might do that too! “Well officer, he’s in the parking lot in a car with such and such license plate…would you like to meet him?” 🤣

Each case is different, my filed office is pretty fast and people who applied 2 months after I did got their interviews and Im still waiting. You're not alone lol, eventually we will get our interviews.

Thanks! Although I’m happy for those who get moved along quickly, I still wonder why this is…

same question, I guess it has something to do with where are you from and your previous status or random extra checks. Who knows lol

Interview was successful, oath ceremony is being scheduled, and feet have been in the Atlantic Ocean. Life is good! 😊
