Couldn't find one so created it.

 

Here is my timeline

2023

4/13 receipt notice

6/6 interview scheduled

7/25 interview- passed exam, decision can't be made

7/27 recommended for approval and in line for oath.

Xx/xx. Still waiting on oath schedule notice

Howdy! Did you choose to change your name? Wife and I got recommended for approval 07/13, still waiting for the oath ceremony (perusing the court's website, looks like in 2022 they had many judicial oath ceremonies but in 2023 have held only one in January. Going to post the tabulated data once I have time to crunch it).

 That is interesting so it is also as they are just doing the federal judge oaths I assume then which means it will take a while.

Hopefully yours get scheduled soon then! For a data point, my wife's was initially scheduled for 8/6 then cancelled, so since yours can be done at the USCIS auditorium hopefully you're looking at under a month from approval date.

There are reports that people not doing name changes also get sent to judicial oath ceremonies - presumably to make sure they have enough numbers. From past reports we just need around 100 people or so, so it should not take too long, fingers crossed!

(Some of the ceremonies in 2022 are massive - hundreds of people, and relocated away from the courthouse - but presumably that's dealing with the pandemic backlog)

Those big ones were prolly due to COVID times.. I see 2 happening in August Aug 16 and 31st so let's see if we can chosen for those.  

 

Did you have a name change ?

Curious about Chicago timelines. My interview is still on Sept 7th but I have travel plans in January so I’m hoping things move along then. No name change for me.
