I filed online for citizenship today! My I-751 is still pending, so maybe the N-400 will speed things up a bit, or maybe I will still wait a long time and have to do two interviews. Either way, I am feeling pretty excited!

Yes, it's exciting and it should be a shorter wait than I 751. We can also file starting today. Estimate wait time for Utah says about 8 months which is the same as when I was filing for myself 5 years ago in the same state. Hopefully it will stay that way.

Btw what did you submit? Are photos of the applicant required?

I suggest we move our N-400 discussion to the N-400 November 2024 filers forum.

 

However, I did not submit pictures. It was my first time using an online form and at no point did it request a picture of me. As for evidence, I had to provide pretty much identical evidence to I-751, but a complete list of all overseas trips was also required.

Yes that seems right. I follow that discussion as well so we can move on there. Thank you. Yes it does ask for passport stamps copies

Reviving this thread to see where my fellow Nov 2023 I-751 filers are at? It's March 2025 and my wife's I-751 is still processing. Interestingly, they gave her 48 months extension on her I-797 for her green card. It was the Vermont Service Center which on the processing timeline page of this forum, says they are currently processing cases from July 2024 which is strange. But when I check the case status on the USCIS website it says it's still processing and there's nothing I have to do. It also says 80% of cases are complete in 26 months, which it hasn't been just yet.

 

Anyone else from Nov 2023 still waiting?

 

On another note, it's been 3 years since her green card was approved so I will apply for naturalization for her now.

You cannot apply for her naturalization. She has to apply, N-400 is her petition

What I meant was fill out the application for her and she reviews it and signs. She has a lot of trouble filling these things out and it's easier if I help her throughout the process. I'm sure others do the same for their spouses.

Yes, my husband is also still waiting for his I751 and I believe that's the case with almost every one from November 2023. Many of us already applied for citizenship too because you should be able to apply for it since November 2024, 90 days earlier.

Yes, we made a stupid mistake and didn't realize we could do that. So we're applying for it—approximately 1 month after she was issued her green card. So we're 4 months behind. I guess that's no big deal.

You should be fine. It doesn't take very long. It would still be this year.
