Hi everyone, I had my interview today at the Chicago FO. I arrived 20 mins early and it was not very crowded. I waited about an hour to be called up. The IO was professional. No small talk and got straight to the interview but she was nice. I applied under the 5-yr rule and got a green card through my mother who is a US citizen. I took my residential lease and my tax transcripts, driver's license, passport and GC. 

 

She asked to see 5 years worth of my IRS tax transcripts before recommending for approval so I am happy I uploaded to the portal and also took it to the interview. The questions I was asked (got all 6 right so we moved on): 

1. What are the two major political parties in the United States?
2. Who lived in America before the Europeans arrived?
3. What is the name of the Vice President of the United States now?
4. How many amendments does the Constitution have?
5. When was the Declaration of Independence adopted?
6. I forget the 6th question! 

She had me read a sentence off the tablet and then had me write "Mexico is south of the United States" on a tablet. She asked me the yes/no questions and confirmed the name change on my application. She told me she will recommend me for approval, and that now my case is going to final quality review. If everything looks good, they will schedule and oath and I should be notified of the location for the judicial oath within 6 weeks. 

 

Back in 2022 my N-400 got denied because my Green Card printed the wrong residence since date and so I applied too early. She asked me a little bit about this denial and said I should have gotten my money back since it wasn't my fault. I said I cut my losses on that one because the IO during my denial told me I would not get they money back even though it wasn't my fault. Overall, I was in and out of there within 20 minutes or so! As soon as I left I got an update on the portal. 

 

 

Is it normal for it to say: "Your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, was placed in line for oath ceremony scheduling." and then after that say "Case Was Submitted For Quality Review Based On An Approval Recommendation" because I would think it's the other way around?? Can anyone weigh in on this?

Congratulations. I knew you’ll be interviewed by this officer . 🙂. Her first name starts and ends with the same letter , correct?

Reached out to my congresswoman about my husband's case status and they responded fast and got a generic reply from USCIS 😐

Thank you for your inquiry, dated June 12, 2024, on behalf of your constituent, XXXX, regarding his pending Form N-400 Application for Naturalization. We have confirmed that this case remains pending at Seattle Field Office and will be scheduled for an eligibility interview when an interview slot becomes available.... We respectfully request you allow at least 60 days from the date of this email before following up on the status of the case

 

The office replied super fast though - I'm thoroughly impressed.

Weird how people apply on the same day and some get an interview so fast and others wait ages.

True. I kinda feel left out in the group, since so many are done with the interview and I’m still waiting 🕰️ 😁

They both filed on the same day, but one is already naturalized the other waiting for an interview. Weird how it works sometimes I guess.

Feb 17th. Rather weird to not see interview scheduled.

 

I’m really hoping he gets scheduled for the July 4th oath ceremony at Seattle Center though - it’s a big event and the photos look awesome.

Thank u. I am also in Seattle and waiting for interview. May I ask what is your husband’s nationality? And did u ask IO about your husband’s case during your interview?

Congrats!! How was the interview? Mine is tomorrow also in San Antonio, fingers crossed!

 

Also did you get your oath scheduled for Austin or San Antonio? I'm hoping I don't have to make the drive a second time!

[brazibride 43]

Also, good luck tomorrow @YellowDuneBuggy! Hopefully we both have uneventful interviews and walk away with approvals.
