filling Date is 06/01/2024 more than one month now and no interview notice yet,

I understand nyc processing timeline is around 3 to 4 month, the earliest that i saw on visajourney is one from filling date to interview notice and who knows i can be one of the luckiest😁

To me, 3-4 months is a high expectation. Maybe few lucky ones were processed at that speed, but I wouldn't count on it. Interview in a month certainly happens, not sure if it's the norm though.

I think you should start expecting interview notice around August unless if there is a magic, magic happens all the time, I'm looking for a magic to happen

I filed in NYC on march 26 but haven't had my interview scheduled yet. Have been waiting for over 100 days now.

You are Right, but that processing time is not accurate, a lot more people are getting their interview notice earlier than that  processing time

Be happy because you have already accumulated 3 month of the waiting time, you are close

Agreed. Also worth remembering about filing in 90 day early filing window... People don't typically get interviewed / naturalized in the 90 day window. Wonder if @namitxyz filed outside or inside 90 day window.

[Shiva-Shakti 3]

filed inside the 90 day window. My 3 year mark for conditional green card was complete on june 24, 2024.

The timelines on USCIS are from filing to case resolution - so this includes the time between approval and oath + additional processing between the interview & approval + post oath. For the NYC office, that means that number is about 1.5 months over stated from when you would get an approval because you need to consider oath, additionally, you will get your notice about 30 days before (i.e. 1 month), and you can subtract out an extra 2 weeks for interview to approval and oath to finalization. Functionally, this means we can very roughly estimate about 80% of cases will receive a notification within 5 months of filing.

 

To verify this hypothesis: I pulled the data from NYC from VisaJourney and analyzed the time between filing and interview date for the last 3 years and made a histogram and bucketed into useful the likely timeframes. The results are in the images attached. To put it simply, in New York City, you have a 77% chance of being scheduled for your interview within 95 days of filing your application on line. If we go to the extremes, we can also see the worse case scenario observed in Visa Journey data is around 180 days, or receiving a notice around 5 months after filing. So, the tactical data, at least from VisaJourney, is a lot better than the USCIS numbers would suggestion. That is, there is about 80% chance you will have your interview scheduled within 3 months and an extremely high likelihood you will have it within 5 months.

 

My point is, crunch the data if you're really worried. The New York City USCIS Office seems highly proficient and I personally was impressed when I saw these numbers.
