N-400 December 2024 Filers

[Todd55 39]

We filed online on dec. 20th.  We already have our 10 yr. green card which we received in may of 2024.  We have received notice of acceptance same day dec. 20th,  and reuse of biometrics notice as of dec. 30th.  I find it a little strange that we have not got any notifications online about the reuse of biometrics. The case status still says case being actively reviewed.   Hopefully  things move fairly quickly.  We wanted to take a vacation to south korea this yr.

Status update is optional.

A lot of the times online status does not reflect actual state of affairs.

 

I have the same, biometrics reuse was never a status on my case, though biometrics were reused.

Thanks for the clarification my friend.

Hi everyone,

 

I got married in April 2019, my green card say resident since Sept 2019, and my ROC was approved in April 2023. Does it matter if I file the N400 under general provision or spouse of U.S. citizen?

It does matter. General provision requires much less evidence, as you don't have to reprove the marriage. Spouse doesn't have to take time off to go with you to the interview. Most officers also are more familiar with regular N-400 under general provision. Overall, if you have an option, always pick 5 year rule. I was in your situation and filed under general provision.

This is very helpful. Thank you!
