Hey, everyone.

I have been pretty much lurking here.....not really having anything to add on top of the other posts until now....We were actually a part of the original "faq" back in 1998-1999. I was glad to see it was still going strong!

My husband came over on a fiance visa in Nov 1999, we were married in Jan 2000. We have gone through all of the immigration process but wasn't really in a big hurry to complete his citizenship until we heard of the fee changes. So here we are...in the pool with everyone else that filed in July! :blush:

We went to the Wichita, KS office on Dec 3rd for fingerprints and have been waiting *patiently* (HA!) for his notice of interview. Well, it came today, scheduled for April 15th. Unfortunately, it was also accompanied by another letter that stated the following:

"This is to advise you that, due to unforseen circumstances, we have had to cancel the previously scheduled interview on Tuesday, April 15th for the above applicant. WE regret any inconvenience this may cause.

We will advise you of any further action taken on this case, including any rescheduled interview information, under separate notice."

I tried to call in to see if there was a better reason given and got stuck in the automated system, with the "most recent" update being that they entered our information in October.

Has anyone else received a letter like this? It was really disheartening!

Hello and welcome! :star:

I didn't receive a letter like this so unfortunately I cannot help you :unsure: I hope they will send you another letter soon, THE ONE WITH THE ACTUAL DATE THIS TIME, if not I would schedule an Infopass appointment to go and discuss ####### they're doing with your case by sending a letter like that!!! :help:

Also I am pissed beyond belief although I know I shouldn't be and just be happy for the others... :girlwerewolf2xn: I cannot believe there is an entire thread of november filers who already have their interviews scheduled...#######!!!! :angry:

kshoney - I think Churipu's advice is wise - I'd schedule an Infopass appointment asap!

Churipu - Me too - pissed that is. I'm glad for anybody who gets through the USCIS obstacle course quickly, of course, but it doesn't stop us from feeling bad when there's such a BIG discrepancy in processing times.

You and I and the other July folk ought to be getting interview notices within the next month to 6 weeks - if there's any justice (??)

Hi all,

I finally got my naturalization interview notice today 02/19. I'm going on 04/18/08 at Philadelphia. My priority date was July 11, 2007. I believed you guys will get it too soon.

I have questions:

1.) My passport expired last year. I've never been out of the US since I came in here in 2003. Do I need to renew it for the interview?

2.) In the letter I got one of the requirement is to bring "Photo Identification", this means the drivers license or the picture (2x2)? I submitted 2x2 picture in my application.

3) Is photocopies of Form 1040 our accountant gave us will be okey or do I really need to order from IRS -Form 1722 for our tax?

Thanks.

My interview is April also.

Well, you don't have to renew your passport, I'm sure you'll be okay.

Photo Identification it would be your Green Card, passport, and State ID.

Photocopies of Form 1040 will be okay.

For my interview I'm going to take the same documents. (original and photocopy)
