    melonshake reacted to NVE in N-400 May 2020 filers   
    Im just writing here to give an update on Los Angeles. (Marriage 3 years)
    Applied for N400 on may 3rd 2020, received reuse biometrics late december 2020, mid january 2021 I received a letter that my interview was scheduled in Los Angeles for feb 22, yesterday (feb 22) went to the interview and passed, took 15 min after the officer called my name in the lobby, they asked me 6 questions from the 100, got every one of them correct, read and wrote a sentence and they ask me couple questions, they didnt ask for any other paperwork other than ID, green card and passport. Even though I brought taxes, pics etc etc... after the officer said I passed the tests and was approved to become a citizen she scheduled a date for my oth ceremony which is tomorrow (2 days after the interview). I hope everyone in this forum gets their interviews soon. This entire journey is very stressfull and wish everyone the best!

    Hi all, I am officially a US citizen as of a few hours ago!
     
    I had my interview appointment this morning. I was allowed in the building 15 minutes prior to my interview time. After the security check, I was checked-in at the reception over an iPad. I was instructed to go to a room where an IO was waiting for me over another iPad. They took about 10 minutes to review my file and we proceeded straight to the civics test part of the interview;
     
    - what was one important thing that Abraham Lincoln did?
    - name your US representative. (The IO didn't know the person I named so they had to look it up haha)
    - the House of Representatives has how many voting members?
    - what is the capital of the United States?
    - in what month do we vote for President?
    - what ocean is on the West Coast?
    Lost connection on the iPad twice during this test, gahhhh!
     
    Reading - what day is Columbus Day?
    Writing - Columbus Day is in October.
     
    The IO then reviewed my application and some of my responses on my n400 form. We then went over the qualifying yes/no questions.
     
    Any forms that they needed me to sign as well as the form for the writing test were sent over to the printer in my interview room by the IO. I would sign the form, hold it up at the camera so they could take a screen shot of my response and at the end of the interview all those documents went into a shred bin.
     
    At the end of the interview, they told me I was approved, sent me a notice over the printer that reflected my approval, informed me that I will be taking my oath after the interview. I then took my oath with 4 other appliancants in the ceremony room. Also received an envelope with a few forms - passport application, voter registration, letter from the president, a cute little American flag, and naturally my certificate of naturalization. Make sure everything on this certificate is correct before you leave the USCIS office because fixing any mistakes that you notice after you leave will cost you $500.
     
    The interview lasted about 25 minutes, would have been quicker if it wasn't for the connectivity issues. The process leading up to the oath and the oath took about 15. I was done in under an hour and 15 minutes or so. They had the usual COVID restrictions in place; face mask, social distancing. No cellphones are allowed in the building and you take your mask off during the interview. All in all everything went smoothly, 10/10 won't do this again now that I'm done lol! 
     
    And that is all folks. I wish y'all all the very best with your interviews!

    I filed online on Tuesday night and never received any status update email notifications. Checked my account this morning and it says the case was accepted on the 6th and an estimated completion time for my case is December 2020 (7 months). 
     
    I applied based on the 5+ years residence rule and it was so nice to not gather tons of documents this time lol

    Hello.

    Case number starts with SRC. Not seeing any approvals from that service center. Our case hasn't budged in months.

    Congrats to all those approved and good luck with your naturalization process!
