I just got a stamp on my passport at the Federal Plaza office in NYC. I arrived at 12:20 for a 12:30 appt. I was seen at around 1:20. Then the officer told me to wait on the side. She printed a ton of papers and typed a lot on her computer. Then she took all the papers and put them inside my passport and took all of it to the back. She came back with my stamped passport and told me I'd be receiving a letter in the mail with the decision before the stamp expires. So I guess that means I'll hear something before January, 2018. Reassuring, I guess lol
I am just wondering what all the paperwork she printed was, since it was a lot of pages. I usually read the passport stamp appts are quick but mine wasn't.
That sounds pretty much like my stamp appointment at Manchester NH. I had to wait to one side too till the right official was free. He asked me a couple of questions, typed a lot, then went away taking my passport and green card with him. I waited a couple more minutes, then he came back with the passport stamped and no green card. He said the same thing about waiting for the new card in the mail.
I wouldn't worry about the papers: I get the impression that the folks who work at USCIS have to file paperwork just to use the restroom, let alone stamp a passport!

The list got really messy looking so I fixed it.
Hi, sio05, thanks for tidying this up. Could you repost the new list removed from its "quote" box? I want to update my details on the most recent version but when I reply to your message it only gives me what you see here. It won't quote the list so I can edit it.
Thanks!

NotLarry, from what I understand, submitting the N-400 petition before the ROC is approved will "force" them to adjudicate the ROC and the N-400 simultaneously. So, there will be no need to resubmit the N-400 after the ROC is approved. (I don't know if they even issue 10-year cards in these cases...) maybe someone else here knows more about this?
Thanks ToRo, this is a tough call then. Given the updates on here and the USCIS processing times, I assume the VSC should start working my ROC (NOA date 2/12/16) any day now. While I want to get the citizenship show on the road asap, I'd also really like a valid Green Card to carry in my wallet for the 8 months or so the naturalization process will take. I live within 100 miles of the border so can be stopped anytime by CBP and asked to prove my immigration status. That means carrying my passport with the I-551 stamp everywhere. Back when I was on a non-immigrant visa and had no other form of ID, I also used to bring my passport everywhere and it got damaged from spending too much time in my jeans pocket. Dealing with two national immigration bureaucracies at once is not something I want to do again!
I guess I'll wait another couple of weeks on the N-400 to see if there's any movement on the ROC application. Fingers crossed the VSC starts processing some of us Feb. 16 filers soon!

The N-400 form only requires tax returns and a copy of the marriage certificate. However, since my ROC will still likely be pending, I'm going to include additional evidence, like bank statements and letter from apartment management company.
I'm eligible to apply for naturalization too. So I called USCIS customer service to ask if I can apply and they said you can't be approved for citizenship until the ROC goes through. I don't think that would be a problem timewise (knock on wood!) but how do you update your N-400 application once you get the 10-yr Green Card? The folks from customer service didn't have helpful answer to that question!
