Huh? Wrong. We filed the N-400 in 2023. On 1-4-2023 to be exact. You need to look at our timeline more carefully. We filed right at the tail end of the pandemic so it should be moving even faster now than it did then. Of course, there are a lot of different variables that could effect the process (country of origin, provided documents, how well you do your due diligence, etc.).

We're Houston based. Take a look at our timeline. From the time that we filed my wife's N400 to when she did the oath ceremony it took just over 4 months. It took only 3.5 months to get an interview from the point that we submitted the N400.

Just to add our recent personal experience. My wife received her new and first US passport about 3 months ago and we figured we would update her global entry information to include her new passport since her global entry was tied to her permanent residence on our return from our next international trip. Fast forward to now after having done 2 overseas trips, one to Romania and another to Thailand. Wanted to see what would happen when we got back and went thru Global Entry. Return from Romania, nothing, she went right thru no questions asked. Just got back from Thailand this past Sunday and same thing, no questions. We didn't bring the subject up either so..... We came into Houston both times where they use facial recognition for GE.

I just can't help but chuckle how all of the sudden it's crickets......if you get my drift. Anyhow, great news, good luck at the interview!

It took exactly 6 weeks and a day from the time we handed the application in at the post office to the time we received my wife's passport in the mail. (Expedited Service) 5/15 - Submitted to USPS with expedited service. 5/19 - Application status shows as "In Process". Check was also processed around the same date. 6/23 - Application status shows as "Approved" 6/27 - Received passport in the mail 7/21 - Received the original certificate of naturalization back in the mail
