Hi guys! Just an update. I had my oath taking today. The ceremony took around 2 hours coz each applicant had to check their Naturalization certificate for any errors first, and there were around 97 of us. So glad that it's already over! The whole N400 application process took me around 7 months: -NOA: Oct 13, 2023 -Interview: April 18, 2024 -Oath taking: May 15, 2024 Chicago Field Office, applied under 3 year rule (married for 6 years already, no kids). Originally from the Philippines and came under an F1. Passport appointment on Friday! Thanks so much Visajourney community for being a great resource for the past years, from AOS to ROC and now Citizenship. Will be happy to pay it forward and answer anyone who has questions. I wish all of you the best of luck in your immigration journey and with whatever life brings! 🤗

Thank you! Good luck to us!! 🤗

Interview just got scheduled for 18 April 2024! Filed online on 13 Oct 2023 with the 3 year rule, Chicago Field Office. Time to study for the civics test. Good luck to everyone wherever you guys are on your N400 journey!

Me! My Receipt date is 13 Oct 2023, and I'm still at "actively reviewing your case." There's still a lot of us out here! 😭

I filed on 13 Oct 2023. I hope it's not coz I filed on Friday the 13th lol jk. Good luck to us! 😆

I hear you. I've seen posts of people file in December and already got interviews. I'm not in NYC, but from Chicago. I figured maybe bigger cities are busier and have more workload..?

UPDATE: Mine now says "taking longer than usual." You guys are right, it's not even remotely accurate. 😅 From now on I'll just check every couple of weeks. Filed Online on 13 Oct 2023, local office is Chicago, 3 year rule.

Mine went from 4 months to 1 day... I'm checking tomorrow and the suspense is killing me! 😬
