I had a combo interview a while back and got approved for I-751 recently (status switched to "card is being produced").
Does anyone have experience with and know how long after that you can get approved for N-400 and then timeline for oath ceremony??

any updates anyone?
anyone still waiting?
I am still waiting
- I-751 in 2/2017
- N-400 in 2/2018
- Combo Interview 2/2019
It has been 3 months since the interview and still no updates. Do you have any suggestions? Should I try to contact my local congressman?

Without knowing what exactly is your case. I would not suggest placing an pressure from reps to the USCIS. You may be opening a treacherous Pandora box if there were some compromising findings.
Ye that's my concern as well. Interview seemed to go well with no red flags so I don't want to give them a reason to be upset at this point. This hold-and-wait pattern is killing me.

@et19, what did they say at the end of your combo interview? As @corvusheart is asking as well, did they approve the ROC?
I agree with @Zombie69. Nothing to lose here by contacting your representatives.
No updates on the online case status checking site as well?
@Zombie69: think I will move forward with contacting reps. My only concern is it stirs the pot unnecessarily and upsets USCIS even more.
@MK108: both I-751 and N-400 are still pending. No updates on the egov tracker or dhs account page

It has been 2 months since my combo I-751 and N-400 interview with no update.
Do you think it's wise for me to contact my congressperson and senator to apply pressure? Or should I just keep waiting it out?

I agree with Zombie, there is not much you can do. When you left your interview did they give you anything related to recommended for approval related to the N400? For us it was a little over a month of nothing, then the I751 NOA approval showed up in the mail, then the N400 status was changed and oath was soon scheduled.
Good Luck!
I did get an "approval" letter for the English/civics portion of N400. However, decision couldn't be made because of pending I-751. For I-751, I got a notice of continuance. It's good to hear that you still got approved after a month of waiting. I am onto the 1.5 month of waiting now so I will try to wait another 2 months before I contact my congress person and seek other venues.

There is something called "mandumous" action you could take through federal court. If the applicant has an unreasonable delay, the applicant could petition a federal court to force USCIS to adjudicate your case, but you need a lawyer for that, and it will be an expensive endeavor. USCIS could always spin by defining what their normal "processing time" is which might make it difficult to deploy mandamous action. The best bet is probably just to wait to out with patience unfortunately.
Thank you so much @Zombie69 for your prompt responses.
- I thought "mandumous" is only applied to N400 and it has to be 120 days after the interview that you can file it. Is that true? I don't mind forking out some money to move this along as this is impairing with my work performance (too much stress and anxiety). Perhaps I should consult an attorney at this point (I remember she did tell me the 120 days piece). I am wondering if anyone tries (or should try) congressman / senator at this stage in my timeline: over 2 years for I-751 and over 1 year for N-400. You are right here; I should just try to stay calm and patient.
- My trick to get tier 1 officer is to not press any buttons and that lands me in a rotary phone tier 1 agent. Do you know of any better tricks :)

Just a quick update from my case:
- I filed for I-751 in 2/2017
- I filed for N-400 in 2/2018
- We had a combo interview last month
With that timeline, I have two questions:
- Since it has been a month without any updates, is there anything I can do to speed it along / status check?
- Does anyone know the steps to reach the tier 2 officer directly by calling in the standard 1 (800) 375-5283 number?

Hi,
I was able to submit an online inquiry with the timeline I had with no issues.
March 14, 2017 I751 was mailed
March 17, 2017 NOA1 Dated
March 22, 2017 NOA1 Received
April 21, 2017 Biometrics appointment
March 20, 2018 Received I551 stamp on passport valid for a year until March 19, 2019
June 27, 2018 Cased transferred to Nebraska field officeIf that wouldnt work for your case, others did suggest calling a Tier 2 agent. That may work too.
Thank you Prisma. Do you happen to remember what you put for the "Date Filed".
And just to confirm -- are you California or Nebraska?

Online via the egov.USCIS.gov/e-request website: submit a case inquiry -> Case outside normal processing time.
Since Nebraska inquiry time is still 2016, I am wondering how you were able to submit an inquiry for case outside normal processing time?
When i tried to do that for California, it flags me as case still within normal processing time.
N-400 and I-751 combo pending

Ah no, I had to wait for a few months after.
Curious how long it takes for N-400 to get approved after approved I-751
