  1. That sound like one very unprofessional officer. I'm very sorry you had to deal with it! My guess is that the other person in line set her off but I'm sure they deal with it on a regular basis, and it shouldn't be used as an excuse to use someone as a punch bag. Especially in such unequal power dynamics. Regardless of the <deleted> experience, congratulations for making it through!
  2. I had my oath on November 15th. Passport application submitted on November 17th. Received my passport yesterday December 7th. I didn't pay for expedited processing, and I was told the wait would be 7-10 weeks. It ended up being much faster than that.
  3. I had my interview on October 25th, and I was given a "Decision can't be made" result even though an officer started my interview with going through I-751. There were no issues either, just them needing more time to review all my paperwork. It's very annoying but unfortunately it's common and the wait time differs depending on your local office and even depending on an officer. My status changed to approved/oath scheduled a week later. At the same time, I know a few other folks who passed I-751 + N-400 interviews at my local office, and they waited for 2,5 weeks and 4 weeks till status change. I think you'll hear from them within a month.
  4. Done with my oath. Sayonara USCIS 👋 Btw, laptops were allowed in the building. You'd just need to take them out at the security check.
  5. Got it! not going to risk it then @OldUser @Pbl It's just going to be me so I'll just take a book.
  6. Does anyone know if laptops are allowed to oath ceremony? My oath is tomorrow, and I would like to work from a nearby coffee shop before I go in. Downtown SF is crazy these days and feels like a military base because of APEC, Biden and Xi are meeting tomorrow around the time of my oath 😅 So I want to make sure I make it there in advance but it's not my day off so I still need to do some work. Obviously, it's not end of the world if I can't, but just wondering.
  7. Same. I don't know if it helped but I saw multiple cases here (mine included) that if you uploaded that letter then they schedule interview for both cases and status changes on both cases, too. Sometimes nothing changes for I-751 when they schedule your N-400 interview, so I think uploading this letter helps to speed things up, even in terms of having your I-751 relocate to your local office before the interview and not having to wait till they request it after passing it.
  8. Was it transferred right after you filed N-400 or recently? If it was transferred recently then it's a good sign. They can't cancel a case without making a decision on it so they will either approve it before you N-400 interview (it happens sometimes) or like @Crazy Cat was saying you'll have a combo interview. I had a combo interview as well. Also, do you have a 48 months extension letter?
  9. I also had to wait for a while to be able to file a complaint about I-751 taking forever to process but they scheduled my N-400 + I-751 interview on the first day of when I could file this complaint. I don't know if it was a coincidence. I just checked your timeline and I see that you filed I-751 a few weeks after I did. If they didn't change the processing times in the last 2 months you should be able to send a complaint regarding that one. You can also call and ask which office currently has your I-751. If it's already in San Jose then they might schedule you very soon.
  10. That's a good idea regarding a larger book and a card! I'm so used to having my current passport stamped all over that getting a thin book is kinda scary 😅
  11. They approved my I-751 6 hours later. Phew!
  12. @OldUser @Crazy Cat Thank you, guys! I still can't believe it's almost over. I got so used to my bureaucratic abuser at this point, but I won't miss them! 😆
  13. My Oath was scheduled for November 15th. Finally! The only thing is that the status on I-751 didn't change from "Interview was cancelled". Is it normal for them to schedule oath without approving the green card first?
  14. I just checked that official processing time for N-400 at San Jose is at 7 months. Can you see if you can file a complaint about case being outside normal processing times at this point? I know how excruciatingly frustrating this wait is. Really hope they schedule you soon!
  15. I have some movement on my cases. It's been a week since my combo interview. I-751 status changed to "Interview Cancelled And Notice Ordered", and N-400 changed to "Oath Ceremony Will Be Scheduled".
