SnjvSea got a reaction from aikkkoo in N-400 Seattle (Part 2)
So, my interview was on 5/20 afternoon. Biometrics could not be approved before cut off time , hence I was told that Oath ceremony will be scheduled at a later date.
I got the notice today that the ceremony will be held on 6/24.
While these timelines can vary, ballpark safe to assume that the oath ceremony, if not done on the same day, will take a little more than a month after interview.
Good luck to all

Oath Ceremony - done.
Applied : 12/2020
Interview : May 2022
The increase in the number of people being processed per day is visible at the Tukwila center. There was a 20 minute traffic jam to get into the parking lot. Significantly high number of people took oath today. Later applied for passport
Tip for passport: Ideally have a USPS Post appointment near your home. If for some reason, that hasn't happened, any of the Seattle Customer Service Centers take walk ins for accepting applications. I had called earlier to seek an appointment and they said they don't do appointments at all.

Interview Update : My wife and I did our interviews today. Some information that might be useful for the forum here
We both applied on same date and did our biometrics on same date/time as well. The interviews were scheduled on same date but different times. Hers was in the morning & mine in the afternoon. The process for interview is defined by many here and is accurate. 1 hr tops in & out
1. If you are approved in the morning, you will get the oath ceremony scheduled in the afternoon same day
2. Two ceremonies, one at 2.30 pm & another at 4.00 pm, batch size of 30
3. If your interview/approval extends beyond 2 pm, you will not get oath on the day. Oath ceremony notice will be mailed to you
4. If your biometrics were taken 15 months prior, they "expire". (As was the case with us) So the interviewer has to re-submit the same for re-approval. typically takes 30 to 40 minutes. You can wait and get the interview scheduled the same day. as my wife did and got her oath scheduled for afternoon
5. My interview ended at around 1.45 but the biometrics re-approval did not happen till the cut off time of 2 pm. So, I did not get oath scheduled for same day.
6. If you are interviewed in the morning and were approved, you will be asked to come back at 2.30 or 4 pm ceremony
7. Family and kids are ALLOWED for the oath ceremony (Not for the interview)
Fairly smooth & professional experience.
Good Luck to all

Received Interview notification today. Have been following the thread and spreadsheet for sometime now. I think both are very useful to track likely timeframes. The spreadsheet, specially, is very indicative of when one is likely to get the interview notice.
