Has anyone who filed in july had any change in their case?
I sent mine july, 28th and they have't even cashed my money order yet... wacko.gif
I am not too concerned yet considering I assume they had been flooded with application because of the new fees, so my envelope is still in a stack probably. crying.gif

Hi, I sent my N400 last July 9th to Vermont and I got my first NOA for $400 after a month but until now no Biometric appointment yet. Maybe you're right they are flooded with applications right now. good.gif

we are in the same boat. I sent my application to VSC on july 27, they received on July 28th. Up to now, check not cashed yet. wish everything will get better.
churipu
Thanks for the replies guys...they confirmed to me that UNFORTUNATELY I am not the only one...well, hopefully things will move along soon for all of us...
Good luck!

Good Luck !!!

I'm another in the same situation. N400 sent 26 July (they signed for it 30 July). Cheque still not cashed.

At least, thanks to Visa Journey, we know that we don't need to worry that our applications got lost, because others are in the same boat.

Thanks VJ!

We should use this thread as un update for all july filers, what do you all think? There isn't much posting in the US citizenship section and to find timelines is really hard...

Best to you all.

I've just checked my on-line bank account - nope - not cashed yet.

Surely they'll get around to us next week - fingers crossed for us all. blush.gif

I found this link on one of the other VJ sections. The info relates to N400s also though, for each service centre.

USCIS is supposed to be issuing weekly updates, but so far there doesn't seem to be anything for week of 24 August. This link is to the 17 August update.

For Texas Service Centre they report that they have entered data from N400s received up to 12 July,

Nebraska 24 July,

Vermont 11 July,

California 22 July.

We sent our package on July 28th. Checked the bank account today, and found that the check had been cashed (for the old, lower fee) on August 20th. Still no NOA, but at least I know they're not sending the package back, and I know that someone has touched it.

Good for you! kicking.gif I am sure you'll get your NOA soon enough. I mailed my N-400 the same day you did, they got it on the 30th and I just checked a sec ago....they still have NOT cashed my money! mad.gif
And I am glad to see their "official" updates when it comes to processing times are almost always BS... wacko.gif

Hi, I just got my Notice for Fingerprinting in Hackensack, NJ on 9/25. Does anybody have experience on this place?

Latest update from USCIS for week ending 31 August. Texas Service Centre for N400s hasn't moved at all, and considering that between the previous 2 weeks there was a 2 day weekend (12-15 July), they have moved on only one day in 3 weeks! crying.gif

So Vermont is on july 22nd....a few more days for them to go for me. dry.gif

I just wonder why they cashed Sherlock's check...you must have been one of the lucky ones who get their package accidentaly put on top of the stack! laughing.gif

Hopefully this week will bring some news for some of us. wink.gif

Hey congrats, that's some progress!! I deal with Baltimore so unfortunately I can't help with the office you're going to...I am sure it will be fine though, fingerprints are usually the easy part, I never had any problems or long waits either.
Good luck!

I wish this was one of those cases when "no news is good news".... wacko.gif
My money order has still not been cashed...I assume no one else has news?

Nothing for me yet - I've just checked my bank account on-line.

There's the 7 September update posted on the August Filers thread. Texas has moved on one whole day, to 16 July. Whoop-de-doo!
If they move only a day a week from now on, it'll be another 4 months before they even open my packet!

I blink.gif hope someone else gets better news soon.
churipu
AHA Vermont hasn't moved one single day...they're still stuck on july, 22nd.... blink.gif helpsmilie.gif wacko.gif

I got fed up and called the misinformation line today. The woman I talked to was obviously reading from a prepared script, and said that due to the backlog of N-400 applications that it is currently taking up to 90 days to get reciepts out.

Just FYI

Javi1984
I think this is the wrong thread to ask about EAD, I doubt that anyone here will be able to help. You could copy your question into the thread called something like "Working and Travelling before Green Card" from the list. People there might be able to help.

From your timeline though it looks as though your case is being dealt with - the RFE slowed it down, but it's still moving along.

Good luck.

Well.. I finally got my NOA and Bio appointment last Friday smile.gif I'm excited. Almost half way through the process. I'll keep you all updated.

Hi..
I just did my biometrics on September 25 and is now waiting for my interview. It does seem that if you live in vermont it goes by a little faster for you because there isn't that many people in this area well after they receive your application and send it to the local office. When I went to the office there was 4 people waiting with me to do the same thing so I am hoping things will speed up eventually.


Good luck everyone!! smile.gif

Still waiting for my NOA....
Anyways...
I just got the USCIS newsletter about the New Naturalization Test, I thought I'd post the link for everyone to see.
I can't wait to see some good news posted in this thread, good luck to all of us!

Thanks Churipu - I've just been reading about that in Huffington Post. There are some interesting and amusing comments from readers below it. The original article from the New York Times can be reached, I think, by clicking on the Huff-Po article's title.

We sent the N-400 in about July 13th, the check cleared about August 10th, we got the notice around September 14th and we just got the Biometrics schedule last week. (Appointment for the 19th of October.) good.gif
LovelyTena
Well.. I went and got my fingerprinting done last Wednesday. It was a quick process. They gave me the study guide with the CD smile.gif For those of you who filed in July, did you already get your interview letter??? Anyone has information on how long this process may take before I get to go take the test?

Good luck to all of us who is waiting... We're almost there smile.gif
