Time frame of citizenship

[mrbravod 4]

Good morning! I have a question about time frame of having the naturalization on hand if I send my form N400 this 15 March: Do I have any chance to have all done until the end of October? I may need to travel outside in November.

many thanks!

Depending on your office location and specific case. Some offices are busier than others and scheduling oath more often as well.

Depends on where you live, but that's not an unreasonable time frame. You may be done by November, or not. You can travel after you file your N400. If interview or oath ceremony times conflict with your travel plans, i advise you to change the latter, but you can ask for your USCIS appointments to be rescheduled.

Thank you, I think my field Office will be Texas, I don't understand well if it is convenient to send it to the lockbox or not, what is the difference between the two addresses?

tks!

You have to send it to the lockbox, you don't have any other choice.

- if you will send the application using usps, then send it to

USCIS

P.O. Box 660060

Dallas, TX 75266

- If you will send the application using ups/fedex then send it to

USCIS

Attn: N-400

2501 S State Hwy 121 Business

Suite 400

Lewisville, TX 75067

There's no such thing as a Texas field office. Everyone in the country sends their applications to the processing centers in Texas, Arizona, or Nebraska. After that your application will be sent to your local field office and that is where you'll be interviewed. If you live in Dallas your field office is. If you live in San Francisco in your field office is San Francisco. If you live anywhere in the states of Georgia or Alabama, your field office is Atlanta.

What determines which of the two addresses you send your application to is whether you're using a courier service such as UPS or FedEx, or if you're using the US Postal Service.

Look at processing times for your relevant field office in the various monthly filing threads. This will give you an idea.
