Yeah, mine is gone, too. I'm not too worried about it, though. Not sure how accurate it was, anyway.

Auguri!

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone! The last few days were rough, healthwise, but today is looking better. I have already received a new interview date—April 11th. So, I was right with my time frame estimate of 4-6 weeks, and I'm okay with it. It's nothing in the grand scheme of things. I was a little nervous about the rescheduling process, but in the end, it was super easy. I called the USCIS Contact Center number listed on my Interview letter less than 24 hours before my interview. I told them I was sick and needed to reschedule. They asked if this was my first time rescheduling, and once I confirmed, they said it shouldn't be a problem. They take note of your request to reschedule and forward it to the field office. I was told that if I didn't hear from them (the FO) within 72 hours, I should call the Contact Center and ask for an update. The following day, even before my original interview time, I already had a new interview date. I asked my doctor for a note and confirmation of my COVID diagnosis, just in case, but I wasn't asked to provide anything. I'll keep it on hand, just in case. So, just a small bump in the road, and as @BeautifulAmerica said, at least the weather should be warmer for the oath ceremony! 😃

So here’s something I didn’t see coming… My interview was scheduled for tomorrow morning, and I was looking forward to it. I started feeling under the weather on Sunday but didn’t worry too much about it. It got worse over the past two days, so I decided to get checked out today. Turns out it’s Covid! 🤬 I had to call USCIS to reschedule my appointment, and I'm frustrated! Shortly after, I got a confirmation email that my interview had been canceled and that I had been placed back in the scheduling queue. I wonder how long this is going to set me back. I'm guessing 4 to 6 weeks at least, if not more. Hope everyone else is having a better day!

Thanks! 11/03/23 - N-400 submitted online 12/03/23 - received biometric notice 12/20/23 - biometrics appointment 01/03/24 - received interview notice 02/21/24 - interview appointment So the actual appointment is outside of 3 months since filing.

Happy New Year everyone! I was just notified that my interview has been scheduled. Great way to start the new year!

Yup. Fingerprinting and picture. My visa interview was in April of 2020. I was previously in the country on a K-1 > CPR > PR. We moved to Europe in 2011, gave back my GC in 2016, and then moved back to the U.S. in 2020. The last time I did biometrics at an ASC before today must have been back in 2007 when I got my 10-year GC.

Had my biometrics appointment today. In and out in under 15 minutes. Great experience! Not sure about everyone else, but I came on an IR-1 via DCF. At the time of my interview in Frankfurt, the USCIS office there had already permanently closed, so the State Department did my biometrics and I haven't had any done since then. I would assume that has something to do with it. I expected that I would have to go get biometrics done at an ASC, so all good on my end.

No, I didn't have biometrics reused. I received notice exactly one month after I applied that I had been scheduled for a biometrics appointment. So, based on my case, I don't think you have anything to be worried about. I'm sure you'll receive a biometrics notice soon.

If you didn’t receive a notice that your biometrics will be reused, I assume they’ll schedule you for an appointment. That’s what happened to me. i received my biometrics appointment notification exactly 1 month after submitting the N-400 online. Good luck!

Received my biometrics appointment notification letter yesterday. I’m scheduled for biometrics on 12/20/23.

Good luck!

Good luck! Did she file online or by mail?

Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason you are going through an attorney? I know some cases can be very complex and may require a lawyer. For others, it's just peace of mind. Personally, I have not used one for any of my interactions with USCIS. I always figured all the information is available on the USCIS website, and for anything else, there's this forum, Reddit, and Google. 😄 With lawyers, it's just like with any other profession. Most are good at their jobs, fewer are excellent, and some are not worth the ink on their business cards. Generally, I agree with what others here have suggested. If it were me, I'd err on the side of caution and send it out a day after officially being eligible. What difference do a couple of days make in the grand scheme of things? Good luck with the process! We're all in the same boat.

At my visa interview 3.5 years ago.

Got my NOA right after applying. I didn't receive a biometrics letter, but I also didn't expect one, since I haven't provided biometrics in a while. Good luck with everything!

Did either of you file online?

Right here! November 3rd.
