Hi Wichita

In answer to your question, I received the following the letter, exactly worded as follows:

(after I submitted my N-400 Application on September 9, 2009)

Receipt (Notice of Action)

Notice Date: September 15, 2009

Case Title: N-400 Application for Naturalizaton

USCIS A#: AXXXXXXXXX

Application Number: NBC*XXXXXXXXX

Received Date: September 11, 2009

Priority Date: September 15, 2009

Applicant Name and Mailing address: (My First and Last Name and Mailing Address)

Payment Information:

Single Application Fee: $595.00

The above application has been received by our office and is in process. Our records indicate your personal information is as follows:

Please verify your personal information listed above and immediately notify our office at the address or phone number listed below if there are any changes. Upon reciept of all required Record Checks, you will be scheduled to appear for an interview at your local USCIS field office.

(Further information about getting a copy of the study guide during biometrics...)

USCIS Office Address (National Benefits Center, Lee's Summit, MO....)

USCIS Custmber Service Number (aka. the "mis-information line").

By the way, I also checked online on the USCIS website with my reciept number (yes, it does work...), and got the following message:

On September 11, 2009, we received this N400 APPLICATION FOR NATURALIZATION, and mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case. Please follow any instructions on this notice. You will be notified by mail when a decision is made, or if the office needs something from you. If you move while this case is pending, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or contact our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283.

During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators.

If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131, I-130 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or biometrics taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule.

Hope this helps. Good luck with the rest of your immigration journey too.
