Yes!

okay ? , i was interviewed on march 1 and have been sitting in the queue ever since than. spoke to a couple of IO after 90 days period.what is your status ?

[spring333 44]

I had interview in April and ended up with RFE. Sent paperwork in May.

They have 120 days by law to respond. not sure if 120 working or calendar days tho.

i see, are you from chicago itself or the cities around ? because we might be scheduled (in case of judicial)anywhere from Rock ford, Peoria, springfield, Urbana or chicago itself. i am in Peoria btw

I live in suburbs and at this point i dont care if they schedule my ceremony in Alaska, i would go just to finish this nightmare.

How did you apply, based on what and what happened at the end of your interview?

I've been looking for a calendar like the one Houston has, but there isn't one for Chicago apparently.

you are right.Counties that falls under the Chicago field office comes under several district courts in a case of judicial ceremony. like i mentioned above. Chicago in particular falls under northern district of IL whose official web do not mention the Calendar. if you look at central district of IL web. they have a whole list of ceremonies coming up for 2016. The central district covers Peoria, Rock island, Springfield and Urbana. i am in Peoria, falling under Chicago field office and expecting to be naturalized in any of these towns.

Thanks. i can now dial the uscis phone, pick the right prompts and put in my receipt number all blindfolded. not worried just wanna get done with them as my case is out of normal processing time and as far as i know these infopases are a waste of time.

I think we are going to wait and wait...

I had ROC interview last year (which was unusual as well) and we were told to expect decision within 90 days. Guess what - got decision in 8 months!
