NOA Date:  April 7th, 2017

 

Finger prints: scheduled for April 25th but I went early and did them on April 17th, 2017

 

In-line interview: April 27th, 2017

 

 If going by NOA date, the Chicago FO seems to be scheduling April now.  I added my timeline to the March filers thread initially but probably should have been in the April filers, perhaps.   Hope this helps!

I believe the date mentioned on I-797 form (NOA date) is the priority date and if I am correct, then Chicago FO has started processing N400 applications for April month :)

Thanks  @cupcake123  and  @agrzybianek for your replies :)

Good luck to all of you!

do you know if they are on beginning/mid/end of April? how do you know what month they are on? i'd love it if the processing times website was up to date :(

Going from @cupcake123 dates, it seems like they are doing early April applications. When my interview is scheduled, then we will know that they are doing late April applications.

On their website, it shows Chicago FO, as of September 30, is processing applications with Priority dates of up to January 26. It can be frustrating  that those processing times are not updated frequently, but we have this wonderful forum here that can inform us of what dates are being processed currently :)

It's a shame that they do not update their dates, it's been 3 months since it's been updated last :( oh yeah i guess when you do get scheduled we will know when it's end of April

Hi all,

 

I received my interview notice.  Notice was dated December 5th, and I received it this weekend.  My interview date is January 8th.  Hoping it doesn't get rescheduled as others have had this happen.

 

I'll update the March filers thread.

I got one more interview notice with a date 12/12. I have now two officially scheduled interviews one on 12/12 and another on 12/18. So I am going to the earliest one. USCIS stance: if you didn't receive a cancellation letter for any of your appointments you have to show up. I will go on 12/12 and ask them if they want to see me the second time. I doubt they do. 

Good luck tomorrow!

Good luck! when did you file if you don't mind me asking? also did you file by mail or online?

Thank you! I filed on 03/11, officially it got registered on 03/16. I had my interview today. It didn't go well. Basically, I was told that I didn't meet 3 year of marital union requirement. I filed 90 days in advance and I didn't leave with my husband at the same address prior to immigrating to the USA due to the nature of his occupation at the time (Peace Corps Volunteer). The lady said they would send a letter, but there is a great chance it will get denied and I will have to re-file. She said she wished I waited and filed later. So today was not my day at all :(

Oh no! I'm so sorry. That's horrible ! Why can't they just say this stuff to us when they get the application rather than dragging us through all of the torture!? 

 

What are you going to do? Attorney? Or just refile if they decline you? 

 

I really am sorry

That is indeed terrible. 

But ’tis a common proof
That lowliness is young ambition’s ladder,
Whereto the climber upward turns his face.
But when he once attains the upmost round,
He then unto the ladder turns his back,
Looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees
By which he did ascend.
