N-400 White House Help

 Share

Hi All

 

I just wanted to share a recent experience I had regarding my N-400 interview.

 

As everyone knows there is a backlog of applications and seemingly endless waiting for an interview date. I applied more than 6 months (June 13, 2017) before my GC expires and was getting worried about getting naturalized before the expiration date, so on January 12th 2018, I emailed the White House explaining my situation, possible job, driving license and home ownership concerns.

 

I got an immediate reply and thought that was probably all I would hear from Mr Trump. To my surprise I got an update on Feb 16 advising my that my case had been forwarded to The appropriate Federal Agency for further action. I then got an email from the USCIS customer assistance Unit. Acknowledging receipt and advising the matter would be investigated per Robert Genesoni ( Chief of customer engagement center).

 

As it happens, I had already got my date in March, notified Feb 7,  but I was very impressed that my email had been forwarded by the White House and that action was being taken.

 

I don't know if the fact that there was a White House inquiry helped speed the process up but I am very satisfied that I was not just ignored.

 

Good luck to all still awaiting interview dates.

and if you get the chance to sit it out or dance.......

I HOPE YOU DANCE
