Yes please let me know what they say and if I call I'll do the same. From discussions on here it seems like they're just trying to spread out the work load.

Yup they are simply spreading the work load. Officer I spoke to advise I go and not wait for a Seattle appointment. Portland see you on May 26!

Finally interview scheduled! 3 weeks later than expected in the excel sheet. Even 5 weeks later than my own expectation. All interviews have 1 months notice as we have seen here, my notice is 6 weeks

So, here was my experience today.    My appointment was at 1.50 pm and the letter states you must not arrive more than 15 minutes before this time due to COVID and capacity levels in the buildi

I had my N-400 interview this morning and the officer who did my interview also conducted a one-on-one oath ceremony. I received my Naturalization certificate within 20 minutes and was on my way. Good

I believe you are not alone , there are others in late dec and early jan who are waiting for updates. Mine is 01/03 and it has been stuck in maintenance for last few days - "Your N-400 personalized processing time is down for maintenance. Check the estimated case processing times for your field office or service center."

 

Is everyone seeing down for maintenance message or this is a sign for interview date is close?

 

Just so you know I saw that starting last Friday and today I got my interview notice. It it still showing "Your N-400 personalized processing time is down for maintenance. Check the estimated case processing times for your field office or service center." At this point it doesn't matter I have my interview notice.

I have my interview on 05/11/21, and scheduled USPS Passport Appointment for day after. 

 

looking for ways to make it faster than 4-6 weeks.  

 

Do you have any tips\ideas how should I expedite the passport process? 

 

 

You can expedite the passport, it will take 4-6 weeks. Make sure you pay for express shipping both ways. Do you have travel plans? If so and you have an air ticket, I heard you can contact a representative with proof of your air ticket and they will expedite it more after you apply. Can you please keep us updated if you went that rout? I hope I will be doing this and wish to hear other people experience.

@AlienLife and kamus, you guys watch for where your interview location. You got early notices, and be sure to make sure that it is in Seattle. 

Thanks for the heads up MGMA. My interview location is the good old Tukwila office. I live north of Seattle so probably USCIS is nice enough not to make me drive to Portland or Yakima.

Sounds like they might be following the 2019 pattern. Those south of Seattle sent to Portland. Eastside people (Bellevue, Kirkland, etc) sent to Yakima. Everyone else stayed with Tukwila.

I-130 filed: February 5, 2016

NOA1: February 8, 2016 Nebraska

NOA2: July 21, 2016

POE: December 19, 2016 Las Vegas

N-400 filed: September 30, 2019

Interview: March 22, 2021 Seattle

Now a US citizen!

Well I’m in Renton/Tukwila and got sent to Portland 😩. I just hope since we are being sent from Seattle they allow for same day oath.

Congratulations! You filed 2/25/2020 right?

 

Maybe distributing the case workload between ASCs is reducing the wait time for some of us.

 

 

Happy to see things are moving for everyone, but also curious about what scheduling criteria is being used as we see folks from Feb being scheduled. Folks who are getting interviews from Feb, did you file exactly at 5 years or bit later?

Some of my friends went to Portland and Yakima couple years ago and they were not offered oath the same day.

Ha! I was eligible to file in 2011 but foolishly waited over 8 years for no good reason. Now I am sitting here with an expired green card hoping this process to be complete as soon as possible.
