not bad

they just will review your file to see your divorce papers 

length of time in US

your criminal report while in US

to see if divorce was because of domestic violence on your part

How long it will take to get the response from them

I filed under 3-year rule and got the same. You should see a decision in about 2-3 weeks.

Hi, I am wondering if you filed N400 via married with US citizen 3 years rule?

If yes, could you tell me how you filled  "Time Outside the Unite States within 5 years" since we only living here for 3 year

 

Thanks so much

Time outside the US is for after your initial arrival as in a vacation

put the date you left the US and date you retuned (count the days gone from  US soil)

can take as long as immigraiton sees fit to research your background

seeing that you are from Morocco,  it will take longer than the person from Hungary

we can't really say how long immigraiton will take / you should realize this from going thru this process to get the visa

[barcaizk 4]

I have been live in the usa for 5 years

 

I only went to morocc 4 times 

The total month in the whole 5 years is

7 month is that good or not

I filed on paper (no online option back then) and crossed out the "5" and written 3 there. I haven't left the US between getting my GC & citizenship.

Background checks are already done by the time you go to the interview. Country of citizenship does not matter at that point. How busy your local office is does matter, though.

True but one Australian was 17 months (he posted on here)

and in those cases

The FBI name check must be completed and cleared before an applicant for naturalization is scheduled for his or her naturalization interview. A definitive FBI name check response of “NR” (No Record) or “PR” (Positive Response) is valid for the duration of the application for which they were conducted. Definitive responses used to support other applications are valid for 15 months from the FBI process date. A new name check is required in cases where the final adjudication and naturalization have not occurred within that timeframe or the name check was processed incorrectly

 

so there are cases that require an additional screening

Well the fact that he was Australian kind of undermines your original argument! That should be less problematic than even Hungary, never mind Morocco. 

Clearly something very specific to his case.

Divorces USC and married locally, may be relevant.

I had my interview in sept and decision not made and still waiting. There were two names in my file.  The officer said they messed up my name during biometrics which created a second identity.  They have 120 days ...
