Hey Guys, 

 

So I filed for my citizenship last July, I had an update to say my case was transferred to another office (does this only happen to even out the workload?) - It says there is a 15 day wait time and also it says about 3 months to complete so what exactly does that mean?  What is next?  A letter with interview date or what happens next? 

 

Thanks, guys.

- Your case can get transferred if you move to a different district or to even out the load.

- I assume you have done your biometrics, if so, yes, the next stage is an interview. When depends on what specific office. E.g. SF has a wait time of ~ 12-13 months from application till interview. 

- The counters/wait times in the website are noisy and misleading.

I thought we we were talking about the counters you see when you login. 

 

Case in point, my oath ceremony is scheduled for June 12. The estimated time for completion of my case is August 2019.

 

I had roughly a month to study from the notice date till interview.

Depends on what your local service center is and whether they follow some cadence at which oath ceremonies are scheduled. E.g in the SF service center, oath ceremonies are scheduled every month roughly half way through the month, this means that if you were say doing your interview in SF on the 22nd of July, you could see yourself getting sworn in the middle of August. 

 

Note that there are places (e.g. NJ) where people get their oath done on day of interview. So you need to look into specifics for your service center.
