I'm sorry that's happened. Would you clarify: did you apply for the N400 in 2018 or 2019? You wrote 2019, but you later state waiting almost 18 months from April 2018.  

Applied  for N400 on April 26th 2019, had biometric May 16th, update for interview Nov 4, interview December 10. Got a call it’s been cancelled due to my file not getting to them yet.

My interview was scheduled and it is on February 10 in Baltimore. This was unexpectedly fast as I’m only at 5 month mark. I filed in August 2019, under 3 year rule. I will keep you posted.

Hi Pupa, I filed in the end of August 2019 as well, but I haven't received any updates yet. My online account still shows August 2020. When did you file last August?

Hey Skyline, Actually I filed on August 1 so you might hear something soon. It seems like Baltimore processing speed is improving. What account shows is an estimate (on a longer side) and may or may not be true according to the experiences posted here. I’m observing here folks are being scheduled in 5-7 month now.

@Godsfavor, any further information on your situation? Have they contacted you again or have you followed up to see if your file has arrived?

I am so excited for you! I hope mine will be scheduled soon. I am under 3 years rule as yours. Are you bringing a lot of supporting documents?

I will bring updated financial evidence along with copies of some evidence that I submitted with N-400, but I hope the IO will have the whole filing (I paper-filed) in front of him/her- that was the idea. So not a lot, but all relevant and updated.

is your I-751 still pending? When you say Baltimore did not receive your file, do you mean I-751 file from Vermont?

Hello everyone, I'm happy to report that my wife's interview was successfully completed yesterday! She said her interviewer as "absolutely lovely" and the whole thing took about 30 minutes, but only because his computer kept freezing with each input. She believes it was probably closer to 25 minutes actual interview time. He did her civics test first thing, as he knew that people stressed about it enough to not be able to focus on the application questions; so, he preferred to offer the relief of getting that over with as soon as possible. She received a letter indicating the recommendation of Approval and they sent her out to wait for scheduling her Oath Ceremony. We were incredibly fortunate to get an appointment for tomorrow morning!  ::knock wood:: We're just one step away from concluding this process.  The staff at the Baltimore Field Office were great and we told them so.
