Filled paper N-400 in April, receipt number starts with IOE.

No movement on USCIS website after that.

I know things are a bit slower now but how long before I hear anything? I am in California FWIW.

I also paper filled mine and sent it to chicago. But i also got an ioe which is usually an electronic receipt. I found it weird. But it seems to make things smoother. My documents were all sent to my local uscis field office from the national benefits center where they process all n400 applications like super right away within a day. So that makes it cooler. Anyway i filled last sept. Became a citizen yesterday. Hehehe. Also california (but i expedited mine).

Since you seem to like to take the time and energy to respond in questionable manners,  just for your info: the proper way to be unhelpful would have been to ask "what WOULD you like to hear?".

How did you expedite your application (i didnt know that was an option)

 

Thanks so much! I appreciate it. Sorry for the late reply.. i've just been so busy with the move.

 

The uscis has lots of different provisions that have different situations in their handbook. I found out about mine by going through this visa journey forum while i was waiting for my k1 and aos before. and then one of those provisions finally applied to me.

 

So i filled mine under ina 319 (b) its for working abroad or always being abroad for qualifiying work for more than a year. Its both for civilians and military. Mostly military people do it when they have to be stationed abroad. And the few civilians i know are working for the us government but are being assigned abroad. And my husband and i are gonna be stationed abroad in japan for 3 yrs. So that's how i got to skip the roc and do the n400 sooner. 

 

Then i called to expedite my case because i am moving soon. I'm in the middle of my move but fly out in 1st week of december. So i still need time to apply for passport and all. The movers just got all our things yesterday. So its been a busy week. 

 

Anyway for expediting any case you filed already with the uscis.. all you got to do is call the uscis hotline. They have different reasons for expediting its on their website and its by case to case basis and my reason was cause of military orders and moving like right now/soonish. And that's a common expedite of a lot of military. But others file under financial harship or medical reasons. There's a whole list of them but those 2 are what i commonly come accross for approved expedited cases apart from the military one or work abroad.

Uscis processing time table currently says 13.5-17.5 months processing for N400 at SF, 12-24 months at San Jose.
