Hi everyone, I am a March 2020 filer. I am wondering if anyone experienced the same situation as me. Does anyone have recommended for approval in interview still waiting for the status updated? Now it is 44 days after my interview.

I attended my interview on May 5, 2021, in LA. My field office is LA City, and my interview floor is 8th.  There is no update on my account. It still shows "Interview Was Scheduled." I do not receive the oath letter as well.

 

Please, anyone experienced the similar situation knows how long it might take to receive the updated information?

This has happened before, more common than you think. 44 days is still within the time they have to respond. They have up to 120 days before you can do much. 

 

Just keep checking your case, there should be an update soon. Good luck.

The immigration process caused me PTSD.

Thank you for the advice! I emailed USCIS through my account, and their response was  "USCIS systems indicate that you appeared for your naturalization interview on May 05, 2021. If final approval is granted, you will be notified of when and where to report for your naturalization ceremony." 

 

Although their system confirmed my attendance on the interview date, my account still shows "Interview was Scheduled." I just felt something wrong. 

 

My case is pretty simple, and the IO told me I will receive oath information within 9-10 days, but no letter and no update come.

The case status check online is not always accurate. I've seen people attended their Oath ceremony and their case status still shows as scheduled for interview.

 

There is not much you can do for now, just wait. You will hear from then soon.

Any updates on your case?

No, I do not have. Tomorrow will enter the week 9 waiting time. You see my case, and I do not think there is any difference between decisions A(recommended for approval) and B (decision cannot be made yet) unless you have oath information on the interview date. Any case can be pending. Whatever you are A or B. 

 

My USCIS status shows [Estimated time until case decision: approx. 10 months], and now I think it will be a long journey.

 

I will update if I have new. Also hope you hear your oath information soon.

did you try to do anything much? File a Writ maybe? 

I did everything I can do. I contacted the local office, senator, congressman, and Ombudsman; filed an online inquiry; wrote to the White House.

So my interview was Feb 2020, and it wasn't approved until July 2021.

 

I did the same as you (enquiries, senator, congressman, Ombudsman) with no result. Mine was just sat there until I filed an AR-11 after moving to a different state. They approved it the same day that they processed my AR-11. I've no idea what caused the delay, but maybe my file was gathering dust on someones desk, and sending the AR-11 seemed to force someone to look at my file.
