Hi folks,

I'm in a bit of an odd situation here. I applied for I751 ROC way back in 2018, and while waiting I applied for citizenship in April 2020. In early April of this year (2021), I had my interview for my N400 at which they also approved my I751 (and sent me an approval letter saying I wouldn't get a Green Card because I'd be taking the oath and becoming a citizen soon), and I became a US citizen on April 28th and was sworn in by none other than Secretary Mayorkas. I've spent the last few months doing US citizen things: getting an enhanced drivers license, applying for a passport, registering to vote, voting, and just in general not thinking about USCIS. Fast forward to last week, I got an eNotification that my I751 had an interview scheduled, and on Friday I received a letter saying I had to appear for an I751 interview on July 24. This strikes me as a clerical error on the part of USCIS, since both cases were approved before and, having taken the oath, I am a citizen. I have already called the contact center and am waiting for a Tier 2 officer to call me back. I figure in a worst case scenario I'll take the approval letter and a copy of my naturalization certificate (naturally I just applied for a passport a couple of days before the notification, so no guarantee they'll have my citizenship evidence back by then) to my interview and they'll sort it out on site. Has this happened to anyone before? If so, how did you resolve it? Any other advice?

Thanks!
