Hi guys. I’d my citizenship interview on 7/21/22 and I passed and was approved on the spot. The offer gave me form-N445 which includes time and location for my oath ceremony which is 9/21/22. My concern is when I check online, it still shows I’m in line for oath ceremony and we will send you a notice for receipt with date, time and location of your oath ceremony. 
Should I be worried or are they still going to update it? I barely have less than 2weeks for my oath ceremony. Thanks

Just wait to see if anything pops up on your online portal but keep the slot that IO gave you. 

 

Personally, they mailed the notice to me. I'm not sure how your IO determined the specific date and time for you. 

 

Regardless, this isn't anything to give you sleepless nights 

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

It won’t surprise me if they never update it, even decades after you get your naturalization certificate 

 

You’ve been working with USCIS for at least 4 years most likely.  In your experience has USCIS’s information technology processes worked well?

I can’t imagine those I applied before them and even had my interview are all getting dates and some done already. Wow. 

Each person has a unique immigration history. Another factor is FO workload. There are several variables that contribute to quicker or slower movement. At the same time, I can also understand your frustration and wish you a quick movement on your case.

FWIW my AOS status was showing 'Case is Under Review' (or whatever the wording is) for YEARS after my successful interview and after I had already received my GC  😅

 

Online system is so unreliable and flawed, I wouldn't spend a second thinking about it.
