Nope nothing pending.
I got my 10 years permanent resident card in 2019. (got the first (conditional) green card in 2015, submitted renewal in 2017 Nov and it took a year and a half)

So it's been 8 years since I became a permanent resident. 


My field office is Nashville. I live 20 mins away from the field office. I went to that office for the green card.

Finally! As of yesterday my status was changed to "interview was scheduled". 

I didn't get the notice yet so I don't know when it is, but I'm so happy that it's moving!!

Had my interview today at the Baltimore FO. Brought my wife along because we were told it would be a Combo interview for the I-751 too, but the agent informed me that she didn’t need to come in at all, so that was a surprise!

 

interview lasted about 15 minutes, civics questions were fine, as were the English portion of the test and the Yes/No questions. She quickly went through my I-751 application with me and that was it then. At the end she told me that a decision couldn’t be made right there due to the I-751 application, but I expected that.

 

What I didn’t expect was to see an update on my USCIS account once I got home a couple of hours later stating that my application had been recommended for approval and that my Oath Ceremony will be scheduled! Quite a relief! So, now I just have to wait for that to be scheduled and I’ll finally be done with the USCIS for good!
