How are you notified that you have an upcoming interview? Do you check your USCIS account or do you get a notification email?

I downloaded the Lawfully app, which periodically checks their servers for status updates, but sometimes I’ll also log into my USCIS account to check if there are any new updates.

I had been logging into my USCIS account to check for updates. I had also downloaded an app (not Lawfully) that monitors the status of your application but only ever received notifications for things like Visa Bulletins or system maintenance. The status has also changed there to show that my interview was scheduled, but I never did get a notification for it.

 

If you don't have an app and don't ever check your account, I guess you'd also just get a surprise letter in the mail someday!

You can also have your case number ready and check it directly without logging in your USCIS account using the website: https://egov.uscis.gov/

Congratulations dear!! I am happy for you! Did you apply within the 90-day window before your third anniversary as an LPR? Is your interview after that anniversary?

It's all an estimate anyways. It's pretty useless for majority of people because of huge inaccuracies.

Tried to get it in earlier this month but had a couple of work trips. Just submitted it tonight.

I love seeing fellow Brits on these forums!  Good luck!    I think the process went really fast for me and very smoothly.

 

(Looking at your timeline I see you took just as long as I did to apply for citizenship lol.  I got here Aug 2010!)

So I noticed in the letter that originals should be brought to the interview of copies were supplied. Some documents are "copies" by default (ie. car contract emailed to us digitally), while others were scanned and shredded (car registration cards). I'm thinking I'll pad with some other original documents for those car docs, as I still have the original renewal notices and a bunch of original car maintenance receipts. Do you guys think I submit these online ahead of time, or just bring them with me to the interview?

  Take it with you. I submitted the absolute minimum online.  Nothing more than they asked for. 

 

I took the originals they asked for as well as tax records just because everyone else seemed too. 

 

They didn't ask me for anything at all.

Will do, thanks! Everyone brings their tax returns as well, then? Can definitely print them out but that's a lot of paper, lol.

Hi everyone, I submitted my N400 application on January 14th, New York City office, filling under 90 days/3 year rule.

 

Jan 14th 2024: Case was received and a receipt notice was sent.

 

However, I didn't receive biometrics letter nor notification about it, I see some people immediately receive notification about it but I haven’t .
Hopefully it will be a smooth process!
