Let's say my original PR card expired on 3/31/2023 and I filed I-751 within 90 days of this, and then N-400 within 90 days of 3/31/2024.

 

Does USCIS schedule interviews before 3/31/2024 or wait until I am a conditional PR for exactly 3 years to schedule an interview for the N-400?

Basically trying to determine if there's any chance of interview until March or not.

I believe the law states you cannot take the oath prior to the full 3 years.  I have read that interviews can take place prior to 3 years.

Submitted N-400 by mail on 2/15/2024; got notice today application was accepted.

 

Things here got complicated and pulled my bootstraps up and changed my course and got off the crazy train! Putting it out here in case somebody else needs to see the paper trail to shift the process. Basically, filed I-751 jointly with U.S. citizen husband (at the time) to remove conditions. Ended up requesting an amendment to the jointly filed I-751 on 9/13/2023 as I was finally able to leave a domestic violence relationship with support. Requested that the jointly filed I-751 be amended to a waiver petition based on battery and extreme cruelty by spouse, and noted was divorced by then as well. Provided supporting documents such as police reports, Personal Protection Order, letters verifying staying at a safe house and crisis intervention, divorce documents (divorced July 2023), medical reports outlining injuries, and supporting affidavits.

 

Citizenship can be granted within 3 years if the waiver petition is approved. Fingers crossed!
