You should have gotten an automatic extension notice with N-400 submission.

Effective Dec. 12, 2022, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is updating the USCIS Policy Manual to allow USCIS to automatically extend the validity of Permanent Resident Cards (commonly called Green Cards) for lawful permanent residents who have applied for naturalization.

USCIS processing times for Tampa is about 7.5 months.  I would not file an I90 until right before your GC is going to expire since you filed the N400 in December.  Hopefully you will not need the I90 come August.

 

Good Luck!

Thank you @Dashinkainteresting that USCIS says 7.5 months, if you look at the Immigration timeline section here on VJ and you filter by Tampa. The first couple of pages of results most members had their app completed start to finish in 4.5 -  5 months. I also just had a friend who did her N-400 and had  the same timeline 4.5 Months from application submission to oath. I am crossing my fingers that my ends up being the same.

Just make sure you received your NOA for you N-400 and on that letter there's your extension of two years from your green card expiration, no need to sweat if it's gonna be done in 4 or 7 months then!

Yes, those times are certainly variable.  Detroit lists 8 months, and as I mentioned earlier my cousins did it in about 4.  Regardless, I would not worry about filing an I90, rather focus on you eventual upcoming N400 interview.

 

Good Luck!
