I checked just says FKB CANCEL INTERVIEW BASED ON REQUEST. I assume it was a scheduling thing on their end.

I suggest you call and ask them who requested the cancellation and emphazise you did not make such request.

How would this help? I'm pretty sure there was an objective reason for cancellation, such as officer on sick leave, tight schedule, background check pending, change in priorities.

It's not like USCIS will change their mind and schedule for original timeslot because of phone call. And phone calls just waste USCIS time they could be spending on adjudicating cases. Anybody getting scheduled less than 6-12 months for the interview are super lucky.

From other interview cancelled posts I've seen, rescheduled interviews do not have the "based on request" wording. I'm with Frankjavir on this one. If Bat man did not request the interview be rescheduled, he should call or inquire further to be on the safe side.

"Based on request" comes from API code from what I understand, not cancellation letter.

I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world to call, though tier 1 support usually don't have info...

Keep us posted @Bat man

Am I missing something? Based on the USCIS website, it looks like the vast majority of cases are adjudicated in the 7-9 month range. To be taken with a pinch of salt and all, but are a lot of people going beyond 12 months? I don’t think I could take another ~8+ months of waiting!

My I-751 was supposed to be adjudicated in 7 months based on processing times, but it took 20.5 months.

And it was the case for almost everybody who filed around same time.

 

Same goes for N-400, only 2-3 years ago it was not out of ordinary to see a timeline like this:

 

Date Filed :    2022-11-10
NOA Date :    2022-11-10
Bio. Appt. :    2022-11-10
Interview Date :    2024-04-02
Approved :    Yes
Oath Ceremony :    2024-04-02

 

You can browse here: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/citlist.php?cfl=&op1=6&op2=&op3=&op4=71&op5=5,10,11&op6=All&op7=All

 

I'm not saying your case will take over a year @P055UM. Most likely it will take a lot faster. USCIS can always start processing cases slower without a warning though. So whoever gets scheduled for interview less than 6 months after filing should be considered lucky. I include myself in that list.

 

I wouldn't stress too much about wait. Being LPR is almost as good as being a citizen. Life shouldn't be on hold, unlike when you go through AOS and don't have EAD or SSN and cannot travel.

Why?

It will not be helpful at all.

We must also be patient 🙏

Milwaukee N-400 stats for Quarter 1-2025 show an average of 16 processed cases per day (Assuming months of 20 working days). Therefore their average waiting time is 9.8 months. Bad thing is their numbers indicate their imput of cases per month is higher than their output.

Where did you find this table? I would like to see for SF as well. Curious what the data is here.

This is correct that is based on the API code. The letter itself says

Quote

This is to advise you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to cancel the previously scheduled interview on Monday, June 30, 2025 at
10:30AM for the above applicant. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.
We will advise you of any further action taken on this case, including any rescheduled interview appointment information, under separate notice.
If you have any questions or comments regarding this notice or the status of your case, please contact the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) Contact Center toll free at 1-800-375-5283 (TTY 1-800-767-1833).

It's been a week since the online notification and Monday I got the physical copy in the mail. I'm not too worried about it yet since it's barely been 4 months since we submitted and I've read sometimes they overschedule themselves.

It's reassuring to learn that FKB is not a cause for concern; I appreciate you sharing your information, as it helps us understand these code events better. 

I did not mean to raise any unfounded worries; the description of the code was indeed troubling, and we are all in the process of learning about these codes. Hence, I thought it would be prudent to confirm that it wasn't an unintended request from the applicant to reschedule. I never brought up cancellation letters. There are more constructive ways to express disagreement with someone's opinion.
