I had my interview this morning at the Las Vegas FO. Was approved on the spot and was given a form saying "recommended for approval". But there have been no updates online as of yet. Most people say the online status changes to Approved the same day. The reason I'm worried is because the same thing happened during my Green Card interview. Was approved on the spot but I didn't hear from them for like 5-6 months.

This means you weren't approved yet. Hopefully you'll get approval within few days.

Thanks. I had politely requested for an early oath ceremony date because I have to travel abroad urgently. Hope this request didn't trigger anything unwanted.

You weren't approved on spot in my view. On spot means status was updated within few hours. Like when I went through AOS, my case status was updated within 2 hrs and card was sent to production on same or next day.

It shouldn't. It's a valid request. Some officer's just don't have full authority over case and have to get approval from a higher up

😱😱😱 goodluck! Hope you'll have it soon! 🤞

What is more is shows “Your case is taking longer than we previously estimated, but it is within normal processing times.”for two months now . So there is no estimated time

There's nothing to worry about. The estimates mean nothing. Any case under 12 months is within normal processing times. Good luck!

thanks for your support! The fact that some people who applied later than me at the same location are already completed  their  journey is stresses me out though

There's always people whose cases get approved faster or slower.

When I submitted my I-751, the estimated time was 7 months. It took 20.5 months.

 

The funny part, a friend who is similar age as me, same immigration history, similar job etc submitted case 2 weeks later than me, and got approved 3-4 months faster than me. But there were people who waited even longer than me around same time. You'll get your approval, it's the last stretch 😊

We filed N400 on March 29, 2025 using the three year rule. Filed electronically. 

We had I751 pending since March 2024. 

 

We had an interview August 20, 2025 in San Diego. Combo interview. 

Took about 30 minutes for each. I751 first. 

Cleared both. 

Got certificate and sworn in same day upstairs at the oath ceremony room. 

Applied for a US passport at a booth the US State Dept sets up at the back of the room of the ceremony room. 

We did everything DIY using this community however we hired an attorney just to go with us to the interview and review paperwork.

Just posting an update for my case.

They just uploaded the Oath Ceremony letter to my online account.

Sadly, it got scheduled pretty far out. I've been scheduled for October 13 at the Philadelphia Field Office.

At least I already know when all this process will end.


I will post an update after the Ceremony.

Best wishes for everyone!
