Hi, we (my wife, my son, and I) submitted our N400 application around the same time in April. I completed my interview in September and also the oath a couple of weeks after my interview.

But neither my wife nor son have received even the interview notice so far. Is this within the normal?

Yes, it's normal. Each case is individual. It's processed by different people and adjudicated by different officers. Cases are not processed on strictly first in first out basis. For example, my friend filed I-751 two weeks after me. Got approval like 4-5 months earlier than me. Same age, same occupation, same marital history, same nationality etc. You just never know.

 I finally did interview this Tues. Been told from now on , no more same day oath ceremony after approval, this was just changed recently.

And my officer told me it is across the country, so if you can not get same day oath it is normal from now on I guess.

She said there is backlog so best not travel in 30-90 days, though she told me could check with USCIS if not hear anything after 3 weeks, I will see.

Saw some posts in other place saying their oath has been canceled recently because of the shutdown in same state, just some heads up. Office: Portland, OR

Congratulations 🎉 🎉 🎉 👏 👏

Yeah that's right.

The average time for the oath ceremony to be scheduled after the approval is now between two to three weeks in most cases.

Hi, I am new here, I have interview next month, I got my greencard 5 years ago, I came to US on a visitor visa and over stayed for many years, my son a US citizen petition me and my I485 and I130 was approved. Apart from my overstay everything is all good, do I need to worry about this at my citizenship interview?

I heard at some offices ICE is there and USCIS is doing a denying based on overstay.

You are an immediate relative of US citizen. - https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-eligibility/green-card-for-immediate-relatives-of-us-citizen

 

As long as you disclosed your overstay during adjustment, it was forgiven and you have nothing to worry about.
