i tried to set up an infopass appointment for my n-400 case but when i check online. The website says like this:

"If it has been over 45 days since you contacted NCSC and have not received a response to your inquiry. You must bring the Service Request ID Number related to your inquiry to the appointment".

I was interviewed March 24, 2011 and i need to know what is going on with my case. Can i go ahead and make an appointment without Service Request ID #?

I was asked to sent the documents 30 days after the interview. I did send the documents April 21 and somebody received it April 22 according to UPS website. Somebody signed it from USCIS office. But of course, you can't help but think where is my paperwork or did my IO got it before April 24 or else I will be automatically denied. Those kind of thoughts running through my head. But I am praying that I will get my oath taking letter very soon because I have several appointments and business meetings outside the country. BIG SIGH!!!!

Oh, just a correction. I was interviewed March 24.

Yes, that's true. All we have to do is wait and wait. Big sigh! I am supposed to go outside the country for a conference but I decided to stay. I wanted to make sure this whole "citizenship" thing will be over and done with. Let us just be more patient though im on the verge of breaking down :-)

Thank you JUST BOB, NICKD AND SZILVIA74...i apologized if im not used to this reply thing..i am a newbie..lol.im still learning..Thank you all..

My timeline:

Dec 2007 - Applied for Temporary Green Card

February 15, 2008 - My temporary green card arrived

Dec 2009 - Applied for 10 year Permanent Green Card

April 2010 - My 10 year green card arrived

Dec 2010 - Applied for Naturalization

April 24, 2011 - Done with my interview was asked to send more document

What kind of proof? Can only speak from experience, wife had to bring both her expired passport and new FOREIGN passport that her IO pretended to check that all her listed dates were correct.

I say pretended, not with her new passport, that was clean with only a couple of stamps on it, but her old one where she made many trips with her work to various Latin American countries, plus also our pre-marriage trips that fell within that three year time frame since she became a LPR. That was a mess, these POE guys aren't exactly neat with stamps on top of stamps. Took me seemingly hours to interpret those days and only was a couple of dates since she became a LPR. But that was settled then and there at her interview. Five months shouldn't be a problem for you, but apparently they are questioning those dates.

They say good luck on your interview, that includes good driving weather, no traffic accidents and not necessarily yours, and getting a halfway reasonable IO. We had good luck with the two former, but not necessarily with the latter. Didn't anyone wish you good luck?

*I prayed the whole time. With this experience, the Lord wanted me to learn something, to be PATIENT* Thank you.:-)

Thank you everyone for the replies. Makes me feel better. I am just not used to waiting because with my prior applications, it was so quick. Very quick that i thought my citizenship application will be the same. But i am wrong. Too much expectation. The proof that my IO need from me is the medical certificate of my father and my brother. She wanted to make sure i wasnt lying when i told her its due to medical and health reason of my father and brother why i was out of the country for 5 months.

I really appreciate all your replies..

I was reading your posts and i felt like its quite similar to my case. I had my interview April 24 and i passed the test. But the IO questioned me why i stayed outside the country for 5 months last year. She ask additonal document. I told her my father and brother is sick. I was asked to give proof. I already sent the documents they needed but until i did not get any letter that they got my documents. I am just confused.

I am in the same boat. I was interviewed april 24 and i was asked to submit more documents because i was out of the country for 5 months. I filed my citizenship through marriage. I did sent the documents needed almost 2 weeks now and i never heard from them. What shall i do? Any suggestions? Do i call now or what number to call? I am just so lost and i am bothered.

i had the same experience..did you ever heard back from them?

I just had my interview last April 24. I passed my test but i was asked to send more documents as proof because i was out of the country for 5 months. I was out of the country since my father and brother are sick at the same time. My brother was diagnosed with cancer last year. I thought, its okay to apply as long as you did not exceed more than 6 months. I applied my naturalization based on my marriage. I sent the documents they needed but i did not hear from IO anymore. Its been almost 2 weeks. Does anybody has the same experience? I am quite worried now.
