What's your NOA1 date? You don't have a timeline linked so I wasn't sure. My NOA1 is 24th March and it still isn't online, but there are 46 receipt numbers mising online in one bunch (yes I sat there and checked them to see on a tracking app).

Bear in mind if you decide to call it has to be the petitioner not beneficiary who does so. I tried :-( Now waiting for time zones to match to try them again.

Keen to see how you go as I'm in the same situation.

Mine is March 1. I am the petitioner. I will call them today.

What do you mean by 46 receitps missing??

I entered the receipt number into the uscis website to track my petition for my father. but it always said the number didnt exist. Should I call them? Thank you.

awesome. thanks so much for your help.

We are from Vietnam. For some reason I thought that once they are divorced, the marriage certificare does no longer exist.

I am a lil bit confused that my parents divorced a long time ago, so how can I get their marriage certificate?

So I am going to sponsor my father to the US. But my parents got divorced when I was 2 (like 25 years ago), and I lived with my dad since then. Do I have to enclose their divorce paper when applying for i130? Thank you.

Hello Everybody i have a question,

are there 2 different for inline interview updates?

such as,

1. you are inline date december 15

2. we started the interview scheduling process for your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization

??

i feel like i saw more sentences in my first update and now its like 2-3 sentences with different words.. i can't tell

1. It means they put you on a waiting list for the interview, and it's not scheduled yet.

2. It means they have already scheduled your interview. You will receive the interview letter soon.

Congrats kt128 Would love to hear how it went

Thank you . It was quite of a journey. I thought I wouldn't make it on time. It was supposed to start at 10, but because of the bad weather, they waited until everyone got there, which was 11. The ceremony was simple and last only for 15 mins (I guess the judge wanted to get out of there as soon as possible, before the snow storm got worse). At the end, an uscis officer gave each of us the certificate on the way out. I went there by myself and there was no problem.

Mine was only 2.5 months. I even applied with a lost GC.

My wife was naturalized on 12-23-2014, total process time being over 11 months from filing.

A Vietnamese there submitted her application about the same time as my wife, another Vietnamese about 2 weeks before that, & a Chinese about a year ago. Westerners whom I talked with (i.e., 2 Canadians & a Briton), however had about half the wait time. So I'm going to go out on a limb here & say that perhaps there's a quota system based on country, & that applicants are throttled through in a manner that's in keeping with those quotas.

Anyway, it's done. We're through. And good luck to those still in queue.

There's no quota. I am Vietnamese, and it only took me 2 months to get naturalized. But congrats!

My oath is going to be on jan 08.

I am a naturalized American, and my Viet passport is still valid. My question is, does Vietnam allow me to have dual citizenship? I plan to show my Viet passport to go through border custom in Vietnam when I go back there to visit since you know that Americans have to pay for visas to visit Vietnam. Thank you!

Congrats from one Wisconsinite to another!

Thanks all.

Happychic: May I ask where you live in Wisconsin. I live in Madison

please share your experience with us.. what were the questions??

thank you

I just had my interview today, and I was recommended for approval after 20 minutes. I applied under 3 year rule and with a lost green card. I lost the card the past summer. I figured I would apply for the citizenship instead of paying 450 only for a replacement card. So here is my recap of the interview:

- Waited 30 mins to be called. It seemed like everyone before me got approved since they looked happy when they got out of the room. My female officer was very friendly. She asked me to put my passport, driver license, and green card on the table. I told her I lost it a few months ago and that I only had my conditional one now. She took my conditional one and said that I needed to fill out a sworn statement that everything I said about it was true. I just actually signed my name on the form which she printed out from her computer. After that, I had the civic test. Then she asked me about those yes-no questions from the application form. While she was filling out some paperwork, we had small chitchat about my husband and schooling. I was so surprised that she was so friendly and happy to me.

- Then she said congratulations! oath ceremony should be scheduled in Jan or Feb. I asked whether or not I could request it be held in Feb since I have a trip sometime in Jan. She said no, but I could write a letter to reschedule if that was the case; otherwise I would have to pay again for the application.

- Some highlights: She didn't ask to see any evidence. I offered her to see some, but she said NO.

Overall, it's a very smooth process; it only took 2 months. Because I was short of money, I was so scared that they would require me to apply for a replacement card first before approving. My immigration journey is almost over. Thank you everyone on this forum for the past 4 years.

I passed the interview today! Good luck to everyone else!

Hi,

I am going to have my interview next month. The letter mentions that I need to bring original IRS 1722 letter to the interview, but I know IRS doesn't send that letter anymore. My question is, does USCIS want tax return transcript or tax account transcript instead? I've already included the copies of my tax return transcripts of the past 3 years into my application. Thank you!

Received the interview letter today. Scheduled for 12/10. Please update it. Thanks.

Hi,

I just received the yellow letter saying I need to bring my passport and travel documents. The thing is that I sent my old ticket to USICS when I applied for the 10 year green card, So now I don't have any travel document except all the stamps in my passport. What can I do? Any suggestion is appreciated.

When is the interview?

It doesn't mention when. It just says I was scheduled for the interview, and I'll receive the letter within 30 days.

Is it normal not to receive any yellow letter? Today I received a message saying that I was scheduled for the interview.

please let me know if I should print N-400 form both sides of the paper or single side?

It doesn't matter. I did print it both sided, and I was fine.

Received email saying that I'm in line for interview! Does it mean fingerprints/ background check went through?

I am scheduled for the biometrics on 10/27! Funny that I just received the letter today! Please update my info. Thanks a bunch.

Received NOA today. Please add it to the timeline. Thank you!
