    That's not fair, is it? Many of us here applied, many many moons ago and still waiting. And you just arrived and already schedule for Oath? I'm not happy about that at all.

    We have similar timeline. I was almost sure, or assumed, yours was completed and a US Citizen now. The good thing is you already have done the interview, mine is still in the pipeline, waiting for the interview. I think I read somewhere there is some talk about what to do with the cases who have filed for N-400 but have a pending i-751. They were gonna have discussions on what to do to make things better, but I haven't read anything since. The "talk" is probably still in the discussion phase. In the meantime, we the applicants are stuck in limbo while they decide what to do.

    Combo interview for my I-751/N-400 was last October. Was recommended for approval for citizenship but still waiting on a formal decision. Guessing COVIID and the backlog have takes their toll. Still, would be nice to get to the finish line. :)

    Omg I’m so sorry you’ve been waiting so long. Have you contacted them? Tried the case inquiry? I think it may have given my cases a bump (that is, if they’re really giving me an interview appointment now, I’m still doubtful). Another option might be to contact your congressman or-woman?

    Thank you for your comment. I did tried and they said, it is still within processing times.

    You are NOT ALONE

     

    ROC I-751 Filed       2019-03-08

    Bio Aptt                    2019-07-31

    Filed N400 online   2020-03-19

    Bio Reused Notice 2020-12-14

    They say, we are facing DELAYS due to Covid19

    Sacramento, California is my local USCIS Office

     

    I guess we don't have any other option except to sit tight and wait... It depends on multiple factors, from State to local USCIS office workloads and most importantly your luck too, I have seen people stay stuck for 2 years and some lucky peeps get citizenship within 5 months. All I do is try to ignore tracking it lolss but it doesn't help much though

    Hello everyone! I'm little bit frustrated I heard some of you or all have already got interviewed and probably got their citizenship but I still have not heard from mine after the biometric. I filed last October 2019. I don't know when they're going to call me for interview. It's been more than a year. 😭

    Same here...nothing...same timeline.

    My I-751: June 28, 2019

    biometrics: July 30, 2019

    Case ready for interview: September 11, 2019

    N-400: August 28, 2020

    Move from Georgia to Kentucky September 2020

     

     case inquiry about I-751 in January 2021

     “new” case status: ready for interview, January 25, 2021

     
    I called them on Jan 28, 2021 to see what’s going on and apparently they’re really really trying to schedule my interview in Louisville, KY. And the biometrics for my N-400 were waived. I’m on tenterhooks because my extension expires soon and I just want one of these cases to move forward -.- 

     

    Nothing here too, this is my timeline:

    I-751 - September 2018

    N-400 - September 2019

     

    We are now  in February 2021.

     

    Am I the only one left behind?

    I filed I-751 on 09/2018 then my N400 on 10/2019. I was suppose to be interviewed on the last week on March 2020 but because of COVID it was de-scheduled. My interview is on 08/12/2020 at 12:30pm in the Los Angeles office. I am not sure it it'll be a combo interview and it does not state in the letter if I need to bring my husband however he is planning to come with me anyways. My question is because of this COVID situation will they let me go in with my husband? Anyone has experience with N400 interview under 3 year rule?

    Best of Luck on your interview tomorrow. Update us how it goes. We have the same timelime on i-751 and N-400, but has no movement as of yet.

    My i-751 is from summer 2018 and N400 Summer 2019 so if you figure something out let us know. It takes a while...my extension letter has long expired. All you'll get is an update of where your case is and that they are waiting on the next step when you contact them. You're still well within normal processing time. 

    Same timeline here. I would not expect too much at this time. The whole world is paralyzed.

    Do you track both cases online? did you added your i 751 with your n400? Did you add extension letter to your n400 process? Sorry many questions

    Yes, we track both cases online. I don't know or didn't see an option to add the i-751 to N-400. But we assumed that they know about the pending i-751 since, it got transferred right after filing N-400. Our 18 month extension has now expired.

    Which office? Mine originally SRC (texas) but transfered to potomac service 

    Ours is LINxxx. The last update was October 2019 , that it was transferred to the new jurisdiction, right after N-400 was submitted online. The N-400 last update was October 2019 also after Biometrics was completed. And I noticed on this thread that many have already become citizens or about to be very soon.

    Had my interview this morning at the Chicago office. The entire interview/Civic test and all was less than 15 minutes.

    And I was approved on the spot (see attached document).

    I was scheduled for 8:35AM. I got there earlier than that, around 7:30AM. And they Called/interviewed me before 8AM.

    I wish the rest of you all a successful smooth interview process

    You will find a lot of similar cases. 

    We have the same timeline and i-751 pending also. No change, still waiting for interview schedule. It seems almost everyone already got their schedule or already finished and had taken their oath.

    Hi guys,

     

    I applied for citizenship through military service on October 7th. They sent a Request for initial evidence, I responded then they updated my online status to Case was actively reviewed by uscis on November 5th. It's still the same. By the way I have my I-751 on pending. Any similar cases?

    Hello Everyone! 

    I  just had my Naturalization interview this morning and I want to share my experience here.

    I was asked 6 questions:

    What is the capital of the United States?

    What ocean is on the East Coast of the United States?

    Name the U.S. war between the North and the South

    Who was the first President?

    What is one thing Benjamin Franklin is famous for?

    How many justices are on the Supreme Court?

    He went over my application, then he asked me the yes / no questions and that's it. He told me my application has been recommended for approval. It didn't take more than 10 minutes. Now my status changed "Oath Ceremony Will Be Schedule". 

    Good Luck everybody!

    Just got home from my interview. Recommended for approval!

     

    The whole interview took about 20 minutes; the officer was the same lady that did our green card interview back in 2016. 

    I applied using 3-year rule, so the officer started with asking me if my marriage was in good standing, then she asked me to confirm my date of birth and address, then asked me civics questions (she asked 6, I answered all correctly). Then she did the English language part: I had to read a sentence from a tablet and then write a sentence on the same tablet. After this, she asked me about the traffic violations that I mentioned on my applications. I had two minor fender-benders back in 2013-2014 and I submitted the documents proving that I paid the fines. I also brought printed out copies of those, but she didn't ask for them. Then, she asked me questions from the application (have I ever been a terrorist, a vigilante, etc, do I promise to respect the Constitution). After all this, I had to confirm that my information is correct and she said that I should get oath ceremony appointment within two months. I'm changing my middle name, so it's going to be a courthouse ceremony.

    My status on the USCIS website is still the same, but it'll probably take a couple of days to update.

     

    This is a huge relief! I've been super stressed out about the interview!

    Congratulations!!!

    Just passed my N-400/I-751 interview. 
     

    Charleston, SC 
    July 24, 2019 applied online
    Aug 8, 2019 biometrics
    Interview scheduled 23 September, 2019
    Interview November 12, 2019
    Oath November 21, 2019

     

    Had pending I-751, the officer conducted first N-400 interview and then approved my I-751, my husband was with me but was left in the waiting area. 
    N-400 I was asked few questions from the N400 (yes/no questions). Then asked me 6 civic questions. 

     

    1. Who does a U.S. Senator represent?
    2. Who vetoes bills?
    3. What is the highest court in the United States?
    4. What is the capital of your state?
    5. Why did the colonists fight the British?
    6. 81. Who did the United States fight in World War II?

     

    Reading: 

    “Where is the White House?”

    Writing: 

    “The White House is in Washington, D.C.”

     

    He then told me my application was recommended for approval.

     

    Since I had my I-751 pending he printed out two pages and wrote down notes. First he said he had looked up some things before I came for my interview so he knows our marriage is not a fraud. He just wrote down that my husband and I owe our house, that we have kids, what my husband does for living and told me I was approved. Didn’t want to talk to my husband, didn’t want to see any documents. He had my entire file in front of him. 

     

    After I left within 30 minutes I got e-mail from USCIS worker letting me know I had my oath scheduled for next week and sent me a copy in my e-mail so I can print it if I don’t get mail in time. 

    Good luck!

    Congratulations!

    Hi guys I'm planning to file N400 by the end of October. I've lived in the US for more than 5 years and also have been married to the same US citizen for more than 5 years. I am confused which category I should apply based on. Thanks!

    If you are filing online, it will ask you a series of questions custom to you. The minimum eligibility is 2 years and 9 months from the time you get your first green card, so depending on when you received your first GC, that determines which rule your eligibility falls under.

    Throw away the paper one, begin filling in the online one. You can fill it out without submitting it. They keep them for 3 months I think. You can correct, review, delete, amend as much as you want to before submitting.

    Maybe it has changed, on mine It said the system will keep it for 30 days, then if it has not been submitted or paid for, it will delete automatically.
