  1. Hello everyone,

    So last night I saw my status changed to "We scheduled your oath ceremony for Receipt Number XXXXXXX. We sent a notice with the date, time, and location of your oath ceremony to the address you gave us. Please follow the instructions in the notice"

    Does anyone know, how long does it take from here? It's been about 10 years and I am just getting tired of checking the status online.. would be nice to get some timelines from you guys? Thanks

  2. Hi "Waiting4321".

    We were also requested for more information, but never received this message. Our status went directly to, you have been put in line for an Oath Ceremony, which had us assume we had been approved.

    What I have learned through my research and reading Many different timelines and process, is that they are super inconsistent! Don't stress until you know anything for sure. There were other people who got different or more messages than we did, it was VERY difficult to know what was coming next or guess a timeline. If you still want to investigate I would suggest only comparing cases in your district. I was able to estimate the upcoming Oath Ceremony dates somewhat, and what would happen to use next, but I had to only read cases for the Detroit Office and the western half of Michigan region.

    It is a long and tiring process, my heart is with you. Good Luck!

    The journey may be tiring but one Awesomly fantastic thing is how responsive and understanding people I have found. I have seen Plenty of kind and warm responses all around and that makes it much easier. Thank you for taking time to respond to me. I will keep everyone posted. Happy Holidays!

  3. Thank you for your quick and detailed response. I will keep everyone posted. Good luck!

    We had our Interview on Aug 9th. We were also asked to submit more documentation (not originals, another request). We prepared them and mailed them to arrive at the Detroit field office at 10am on Friday Aug 12th. We did not hear anything until Aug 26th when our online status changed to the below status.

    We placed you in line for your oath ceremony and will send you a notice for Receipt Number NBC----------, with the date, time, and location of your oath ceremony. You should receive your notice within 30 days of its mailing date. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

    We did not receive the status you have, which I would assume would come before ours. I searched around online and it seems there is a next status that reads "You have been scheduled for an Oath Ceremony...". The woman on the general hotline said this is what should happen. This said, I have been told or seen people write that they

    - Only received one or the other of these status

    - received no status updates and got a call asking them to come the next day because someone canceled and there was an opening.

    - Received the status I now have and it only changed to say "You have been scheduled.." the day before the notice came in the mail

    - They received the status "You have been scheduled... please notify us if you do not receive it by --/--/--" and they received it and their Ceremony was before the given date to notify of non arrival. So they would have missed the Ceremony if the mail got lost.

    - They were told at the Interview the date despite being is the Western District, and then their official letter came in the mail after the Oath happened.

    So all of this said. If they approve you you should get the above status, then a status that you have been Scheduled, then receive a letter. But all of that doesn't always happen. Basically you just have to wait and guess and it is frustrating. My biggest concern is the mail getting lost and missing the Ceremony because they give you a date after your ceremony to notify if you haven't gotten the letter!

    If you live in the Western District they do your Ceremony in Grand Rapids or Kalamazoo. One person posted that they do them the third Wednesday of the month, and this is consistent with about four Grand Rapids Oath dates I could find on Timelines, but someone was told that there was no GRR Ceremony this month. There is a Kalamazoo Oath on the 16th and possibly the "end of September"

    Hope some of this was helpful. Please let us know if you learn anything more than this!

  4. Hello everyone,

    So I had my interview. Everything went well but there was a request for further documentation (what I had were copies and they wanted official/notarized docs) which I provided. Just today I saw the status changed to "On September 7, 2016, your case, Form N-400, Application for Naturalization , Receipt Number #### was submitted to a supervisor for review. This is a standard process we use to ensure the quality of our decisions. We will let you know if we make a decision or need anything from you"

    Did anyone go through this? How long does it take from here to the next step? Does the status change on the site? Is this the time to visit my senator to speed up the process? Any suggestions and insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

  5. Great news man! Good luck. Really happy for you. I am also waiting for the letter. Hoping the interview would go well!

    Good luck to everyone else too!

    Wow! You better make an appointment at your closest passport agency as soon as you can. You'll have 48 hours to get a passport!

    Edit:
    Sorry! I just realized this was for interview not oath. It'll ibly be an issue of you are offered a same day ceremony. Good luck!

  6. Hello everyone,

    so I reached out to USCIS asking for the stratus of my case since I have been waiting for about 8 months since fingerprints. Here is what they said.

    "Due to workload factors not related to your case, USCIS anticipates a delay in completing your case. USCIS is committed to adjudicating immigration benefits in the order received and in a timely and efficient manner. We regret any inconvenience that results from delays in processing."

    did anyone else get the same message? Does anyone have any advise?

    Note: My case is at Texas office

  7. Thank you Jimmy!

    If you've done your biometrics you might be stuck in a background check. You need to follow up with USCIS because it's been a very long time. Start with a Case Inquiry online then try setting up an appointment and asking in person.

    If you haven't received your biometrics notice, then something's wrong... it may have been lost in the mail... same advice as above.
