Went for my interview today. Arrived 20 minutes early and they let me in. I was called to the window about 5 minutes before my appointment time, and I was done in 30 minutes. There are 5 windows and there were 5 people including myself. While we were doing our interviews the next batch of 5 trickled in to wait.
 
After the interview was done I waited for 20 minutes or so and was led to another room to perform the oath ceremony. Again there were 5 people so I think I only waited for our batch to proceed together. Handed a form to fill to say none of my status had changed since the interview 20 minutes beforehand, given an envelope with a letter from the president, another envelope with passport application and some other stuff, the naturalization certificate and a little US flag. I was walking back to my car at around 1h20 after my appointment time.
 
I was not expecting to become a citizen today! Now I need to go register to vote, as they couldn't do that part.

Hi everyone, I filed my N-400 on the 26th of June 2020, I received biometrics re-use on august 7th and I was scheduled for interview for October 2nd by 11am a Lawrence Ma, the interview went well and in 1hr I came out with my Citizenship certificate, I went into the building as a green card holder around 10:40am and came out Around 11:55am as a US citizen, thanks to everyone on visa journey my immigration story can’t be complete without you all, I started from Adjustment of status and I never pay any lawyer a dime bcos VJ has been helpful. Wish you all good luck in all your endeavour 

My naturalization interview is scheduled at Lawrence, MA, on 11/17 at 7.30 am. Also, in the letter, they mentioned the processing would take about two hours.
Thanks, guys, for the useful posts about the interview.
It's time to start for the preparation.

In terms of documentations what all do we need to take to the Naturalization interview  A photocopy of the filled form which has all questions answered. I did get furlough from my full time job and took up a couple of temporary jobs & my wife got a different job. So will try to take papers/letters/paystubs supporting that. do we need printed tickets/emails for all the travel history  10 Yr GC originals Marriage certificate/both our birth certificates - originals Tax returns - originals Leases and mortgage contract etc. - originals anything else I'm missing. Those who have finished their interview, please let me know if this is a good enough list or any more that I need to take to the interview.

This is 100% same thing I saw as well. No update of status or whatsoever, just Biometrics Reuse notice was attached. I guess IOE is NBC until they send it to the local office for Interview etc.
Submitted: May 8th 
Biometrics Reuse: October 22nd  ( I just noticed it today)
 
 

Applied online 5/19/20
Biometric reuse letter 9/29/20
Interview letter 10/28/20 - Interview scheduled for 12/2/20

Congrats. It is nice to see things moving.  When did you did your last biometrics? I had my biometrics before a year for travel document, I am wondering if they can reuse it for N400. But, there was not move since May. 

I just received biometric reuse notification in the mail today. The notice has also been uploaded to my online account. I'm glad my case is moving forward!

Hi all, anyone from Boston, MA? I submitted my N400 on the 5th of May 2020 and the only activity in my case is the NOA. I have not received an information regarding biometrics or interview.
 
Congratulations to others whose case is progressing!

Received my 10 year Green Card today and moving on to the final stage ie, Naturalization. It feels like a marathon, no time to stop just keep moving forward.

Very happy for you!

My case was approved today! The case status changed from "finger prints received" to "new card is being produced". I adjusted from H1B and category CR6. No RFE and no interview. Good luck to everyone waiting, it's gonna be anytime soon.

Oh ok, at least you have a 10 year green card so you don't have to worry about it until it's time for your citizenship. I haven't heard anything from USCIS and my case status still says "fingerprint applied to your case". Hopefully I should hear some good news by the end of March 2020, fingers crossed!

Card was mailed to me on March 3rd. Not sure when I am able to see it! Im so excited! Finally the wait is over!!!!

Congratulations @Lip Gallagher. I'm glad you did not have any interview a well 🙂 Will you be applying for citizenship soon?

I just saw an update that USCIS has transferred some cases to share workload (https://www.uscis.gov/workload-transfers). Hopefully this should speedup the process, let's see!
