Hi NJ people. Idk why there are no updates here, but since I read all the comments in this thread and helped me I will post here. I applied on October 2021 some of you know kearny usps had a problem with the roof and there were delays with the mail. I thought I lost my package, I was stressing because My only court disposition certified was there. Went to court and they never gave me another one except for the expungement. So Def there was stress there. I received an update that the package was delivered and NOA November 01, 2021. Bio for November 30, 2021. I didn't pay attention to the estimate, but I think it said like 15 months if im not mistaken. Last week of may I received an update that the interview was schedule for july 12, 2022. So last week I reserved a parking with an app (spothero) for the parking next to the building 1000 broad st. The app said to scan the barcode, there was no scanner and no one there. So I had to press for a ticket and the gate open. And to come out you come out via orchard st. And there was a machine to pay the ticket, which came out to $21. So Im not even mad at spot hero at this point. I will take the L but If I had to do it again I wouldn't use spot hero and just go there, because it was cheaper paying cash. Went to the building and up to 15th floor waited like 2 hours 30 mins and I was called to approach a door. The interviewer asked me for my green card and passport. Then the standard questions. Who was the fist president? What is one duty as a citizen? What are the first 3 words.....? Capital of New jersey? A war in the 1800's? And I forgot the other one but I think it was a right of a citizen. Then read a sentence, What is the largest state of the US. and write Alaska is the largest state. Then the standard yes and no questions, file taxes or if I owe any money. Have I ever been arrested and If I submitted the court disposition, which I did. He checked that, told me to check if the info was correct on the tablet and said I was approved. Some people that were approved will have their oath ceremony at another place next week. From what I heard a lawyer telling a couple of her clients, I think it was like a special oath ceremony if they were from that county they were likely going to do it there. As my journey ends here, I want to thank the people of this website and forums that wrote their experiences. And to @sandranj the lawyer at the Vawa forum, I read her responses to the vawa recipients and realize that there are still some good lawyers that care. And that's how my journey on this forum began. I filed everything myself from Vawa to 485 to n400. (tips that helped reading this forum and listen on spotify n400 questions). Eat a good breakfast because you are likely going to be there for a while.

So I guess I am part of this club, well I was one of the unlucky october nj filers who had to suffer a delay because of a roof at usps collapsing. After thinking my package was lost, I finally received an update that my mail was at the uscis location. So it finally was accepted November 1, 2021. Biometrics for 11/30/2021. I receive an update the last week of May and it was about the interview for July 12 at Newark, NJ. The interview went well and I was approved. The officer just asked my for my green card and my passport. Asked me 6 questions the standard read and write sentence. Yes and no questions and that's it, he told me I passed and approved.
