You were prepared and quick on the draw with your phone and digital access…
What is unusual is for her to actually conduct the I-751 and waive your wife’s presence.
Routinely they will just say , ok you passed N-400 but must wait I-751 decision then either approve it after or leave it lingering .
Lady Luck smiled on you. Congratulations
One thing i noticed after filling the I-751 jointly was the fact that every correspondence after filling to remove condition came addressed to only me as opposed to both of us since we both signed the letter typed up to support the I-751 application. Did i file to remove condition single handedly? or the center is different! Luck smiled on me for sure and put all the guess work to rest. Thank you for the congratulations.

So the Officer conducted an I-751 ( that was filed joint)…even though your spouse was NOT there? !!
Then approved ( passed) to do the N-400 ?
Thank you for posting, seems each Field Offices use varied strategies.
Yes! she only needed proof i was still with my spouse. She requested the original birth certificates of my kids. She complained bitterly that i had no Texas Driver's license since i moved from FL in May 2019. Relocated to the US Feb 2019. I defended that with COVID-19 delays about switching ID and the fact that my travel job did not allow. My FL license valid for 7yrs. Another issue was my rental lease. I submitted N-400 December 2021 with lease ending June 2022. She requested the lease renewal document which was signed June 2022 (I did not go with a copy and the pdf was sent to my wife's email by the real estate agent). She was pissed! She requested for any 2 recent documents to confirm that i still live with my spouse at the same address. I was confused and i asked her to allow me switch on my phone and log into my utility accounts to retrieve the pdfs of recent Utility bills. She agreed and i logged on to pull the utility bills. She rejected Internet bill outrightly. She also rejected Electricity and Gas because it showed only my name on both. Finally, i was lucky with the water bill(Had the current address with both of our names on the water bill and bill was generated as paid 2 days before the interview. After verifying the first document, she requested another to make it two. I scrambled and hopelessly flipped through the documents in my folder and saw our Texas DMV Proof Vehicle registration printed in color. She was glad that i found the second document(we renewed the vehicle registration 10 days before the interview, document had our current address and we co-own the car ) Bingo! she verified my wife's name on it and I survived the removal of condition interview-I-751. She became calm from there and the N-400 interview and tests were axed. I was with her for about 1hr.

Did you assume it was going to be a combo interview or were you instructed?
I dug up info about how they adjudicate combo applications and i assumed a combo based on my findings. However, the interviewer was shocked when i walked in without my spouse. She told me that without passing the removal of condition interview(I-751) i would not be able to do the N-400 Citizenship interview. I saw both files on her table with red pen marks on every page and several sticky notes. My I-751 interview was pending interview since October 2021. I submitted N-400 December 2021. The interview letter only specified N-400 citizenship. I was not instructed. After the I-751 interview, she congratulated me and we moved to the citizenship interview(2 parts). Total time of about 1 hr.

Cr1 entry to the US 02/27/2019!
N-400 Interview Scheduled for 10/11/2022. Filed early December 2021 and completed fingerprinting 01/15/2022. Cr1 ready to be interviewed for I-751(Removal of Condition) since October 20, 2021(324 days). GC extended for 24 months since Feb 2020(when the 2yr Cr1 GC expired) I read online that they usually request the two petitions and adjudicate together. This might be the reason why they aborted the 1-751 (Removal of Condition Interview). Got the interview updates on our 5th wedding anniversary 3 days ago-09/06/2022.

I got AP because of the attached. A joint sponsor. That was uploaded at NVC but there was a system glitch so VO could only access my wife’s AOS+Tax

Me and my wife's documents were just approved by the NVC today, so now the next step is for them to contact the U.S. Consulate in Nigeria to schedule an interview for my wife. Please, for those who had had the same experience, how long is the average wait time for the U.S. Embassy to schedule interviews. I would like to know so I could have an idea of when to expect. Please and thank you!
We got our case complete Cc November 2 2018 and got the interview email December 17 2018 (45 days)
interview is 36 days after getting the interview email.

is unfortunate for us still waiting but I think some service centers are faster than others not necessarily a skip. Am really watching out for new York service center they are really slow...anyone using same center ?
New York service center??? For what afte case complete, you can only be waiting on NVC or the USA embassy in the country the interview will be taking place. I have noticed you always referring to New York service center !!!
Elaborate on the Newyork service center thing.

How does the congressmen process work?
You can’t continue to leave this unending journey to chance!!! If you keep quiet 🤫, nothing will change. So sorry for that! 4 months is much and there is no crime in trying to use a congressman or senator. At uscis or NVC.
The most important point is that tons of people with CC after you have had their visas approved or interviews scheduled. So you are behind for no reason.
if you have no proof of people with CC after getting interviews, yeah the congressman thing won’t fly. NVC has got no reason not to give you interview since 4 months.
Congresional effort will point them to their grave automated mistakes and I can assure you that your case will be in Lagos before you know it and your interview e mail will drop. It’s just for someone with “constitutional right “ to contact them as a reminder.
Sending you a pm on the steps to take and how to contact either your senator or congressman.
i feel for you!!

I checked and still at NVC. PD Nov 1,2017, CC 8/8/2018. 4mths since case completed. I have called and called NVC but they give me their rehersed script. I’ve emailed the embassy they said they dont have my case yet so they can’t do anything. I’ve tried escalating but, they declined it twice. Every month I see people getting interview date that I should I gotten a date before. Please if anyone is reading this, and thought of anything that I have not done yet please tell me. who else can I email at NVC that I can get answers from. I feel helpless, Who can I contact that can shine some light to my husbands case. Lagos Embassy WHY??
So sorry about your husband’s case. Maybe you need to drag your congressman into the picture now.

Congrats to you,I got my mail today interview for January 16th 2019.
Wao Congratulations to us Harnu. My prayers to those expecting their own good news. With the stories about August or September still waiting for interview in Lagos, I was expecting late February or March 2019. My CC of November 4 2018 made me lose hope. It took just 43 days for me to get interview. For those waiting for over 4 months after CC, your case might have been skipped. There might be mistake in the automated scheduling. Petitioner should be ready to escalate to his or her congressman now!!!

Our conversation lasted few minutes and she said they will soon send out January interview dates for the Lagos embassy likely before the end of the week ( Not affirmative though!😩) CC 11/4/2018.

No prior instructions that the two interviews might be conducted on the same day. You have to prepare for both. I did mine without my spouse. It could be dependent on the story of the applicant or the center.
