N-400 Seattle (Part 2)
Trent & Alexa replied to TBoneTX's topic in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports
I’m officially a US citizen! 🎉 I was super nervous before the interview but it was a lot easier than I thought. My appointment time was 12:10pm and I got called in at 12:45. The interviewer was very nice. Started with the 6 questions: What movement tried to end racial discrimination Name one state that borders Canada Where is the Statue of Liberty What’s the name of the national anthem Name two US holidays In what month do we vote for president After this he asked quick questions about my work, my husband, my most recent international trips and asked me if I wanted to take the oath today! All in all the interview lasted no more than 10 min. The oath ceremony started at 1:10pm. We were maybe 20 people in the room. I’m glad I got to take the same day oath and not have to worry about USCIS anymore Now off to applying for a passport! Thanks to everyone on VisaJourney for your help over the years! A page is finally closing! -

Thank you for your detailed experience! For the marriage evidence, did you bring documents similar to what was needed for 751? -

N400 JUNE 2022 FILERS
Trent & Alexa replied to SMK 89's topic in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports
Hi everyone! Just randomly logged into my USCIS account today and now my case status says that the "Interview Was Scheduled". There's no interview date, so I am guessing I'll get the letter with the actual date in the mail in a few days. I was surprised because it's only been 3 months since I filed, but it looks like a few of you too got your interviews scheduled fairly quickly. Looks like some of you already went through your interviews, or have them very soon! Would anyone mind sharing their experience? Thanks! -
I-751 July 2021
Trent & Alexa replied to Anne C's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
Thank you! The RFE was because we didn't give enough proofs of commingled finances. At the time of filing we were living with my husband's father. Right after filing, we bought a house so we were able to send the house title as evidence when we got the RFE, plus the latest 2021 tax return. We originally filed from California and service center was CSC. Then we moved to Washington, and I'm not sure if the service center changed. 🤔 -
I-751 July 2021
Trent & Alexa replied to Anne C's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
My I-751 finally got approved yesterday! It took a little over a year! I filed in July 2021 and got an RFE in April 2022 that I replied to in June. I also just filed my N-400 in June. -
N400 JUNE 2022 FILERS
Trent & Alexa replied to SMK 89's topic in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports
Exact same thing happened twice! Not sure what it was. Maybe about them mailing the physical receipt notice and bio waiver because I received them few days later. -
Not enough proof of commingled finances. We were both living at my father in law in order to save money to buy a house, so no lease to show for. Sent the ROC in July 2021 but bought a house right after in September 2021. And maybe so much time had passed (9 months) so they also wanted to verify we were still together? Hopefully the house will help to show shared assets.

I-751 July 2021
Trent & Alexa replied to Anne C's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
Well, I hope not 😱 . I moved to Washington state 8 month ago and guessing my local office is now Seattle. I filed I-751 in July 2021, got an RFE in April 2022 and just today filed my N-400. Will keep you posted! -
I recently filed my N-400 (marriage based, I've been a lawful permanent resident for the last 3 years, my I-751 still processing) and I'm having second guesses about the "Time Outside the US" section. In this section, they ask for how many trips and total days did you spend outside the United States during the last 5 years. (I know the other way to get citizenship is to be a lawful permanent resident for 5 years but in my case it's 3.) I have only filled in the trips that I took since moving to the US which was 4 years ago. Thing is, 5 years ago I was living outside the US (for obvious reasons as I was waiting for my K-1 Visa to get approved). I was not a US resident back then. Did that count as time spent outside the US? Or am I freaking out for no reason? While filing I was pretty sure that even though they ask for the last 5 years, the year where I was living abroad waiting for my K-1 Visa to get approved doesn't count as time spent outside the US because I hadn't moved to the US yet. But now I'm driving myself crazy wondering if I messed this up.

Hi everyone 🙂 I entered the US on a K1 Fiancée Visa in May 2018. I filed form I-751 in July 2021 and received an RFE in April 2022. I will be sending my packet of evidence to respond to the RFE in a few days. Can I file for my N-400 at the same time? Or would you advise I wait to hear back on form I-751? Thanks in advance!
