The fact that you applied at the same time doesn't necessary mean your timelines will be the same. I know two siblings and their mother who all applied in Feb 2017. One of them got an interview in November, the other two in January of this year. I assume files get distributed to different "desks" and not all move at the same rate or in the same order. 

However, they'll notify you at least a month before the interview, and if you absolutely have to travel at the appointed date, you have enough time to ask to postpone the interview. 

I know it's not necessary to receive the same time, but I was assuming since we were scheduled for biometrics around the same date we might experience the same for the interview! I think I'll postpone my travel (even I already bought the ticket) but I won't risk it by rescheduling or postpone. Thanks for your reply!  

Hello everyone, 

We applied as a family (separate files of course) my application info dates are: 

they receive it on: 3/15/2018

biometerics appt: 3/17/2018

the actual date for biometrics: 4/3/2018

Now: under review 

however, my sister received an interview date two days ago, her info:

they receive it on: 3/12/2018

biometrics appt: 3/17/2018

the actual date for biometrics: 4/7/2018

scheduled her for interview: 4/26/2018

interview date: 6/5/2018

other applications same info, but maybe 2-3 days difference of each 

our applications start with IOE if it does matter, any idea when should I expect to be scheduled for interview cuz I'll travel in the end of June (I thought it will take longer time) we haven't finished 5 yrs yet, will complete 5 yrs in a few days though.

oh, we have all almost same recipt# except me last two number in 50s while the rest are in 70s !! we applied together. 

From our experience (as the entire family applied for I-400) we are from Islamic country, there is no delay but it was quick! less than 2 months for the entire process and we’re waiting for officer interview ( my brother’s name is MEMET!) we thought he would take forever to get his processed but thanks God everything seems to be nice! Maybe it depends on your state, we’re in CA
