Hi Guys, 

Interview has just been scheduled and I's like to start collecting the support documents as soon as possible. Can I ask to refer me to the appropriate comment (of there any) or can please somebody list the full set of supporting documents I should bring with me to the interview? 

Thanks in advance

It is okay, they have your marriage certificate, just take  it with you during interview. 

Thank you, are you referring to the previous submissions?

Did you file online?  If so, you can upload more documents at any time

Thank you for your reply, but, unfortunately no, I mailed my case. 

Hey Guys, 

I submitted my N400 application (through marriage) a couple days ago. Everything seems to be included but I forgot to include my MC and my wife's birth certificate. Not sure what should I do now. 

Does anybody had the same experience?

After a long long long long wait.... Today when I've check my uscis account I can read: New Card Is Being Produced.

I cant belive it, now i have to wait to check my mailbox... 

VSC or TSC? 

Hello, I am just joining the thread due to my recent submission of N400 while I-751 is still pending. I guess it is a silly question but still: is it possible for I-751 get approval while N400 still pending? Or it has to be both at the same time?

There is a potential delay with the I751 still pending. 

It may still be a good move for you. We were ready to submit our N400 on Wednesday if we didn't see movement on our case and on the Monday the status updated to Approved. 

It's a bad idea to file now if you are planning any trips out of the country or are anxious to get that 10 year GC without delay. 

On the other hand, we are enjoying taking our vacations and any trips in the US and have no plans to travel outside of the country for the foreseeable future and as our ultimate goal is to have all of us with the same citizenship and living together as a family without constantly having to update things, mark dates for renewals and keep paying fees - you get the picture  .... we were willing to take the chance of the additional delay. 

They will not process your N400 until your I 751 is approved. Often there is a combo interview for both cases, but this doesn't work out as well for everyone and it can be anything from a moderate to lengthy delay in getting your 10 year greencard. There is a thread on this forum on Combo filing.  Lots of different experiences shared on there. 

Thank you, that's helpful. I don't worry about travel nor need my card. I thought it might get the ball rolling but I guess I might have to review the thread first. 

Hi there, I'm early April Filer to VSC, my case was transferred to the black hole (TSC) back in March. So I'm thinking to file N400 while I-751 is pending, does anybody have an experience of doing that? Any potential complications?

The same, what puzzles me is there are people who filed two months after to VSC getting approved.  I guess they pick up a random pile to process rather than in any particular order.  

I got transferred from VSC to TSC 62 days ago, since then ......  Nadda! 

 

 

I'm In the same boat with you. Feeling like a champ haha

Texas received a lot of I751 cases from Vermont in February and March. There are MANY approvals from February transfers and there have been some approvals from March transfers as well! 

So  it's moving along now.  It seems that it takes them about 2 months to take any action on the case. I’m talking about the transferred cases, so that equals to 1 year & 2 months from the initial filing.  

Thank you

Any approval by TSC yet?

Just want to share with you guys that my case just got approved!!!

 

April 10, 2018 - Case received

 

August 2018 - 18-month extension letter received

 

Then nothing. Crickets for a year. No biometrics or any notice.

 

Half an hour ago I got an email saying "We have taken an action on your case" and I logged on the website. And it's APPROVED!

 

BTW, I'm petitioning for myself after an amicable divorce, if that info helps. 

What Service Center?

It appears they are working on the batches that were transferred from Vermont on February 13th and 14th, 2019.  I believe those are February 2018 filers originally filed at Vermont.

Thank you! 

Hey, guys, does anybody know how TSC is doing? meaning what cases are getting approved, January?

we recently moved to IL too from FL 
after submitting our ar 11 , we got a letter that they are moving my case to CSC 

Thanks! How long it took to get the response? Has it been transferred from VSC or TSC?

So in another word, "Hi, Nice to meet you. My name is Parrot Uscis"

Haha. Right? Thanks for quick response.

Unlikely.  Address change does not impact your I-751 processing time or location.

Thanks, called their customer service line, all they said is "case might get transferred due to the jurisdiction change". 🤹‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Hi Team, got a major spin-off today. I had to change my address from NY location to IL (through AR-11). Does anybody know what should I expect next? My case has been transferred to TSC from VSC two weeks ago, so should I expect another transfer to CSC or NSC?

This is directly from page 4 of the N-400 instructions:

 

Early Filing. An applicant filing under the general naturalization provision (section 316(a) of the INA) may file his or
her application up to 90 days before he or she would first meet the required 5-year period of continuous residence as a
lawful permanent resident (LPR). An applicant filing as the spouse of a U.S. citizen under section 319(a) of the INA may
file up to 90 days before meeting the required 3-year period of continuous residence as an LPR. Although an applicant
may file early according to the 90-day early filing provision, the applicant is not eligible for naturalization until he or she
has reached the required 3- or 5-year period of continuous residence as an LPR. Applicants filing up to 90 days before
meeting the continuous residence requirement must still meet all other requirements for naturalization at the time of filing
Form N-400. For example, an applicant filing under section 319(a) of the INA must meet all other requirements as the
spouse of a U.S. citizen at the time of filing.

 

Is it the section 319(a) that has you worried? Do you not meet the marriage requirement?

Oh, this is very helpful, thank you! Base on that I became eligible for N-400 last month and just were thinking whether I should wait or pull the trigger. Deeply appreciate your time and help.

uscis has a calculator where you can put in your issue date of GC. It also mentions the 3 -year rule for marriage based GCs with 90 day early filing option. 

https://www.uscis.gov/forms/uscis-early-filing-calculator

Thank you, it has a bold text right down below of title of the article: 

"The information in this part ONLY relates to your time as a permanent resident if you file under Section 319(a) and 316(a) of the INA. You MUST meet all other eligibility requirements when you file."

So I guess if you are not under mentioned regulation you have to wait for the 3rd anniversary. Am I missing something?

After you complete 2 years and 9 months from the date of issue on your Conditional GC,  you become eligible to file for Citizenship.

Is this for every filer or only for military families? If so, may I request an information source where you get it from? I'm having a hard time find it.
