Hey everyone!!
My N-400 interview is in 2 days.
I am so nervous!!
Nothing weird about my case. No criminal record, just a straight laced gal, worked hard, nothing funky in my past ever.
 
Any last words of advice??
Do's and don't?
Anything you wished someone had told YOU?
 
Tia!!!
 

I was fustrated already at the point that I just let it be....actually I am a June filer for my stepson , it was actively reviewed since July 2022, it changed again to actively reviewed on Friday 05/12/2023 and today 05/15/2023 it was approved ...  Good luck to everyone that's waiting 

The same with my daughter's that I filed on July 2022. Last month it was saying 3 months ,now its 6. 

Hi!  I 130 is the form that you use. I'm doing my kids' paperwork as we speak. Best Wishes to you !

Relatives in S.Africa🤷🏽‍♂️? Send someone to get it, scan and email to you. You only need a copy anyway

What did I just read? Of course it’s not illegal. It’s not 1950s anymore 
 

Thank you!

Here is the list of the vaccine that can get you in the Philippines.

And?  If you have a real card, why does it matter when or how close they look at the vaccine proof ?   Your original questions seem a little odd to me.  I wish you good luck.  This immigration is a grueling process.  The pandemic has magnified the stress.

good luck. 
 
 
 

From the US Embassy in Manila.  https://ph.usembassy.gov/covid-19-information/#:~:text=As%20of%20February%2010%2C%202022,facility%2Dbased%20quarantine%20upon%20arrival.
 
Unvaccinated travelers are not allowed to enter the Philippines.

Your fighting this, so nope:
 
 

We haven’t yet, the only reason to do it is to be correctly classified someday when it comes to benefits.

The reason is that the SSN is very sensitive information. I'm sure that for nearly all people there was no problem with USPS delivery. But a tiny chance does exist that it will fall into the wrong hands. Why take that chance if I already have a perfectly valid card with no restriction?

Thank you to all who offered their knowledge on my N-400 journey. I got my citizenship in less than 13 months. To all of you who are on this same path I wish you all the best.

I would imagine the I 130

Thank you everyone for your replies, input, and advice. We appreciate it!

I don't think it's fair for some families that their processing time is luck of the draw on the center they get.  
  
We got our I130 approved in right around 6 months (5.5 months technically if you look at my timeline), but we got lucky with the Nebraska Service Center.  
  
This is a federal service center directly supported by federal funding. It's not right that different service centers have ridiculous processing times. What could be the excuse for that? If it's that some service centers are more impacted, shouldn't they be transferring the excessive cases to the less busy centers? Since they all do the same thing, their processing times should be normalized.  
  
I feel for those of you waiting longer than 180 days. In my opinion, as a taxpayer, that's unacceptable... 

Just filed N400 online (so much easier than all of the other paper petitions filed). 
AOS approved 4/5/2019
ROC filed 1/30/2021 - Still Pending
Case will be worked out of Charlotte office, so any advice or recent timelines would be appreciated

You didnt have anything to worry about.  I’ve attended so many interviews and after 15 years on here?  You golden.

Thank you. I thought through things the day before the interview . And  I did the same thing  when I was interviewed the first time in the Philippines (Spousal Visa ) . Answer only the question that's being asked and expound if the officer needed more info. 
 
I think I got lucky my IO has this aura of calmness which rubbed off on me *wink,  then I instantly relaxed the moment I got into her office. 

Congrats!  We just got ther citizenship back from passport processing, it comes in 2-3 weeks after the passport arrives

Hi! you are right. The IO only asked about how i got here and when.  Thank you so much. Was only asked 6 questions on the test.  Oath taking next week.

I disagree with you.
You should never volunteer information that does not help your case.
However, if you are asked about it, then you should give details.

thank you much. Yes I will do the same pay extra and do it right away after the oath taking.
