Yes my friend, almost there, my i751 was transferred to “another jurisdiction” on 10/12-13 and on 10/29 my interview was scheduled for December 12 so you’ll be there soon!! Remember to always check the documents online cause the notices will be there first 🎉

Ok guys this is it! I am officially a US citizen 🎉🎉🎉 oath ceremony took place at the Federal Plaza room 310 at 1 on 1/11, my husband accompanied me but was not allowed into the room, I first made a line where I provided my appointment letter signed and dated, along with my old green card and work permit, they gave me the certificate, checked that everything was correct and then was asked to go into room 300 cause 310 was full, they gave us two envelopes, one with a letter from President Biden congratulating us and the other a USCIS package with instructions on life as a citizen, passport application, national anthem, pledge of allegiance and oath of allegiance and a tiny US flag, after that an officer gave a speech from the other room which we watched on a big screen, we all said the oath in unison, they congratulated us, we cheered and clapped and off we went, they asked us if we wanted to take pictures next to a US flag to go to the second floor and we all did, I waved both of my flags 🇺🇸🇩🇴 and I’m so damn happy and proud to finally being an American, it’s been my dream for as long as I can remember and it finally happened, if anyone would know about my immigration story, they would understand how important this achievement was for me and for all of us immigrants that came to this country full of hopes and dreams that are unfolding for us all. The entire process took about maybe 1/2 hr so it was quick, I took longer dolling up lol I looked like a congresswoman 😁to all of you still waiting I wish nothing but speed and good luck with your new American lives 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 ps: I am learning the lyrics to the national anthem from that uscis pamphlet and will upload it to tiktok, will sing it better than fergie 😬 if you find it you find it 🤭 Good luck amigos 👍🏽 🍀 attached my very last USCIS update 🎉🎉

Hey guys, I noticed I didn’t update this thread however, my i751 was automatically approved after my N400 interview on 12/12, no additional interview needed, my oath ceremony is in a few days which means: I HAVE FINALLY GRADUATED FROM USCIS 🎉🇺🇸 👩🏽‍🎓🇺🇸, to anyone on this thread still waiting, best of luck 🍀🍀🍀

So happy to see everyone will start the new year closing this chapter in our lives 🎉🎉🎉🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Congratulations 🎉 As someone who waited 16 months to get my i751 approved but only cause I applied for citizenship, we’re high key glad that is over for you but low key high key jelly 😁 not having to travel internationally with an array of paperwork is amazing, id assume, I wouldn’t know 😁😁congratulations 🎉

Hey @LizM I know we filed the aos together and here we are at citizenship lol question: you said they approved your i751 at your n400 interview, did you get the 10 yr gc sent? Anybody else? No one on my threads has and I can’t find a thread, I’m asking because I know we have to give up the GCs and work permits at the oath ceremony but am wondering if they’ll send a gc to have to give it back in a few weeks?! Thanks you in advance for your responses 🙏🏽 ps: if your status online says: we mailed you the oath notice, if you go under documents it’ll be there 😉

Did you guys file at 2.9 years or at 3? Idk if it made any difference for me but I waited for the 3 year mark even though I did see ppl who had aos with me who filed at 2.9 and already had their interview and are waiting to be scheduled for oath, so this is totally random, I’m in NY though 🫠

No, he asked about the international trips I’ve taken in the last 5 years which were only two and for less than 15 days in total 💁🏽‍♀️

Thanks and I’m sorry you’re still waiting for your interview, I promise it’ll come soon ✨ my good vibes are out for you and they’re pretty powerful so receive with faith 🌚

You guys!! So I had my n400 interview yesterday, the appointment was at 10.55 am and we got there at 10.12am and by the time we were allowed in and through security it was about 10.30 ish, they called me about 5-10 ish minutes after 10:55, it was pretty light very few people, after the officer sworn me in he asked me to produce my dl, passport, social and gc, verified my info and then we did the civics test, passed, we did the reading and writing and he told me I passed, we did did the yes and no then he asked for the taxes, trips and marriage certificate just because my passport still has maiden name and said that he sees that all the time and I agreed my country makes it really hard to change your name, he actually looked through my i751 packet that was sitting on his desk (all my colored folders were in a huge folder lol), I told him my husband was out there waiting in case we needed another interview for the i751 and he said that he was approving my n400 but he didn’t process i751 so he was going to fwd to his coworker to look at it and approve it but he did want to meet my husband when we were done, he verified the info that is going to appear on my certificate, explained the oath ceremony and said that I was going to be notified as to when the oath ceremony was going to be and where, he walked me out and I called my husband over, coincidentally they grew up in the same neighborhood 🤣 and they had a little chat, shook hands we thanked him for his time and left. About 1/2 hr after we left i751, later that day the n400 went from ‘interview scheduled’ to ‘we recommend for approval’ to ‘we placed you in line for oath’ and this morning it was finally scheduled, I checked online and is in a couple weeks 🎉🎉 this road is finally closed and I’m hysterically happy 🎉🎉 I will come back to update y’all on how everything goes after citizenship and document updates like ssn, dl and finally passport 🤗 I wish you all the best of luck and a speedy process and next 4th of July we can all celebrate this great nation like true Americans 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

That would definitely be some fun small talk with the IO 😁😁 they’d probably ask you when is independence day if they’re fun enough 😁

Of course friend! Let us know if something happens after submitting a cover letter asking for a combo interview 🙏🏽 hopefully that works and you guys can be done with this soon!!
