But if she is sooo sick, why are you not living with her to help it? Sorry, but I can't think be far away from my husband if he is in this situation.
her tribe has only provides housing and health insurance . We still have car notes , insurance , phone and other bills to pay . You clearly don’t know how tough it can be for some people out there. -

I didn’t mention the word ex in my interview . That was worded wrong here . The IO wanted to know why my wife and I don’t leave together . I showed him proof that we share funds together and proof that she needs to remain at a different state else she’ll loose her health insurance . She’s very ill and her treatment could cost thousands monthly . We was lucky she’s part Native American , so her tribe pays for the insurance. We provided all that proof with doctors notes and so many other Paperwork .

I didn’t know that and IO didn’t mention that . Only asked for a reason why we don’t stay together which I told him and showed documentation to proof my point.

And it also mentioned separation for employment. Meaning it’s ok if you’re separated cuz of your job .

Did you not know about the marital union requirements? Seems fairly reasonable to assume the bold/underline below is what they were trying to establish.
https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-g-chapter-2
1. Married and Living in Marital Union
In general, all naturalization applicants filing on the basis of marriage to a U.S. citizen must continue to be the spouse of a U.S. citizen from the time of filing the naturalization application until the applicant takes the Oath of Allegiance. In addition, some spousal naturalization provisions require that the applicant “live in marital union” with his or her citizen spouse for at least 3 years immediately preceding the date of filing the naturalization application. [19] USCIS considers an applicant to “live in marital union” with his or her citizen spouse if the applicant and the citizen actually reside together.
An applicant does not meet the married and “living in marital union” requirements if:
-
The applicant is not residing with his or her U.S. citizen spouse at the time of filing or during the time in which the applicant is required to be living in marital union with the U.S. citizen spouse; or
-
The marital relationship is terminated at any time prior to taking the Oath of Allegiance.
If the applicant ceases to reside with his or her U.S. citizen spouse between the time of filing and the time at which the applicant takes the Oath of Allegiance, the officer should consider whether the applicant met the living in marital union requirement at the time of filing.
I didn’t know that and IO didn’t mention that . Only asked for a reason why we don’t stay together which I told him and showed documentation to proof my point.

USCIS seems to be naturally suspicious of gaining LPR through marriage so you are not alone in that. You're also not far from the 120-day point when you can request information using InfoPass or other means, maybe even your local congress person. The wait is nerve wracking, I'm sure, but you have avenues to inquire about your application. And hopefully you didn't accidentally say "ex" during the first interview or in written communication to give the impression of parapraxis.
I seriously don’t know why I was invited for a second interview . I only know the IO wasn’t very friendly during my first interview . She seemed very serious and only asked So many questions about my marriage . She was more relaxed when I came in for the second interview with my wife . After the second interview she said “I’m glad your wife is willing to go thru this process with you . she’s not a ghost “ She then said I’ll here back in 30 days . My wife and I have been really worried about how long this is taking .

No way around it. You are applying under the 3 yr rule, you are not living together. They don't believe something or they would not have question her the last time. Now they want a second interview and she must attend. Not going could be a straight out denial.
I would bet the first interview was not a STOKES interview being it only lasted 10 mins. But this next interview most likely will be.
We already had the second interview . The second one was like a stokes interview . I guess it lasted 10mins for each of us cuz they were convinced. It’s been 3 months and a few days since we had our interview . No word from them yet .

A Stokes interview is not common for a N400 unless there wasn't an interview at ROC, you are filing under 3 year rule and the filing is weak.
If everything matched up you should be good.
Did you already have the ROC interview?
No I didn’t have an interview . I only had an interview when I applied to adjust status . That was before I was issued a 2 year green card . Roc was approved without an interview .

Just now, Bill & Katya said:
So assuming that saying she was your "ex" was just a typo, and also that you filed under the 3 year rule, I guess they questioned whether you were actually still married. Personally, I have not heard of a Stokes style interview at the N400 stage, but I suppose if they are suspicious of the marriage, it is possible. Not sure what local office you are going through, but the delay may be simply due to processing delays there.
Did you in fact file under the 3 year rule? Also, if you did, do you have a pending I751?
Good Luck!
I had my 10 year green card before applying . Yes , I did apply based on the 3 year rule . The stokes interview was pretty brief . Lasted less than 10minutes . I really don’t know what they want or what the delay is for .

I am confused, you said your ex, are you divorced?
This is a really weird situation . I live in a different state cuz of my job . Filed for my citizenship, interview went well but decision could not be made . Two weeks later I got a mail inviting me for another interview and was told spouse must come with me . We both made it to the interview and was immediately separated and question . We answered everything correctly. I really don’t know what’s going on . My wife and I live in different states but showed proof why we don’t live together . She’s very sick and had to stay back at her home state so we can get health insurance from her native Americans tribe . We had doctors notes and letters to proof . It’s been 3 months and 6 day’s now . No status update . I’m helpless

Good evening,
Is there any news on your end?
Mine is the same, still says application transferred to another office, no document uploaded to explain why.
When I search my receipt number outside my account it still says interview was schedule.
I called USCIS today they said it might be technical issue and will be updated.
they did not give me any useful news
Thank you

From what I have read this is very common. If you had a new/junior officer, they cannot approve you on their own, they have to have a supervisor/senior officer look it over also, before approval is issued. It will be fine 🙂
Hopefully , that is the case . My online status was updated to , case transferred to another field office for review .

Had my interview today . Handed me a slip that says I passed written and history questions , but said a decision cannot be made as of yet for my application . What does that mean ?

Guys after my n400 interview . The slip I was handed says I passed my test but a decision cannot yet be made about my application. What does that mean ? I thought they give approvals after interviews .

Hi and sorry for late reply. For sure there is something going on in Fort Myers Office because they sending everyone around this area to Tampa. Well Tampa working much more faster so that is a good thing. I had my interview in Tampa and my interview was also at 7:00 AM and I was there at 6:40 AM and they opened the doors at 7 and I just wait 5-6 minutes on wait room only. After It was a grumpy lady but interview went well. She was not friendly and she had a serious mean face all the time. May be she did not get her morning coffee yet. She directly explain to me what will happen and she jump the questions. After the interview she said I passed and she said I will get an mail about Oath. She did not give me any date about Oath Ceremony, she basically said "I have no idea" about my when Oath Ceremony will happen question. Interview take place on July 30 and Oath was August 9th. Good luck for tomorrow!
My interview is on September 23rd . I’m hopefully everything works out fine .
