I see.  What time was your scheduled interview and how long did you have to wait until you actually had your interview?  My spouse also has an interview scheduled for 6/25 at the Seattle field office.

I got my ticket at 8:04 am, scheduled for 8:30am and did not sit down until 9:30am. I was not the rule, most people were called within 15 minutes of sitting down, felt a little singled out. 

The interview itself was straight forward but lasted about 20-30 minutes.

Did your spouse had to attend the interview with you?  It looks like you might not have a pending I-751, correct?

I received a 10 year green card since marriage anniversary was over 2 years at time of GC interview. My spouse came to the interview but was not needed to be present.

I thought Seattle field office is usually same day oath?

That is what I thought too but not yesterday, I got into the Seattle office around 7 30 am and there were no oath ceremonies scheduled for the day.

@Youssuf tough one, I would reschedule. It's probably better to do it now than at the last minute.

 

@jm06 congrats on having a baby and becoming a citizen on the same day! That was one busy Friday...

@mmv_1 do you have the interview letter in your Documents tab online?

 

Fingers crossed for @PhoenixNiro and @vamphog who both have their interviews scheduled tomorrow 🤞

Yes, I was given the oath ceremony appointment right after the interview and the same appointment is on the documents tab on myuscis site. 

I just completed my N400 interview in Seattle this morning. 

There were no oath ceremonies scheduled for the day in the office. At the end of my interview I was given an appointment for the oath on July 4th. However on the drive back home the status online changed from oath scheduled to 

Case Was Submitted For Quality Review Based On An Approval Recommendation

We recommended that your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, Receipt Number, be approved. On May 28, 2024, your case was submitted for quality review. This is a standard process we use to ensure the quality of our decisions. Once our quality review is done you will be scheduled for an oath ceremony. 

Hopefully this does not affect the oath ceremony previously scheduled. 

Wow, 1 Hour after my first post in here the notification that my interview was scheduled lol.

May 28th  AM Seattle

Congratulations to everyone that has been scheduled and/or completed their oath. 

I applied online on February 20th in Seattle under the 3 Year rule with anniversary date on May 20th. Still waiting... Seems like the interview notice should be coming soon.

Hi everyone! I just found this thread, and I'm a June 2019 AOS filer as well.  I had my biometrics appointment in July, but I'm still waiting for my EAD (and my I-485 status is "Case is Ready to Be Scheduled for An Interview"). Has anyone from Seattle received their EAD? Thanks!

Hi

I received mine October 1st after requesting an expedite in August.

Hi,

 We placed an expedited request for work authorization and have been asked by USCIS to fax documents to support our request.

 

They gave us a fax number in the email and we tried to send the documents to the given fax number; however, every time it gives a failed message. We tried multiple times.

 

Wanted to know the USCIS fax number from ppl who had placed an expedited request and successfully sent their documents via fax.

 

Thanks

Use the number they provided, create a good cover letter along with the supported evidence. I went through the process and it takes some time. I have seen people that get their card 2 weeks after the request. But  for me it was about a month and a half from the time of the submittal of the request to reception of the card. I got the expedite approved two weeks in but the card itself took some time. Good Luck!!

I couldn’t even get a state ID or learners permit to drive. I’m really waiting for that EAD lol, I also feel like baggage. 

I got the physical card last week, it will come soon. It seems like the USCIS processing times are inflated. It was very odd that from one week to the other the wait times doubled in almost every office of the country. 

Happy news today. Status updated this morning to "New Card is Being Produced" (EAD), it only shows on My.uscis website, no updates on the egov website.

My expedite experience started on August 9th, it got approved on August 26th and today September 25th it changed to New card is being produced. Over 45 days since the Expedite was requested. PD June 3rd

Now waiting for the card in the mail, 1-2 weeks?

How strange. I got the 'correspondence received' status prior to the 'request approved'. Hope you get it sorted

How long before "Expedite Request Approved" did you received the "correspondence received" message?

My current expedite status changed to 'Expedite Request Approved' on the 10th September just a few days after faxing over my job offer and supporting info.

 

Is my next status likely to be 'Card in Production'?

 

 

 

My status changed to "Expedite Request Approved" on August 26th. On September 9th the status changed to "Correspondence Received" (I don't know what that means) nothing has changed after that, still waiting.

Today marks the 4 month anniversary of the NOA1 for my applications. And I'm still waiting for the biometrics appointment.

 

4 months.

 

I called them August 15th to find out what was going on and when I could expect to receive the appointment.

 

"We'll respond within 30 days".

 

That time was up yesterday. Called them again today.

 

"We'll update the service request and respond within 30 days".

 

I feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall with this. Getting literally nowhere.

 

I-765 case processing date is currently April 5th 2019. By the time the next 30 day window is up, that case processing date will be close to, or have passed, my receipt date. And I'm still waiting for the first part of this entire thing to happen - the biometrics.

 

Frustrated doesn't even get close to describing how I'm feeling right now...

I completely understand. The anxiety is killing me.

Even though few people are getting their documents processed faster than "normal", I think the vast majority is on the same boat in one way or another. Be strong!

The first time I applied for the expedite was on July, it got declined after they sent an RFE. I re submitted the application on early august, a week after faxing the proof, the expedite got approved, last week I got the case update, "Correspondence was received", I have not submitted anything other than the faxed evidence on early August. I am so confused. My biometrics were done on June 24, my PD is June 3.

Anyone has experienced this?

Expedite of EAD approved 10th September. This was my second time filing, the first rejected due to no biometrics.  

 

Expedite via financial hardship. Sent proof of pending job offer. 

When did you submit the expedite request?

I submitted mine August 8th, got "expedite request approved" August 26th and  yesterday the status changed to "Correspondence Received"  

My case status changed to "Expedite Request Approved" on August 26, but yesterday my case status changed to "Correspondence Was Received And USCIS Is Reviewing It" along with an email that states:

"Your Case Status: Initial Review

On September 9, 2019, we received your correspondence for Form I765, APPLICATION FOR EMPLOYMENT AUTHORIZATION, Receipt Number XX. We are reviewing your correspondence, and will mail you a notice if we need something from you. If you move, go to x to give us your new mailing address.
During this step, USCIS initiates the background checks of the applicant/petitioner and identifies issues that may need to be addressed either during an interview or by asking the applicant/petitioner to submit additional information or documentation. USCIS reviews the applicant's/petitioner's criminal history, determines if there are national security concerns that need to be addressed, and reviews the application/petition for fraud indicators. If you have filed an I-485, I-589, I-751, N-400, I-90, I-821, I-131 or I-765, you can expect to receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints and/or photographs taken. The timing of your appointment is determined by the number of applicants ahead of you that also need a biometric appointment. We try to schedule biometric appointments as quickly as possible and in most cases you will receive your appointment notice within 30 days of submitting your application. We will send your appointment notice approximately 14 days ahead of your scheduled appointment. It is important that you keep this appointment. If absolutely necessary, you can request that your appointment be rescheduled however, please be aware that rescheduling may delay the processing of your application. Please follow the instructions on your appointment notice if you need to reschedule. Occasionally, you may receive an appointment notice to appear at an Application Support Center to have your fingerprints taken when you have filed a form other than those listed above. In these situations, you may receive your appointment notice more than 30 days after submitting your application or petition."

I did my biometrics on June 24th, has anyone received this email?

On July 17th I requested an Expedite for form 765, on July 22nd I received an email requesting for evidence, that same day the evidence was sent. On July 26 an RFIE got sent asking for my birth certificate, it was received by USCIS on Aug 9th. On Aug 18th a new expedite was submitted, an Aug 19th the fax asking for evidence, today I get an email that my expedite was approved but it does not say that the application is approved or that the card is being produced, has this happened to any of you? If so, how long until card is produced. My PD is June 3 and Biometrics June 26

Update: I got an email from USCIS stating "On 09/09/2019, you or the designated representative shown below, contacted us about your case....The status of this service request is: We received your request to expedite the decision on your application. Your case is currently under review. You will receive a decision or notice of further action shortly."

The Case Status is still Showing that the expedite got approved but two new updates are now dated as Sept 9, one that the request got assigned to an officer and the other than an email was sent to me. This update is odd since I have not contacted anyone since early August. I am concerned if there is something else that is holding the case from being expedite.
