    We did the oath ceremony this morning, and now my wife can call herself a US citizen! Such a relief given the backdrop of heavily increased immigration enforcement. N400 process took only 2.5 months, which was fantastic especially since she’s pregnant and the normal processing timeline would have put her interview/oath right around our baby’s due date.

    LPR wife did the interview today and she passed, officer scheduled her oath ceremony at one week later. Easy, 10 minutes, officer allowed me in so I sat behind them. He was polite and kind, but also looked a bit sleepy. Wife was bit nervous that she misspoke our address, but the officer repeated it to her and asked her to confirm it. Also, when she mentioned being pregnant when asked about kids, he had her sign an addendum to the N-400 form to capture that “new” information. He printed out the approval and wrote the oath date and time, and instructed us to go back to the reception desk and get the N-445 form to fill out before the oath. So close to being done with this.

    Interview scheduled July 19! I'm shocked, was thinking it wouldn't be until autumn. Interestingly, it's on a Saturday. Do they also have oath ceremonies on Saturdays? Our case also started with IOE9 if that makes a difference.

    That is fast! We applied a few weeks before you did. Already went to the biometrics appointment, and hoping to hear back soon.

    Just uploaded our corrected deed with my LPR wife's full legal name (along with the original one with her partial name appended in the same PDF). For those of you who haven't followed my threads, the context is when we closed on our house almost 3 years ago, we only put down part of her name instead of the full name. I didn't think anything of it at the time (I know I know, we were caught up in the excitement) but when we were redoing our wills, I got worried about it being a problem so we got a lawyer to get us a corrected deed with her full name. So I uploaded both for max transparency Noticed that our estimated ETA is 3 months. 3 days ago it was 5 months haha

    Now that some of you are getting interviews, I have a question. Did you apply up to 90 days earlier than the 3 year anniversary of your GC? I’ve been going back and forth with someone in a immigration facebook group, and he’s convinced himself that his n400 application was denied after interview because he applied 6 days earlier than the 3 year mark. I told him that’s not true, but he’s digging in lol. I also recommended he appeal or get a lawyer to help him. Anyone else getting a hard time because they applied too early but well within the allowed 90 day window?

    Sorry, what is meant by a “combo” interview?

    same, bio was scheduled according to egov. Which was fast. Don’t know the date, will have to log into myuscis and check. It does say if we haven’t received the mailed notice by june 8, request it online. So it must be soon after that date

    Error is gone, read the receipt notice. Seems they will not reuse biometrics Excerpt from the receipt notice: We will schedule you for an appointment at a USCIS Application Support Center (ASC) for you to provide your fingerprints, photograph and/or signature. We will mail you a separate biometrics appointment notice with the specific date, time, and ASC location. Please wait until you receive your appointment notice before going to the ASC. I also see an "Upload Evidence" button under unsolicited evidence that seems to allow us to upload additional files to the application. Maybe we can upload our corrected deed there when we get it.

    Let's get the May 2025 party started! LPR wife just filed her N-400 application and I fed her all the evidence docs. On USCIS we got the receipt number and oddly it says "error retrieving case status" (its ALWAYS something, lol) Checked egov.uscis and it says "case was received and receipt notice was sent" Hopefully the error resolves on their end tomorrow... and that biometrics gets reused.
