Hi everyone,

 

I’m not sure how many of us are in the same boat but I’ve been waiting for an interview to be scheduled for N-400 since 5 June 2024. The adjudicating office is West Palm Beach and I have a pending I-751 with a marriage based two year green card. I note that the average processing time is 8 months and I believe that only in April I can send a case inquiry. 
 

I was wondering if there is any point in calling the live USCIS agent or to just sit tight and wait. It’s so frustrating because it seems that there are lots of people getting quicker interviews.

 

Any advice or words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated! 
 

 

I'm still waiting since April 2024. My field office says 7 months (almost a year!) I applied with a pending i751.

I've called and even sent in a request to check on it. Both are still saying to wait it out that the interview should come soon.

So I'm also frustrated with you in waiting this long too. We are just stuck waiting it seems, lol

Sorry you are still waiting - I would suggest checking processing times on the N-400 for your local office here: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/  If you are outside of the processing times you can send an inquiry.  We filed around the same time as you with a pending I-751 and my husband has his citizenship.  Different field office, though, but I would still check yours.

Oh I def sent an inquiry. I actually just got it back after waiting over a month. 

It was their generic reply of we are actively reviewing your case and nothing is outstanding at this time.

So it's just waiting I suppose. I'm not too much ina rush but id like it to be over in the time it suggested for my FO(which is at 7mths - obv more than that now). /Shrugs

What I can say is, I'm not alone, there's 2 ppl on Reddit with the same status as me, same time frame, and FO who are also stuck and getting same info. One of them even contacted the elected rep. We are just assuming we are sitting together on someone's table just collecting dust haha.

Do you have pending I-751?

I do, but that shouldn't make a difference as I've found another person who also had one, and applied the same month, same FO and they are done (on Reddit). 

I know not all cases are the same. Just frustrating to see that.

I'm still waiting on mine.

Is anyone else? My FO estimate is 7mth, it's well obv over that. Ive called and only got an answer of 'its normal' and 'you should get interview soon'.

I'm from Canada, my EAD and AP and 2 year card took much less time than this to be approved and nothing is complicated about my case. I don't understandddddd!

I still haven't received an interview notice and have the ability to do an inquiry in a few weeks. Has anyone done this till now? 

I'm wondering if I should reach out to my representative for help here. I have no clue what is going on.

I think it's still under 'normal processing'. I filed mine April 21st and haven't heard anything since, and in the same situation as you in having to wait. So that's all we really can do.

I know this is March filers, but I'm also still waiting I filed April 21st under 3 year rule, and nothing yet

Is anyone else other than me waiting? 

Hopefully I can join y'all soon with being finished with all of this. I applied on April 21, and still waiting.

My office is Raleigh, and it says 7months..so that would be the 21st of November, which is today! 

So I'm hoping super soon for a interview date!

I recently just learned about this app, and I'm travelling home for Easter.
Previously it didn't let greencard holders to use the app, and now it does. I'll be travelling through the airport in Montreal, and its in their list of available airports, so thats not a worry either.

It didn't make me scan the card at all, so I was wondering what happens once I hit submit when I get to the airport going back home(USA). Mostly wondering to know if its just easier to do the regular customs line than have a hassle in the MPC line is all.

Chatted with online agent, received case number starting with IOE! Check still not cashed which is weird. Anyways, waiting on access code now! 

Where did you go to chat with someone, with Emma all I get is automated things and can never get a person. I'd like to know my IOE too.

I sent my case to Tempe so not Phoenix and I haven't heard anything but my check being cashed on the 23rd.

Has anyone elses check not been cashed yet?

 

They received our packet on the 17th and we haven't heard a single thing yet. We did forget the text/email form, so that's our fault, but it seems everyone gotten some form of mail within a few days or check cashed quickly..so just wondering.

Nvm, husband 'forgot' to tell me it was cashed last week.

Sent application: May 16th, 2023

Application received at Phoenix Lockbox: May 17, 2023

I have yet to hear anything, and my cheque hasn't been cashed yet.

Government takes forever >.>

I waited about 2 months after my interview after getting that status to receive mine. I also emailed them after the 1month mark wondering about it, and they said to wait 90 more days, so in total, they have about 120 to actually make a decision. So you just gotta wait it out.

As a sidenote, out of paranoia we did in a full I-944 package in the submission, that is probably why we did not get an RFE in early 2021.

Congrats! But about this part, you probably didn't get an RFE for it because Biden removed it a few months into the new year, and it became useless for when we all submitted it, and is now no longer needed again.

“Interview Was Completed And My Case Must Be Reviewed”
Your interview for your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, Receipt Number XXXXXX, was completed, and your case must be reviewed.
 
I had my interview in another state. me and my husband had to travel for over 15 hours to get there. I changed the address with them previously and they sent it to my old address. We told the officer that and the officer checked in the computer and confirmed that we indeed changed the address, After the interview my officer said that she needs to send everything to an officer in the state I’m in so he/she make the decision.

My I-130 is approved. 

Is there any factors that could impact some sort of delay? When I should like “okay I need to contact somebody” ?

 That ever happened to you before? 
What can I do?

I got that status, and waited about 60 days for them to finally approve it. 
I contacted USCIS around the 1month mark, and they told me to give it another 90 days, so, they probably have a max of 120days. 
You gotta just wait it out and see. And yes, it super sucks lol

from your past posts (since you dont have a timeline) looks like you applied in June, Id still give it a bit mine was about 5-6ish months, you're on the 4th month, so, keep patient!

I had that field office.
I applied for AOS in September of 2020. (ignore the k1 one on my info, it weirdly never fixed to what it should be).
I then received my bio letter on Jan. 30th 2021 with an interview date of Feb. 17th, 2021. Whether or not they're still at this speed is really up to all the covid stuff going on.

Depends on the ASC.I know someone who is in CA, who submitted in September 2020, and got their bio in like November, but is still currently waiting on their Interview. Their status is Case Ready for Interview. So, it really, really depends.

Mine was a late bio, but I got my appointment 2ish months later, but that is because I have somewhat a fast ASC.

Yeah, I live in NC, and it was $499 with any vaccinations I may have needed since I didn't have vaccination proof. It would have been about $300ish if I didn't need vaccines though.

As someone who did this last year, and now has the greencard in hand, you can totally do this if he's okay with being bored not working, or being able to leave the US until the AP comes in.

I was at the P4 stage of the whole process when Montreal embassy just closed back in March 2020. And came to visit in May, assuming by the time my trip was over (planned for August) it would be open and ready to go. I was wrong. Saw on this forum that people did AOS while and were fine -- I had no idea it was even an option at the time so I did not plan for it. So I stayed and adjusted. I told my work I was done(they kinda knew I was waiting on visa things, so was expecting it), and had my family mail most of my things to me.

For me, I had to mail Montreal to withdraw my petition (I never heard anything back though.) And the only thing that came up in the interview was he noticed I had an approved NOA1 and asked what happened, I explained it, and he was good with the reason -- it was the first time he had someone who did it so.

Update! 

So, 56 days later of my case stuck at 'Interview Has Been Completed and Case Must be Reviewed',  my greencard is being produced and has been approved!

Now I just have to wait for the mailed status, and I won't have to worry about the process for awhile.

Still hoping everyone else's case moves along faster too!

Hi all,

we had our AOS interview from my K1 visa two weeks ago, and it went pretty well. At the end the officer told me he would just have to verify that my medical was less than one year old at the time of filing (which I know it was) and then he would approve me.

Since that interview my status on the USCIS website has been sitting at "Interview was completed and my case must be reviewed". At first I thought it would change to approved as soon as the officer verified the date of my medical. After a few days I figured maybe there is no in between status from this one until card was issued, which it would surely change to within a few days. Now that almost two weeks have passed I'm starting to worry if something went wrong. Am I just overreacting? Is this the normal status before being issed a GC, and how long does it usually take to get a GC these days? My employment authorization document will expire in August, so if this status means that they really are doing some further review of my case I think I need to file for an extension soon so I don't have to quit my job. It never ends lol

I would appreciate you guys' experience with this status, is it routine or am I in some kind of post interview review process? Any idea at what point I can expect to hear something?

Thank you for your advice!

I had mine in Raleigh on May 7th, it's almost 2 months and nothing.

I sent in a service request, and they just said to wait 90more days.

Our interview went well, and the officer said a few weeks -- guess he's bad at estimates?

So I put in a service request for my status of 'interview completed and case must be reviewed' cause it's been over a month, and almost about 2 months, and they just said to wait 90days.

I talked to other people who had it at the same location, and their card was produced the same day, so I'm not sure what's up with mine if the guy said everything is good and to expect it in a few weeks...

So that's fun.. I'll let you guys know if I hear more.

Just out of curiosity, what government issued photo ID did you all take to your biometric appointment? Did any of you take just the driver's license, or did all of you take passports?

I took my passport and marriage license, since passport didn't have my married name.
