Thank you for clearing that up. I wasn't aware.
 
And I just got approved today! It was a pretty smooth process and they just wanted originals to the docs I provided at the NVC stage. Hoping they continue to dish out more interviews for you all! Good luck to everyone waiting!
 
So relieved and excited to book that final journey home to the husband. 💙

Yeah, those were the days. Even the Oath ceremony of USC used to last for an hour atleast, I was done in less than 10 minutes in Chicago. We are in a new normal so expecting a faster turnaround time. Also, the priority given to USC spouses with extra available bandwidth gonna help too.
 
Let us see how next few weeks goes. Wishing best for all.

Wow that's nice.. I guess India was under lockdown since March and US from April??? So it will not be more then 3 months long backlog....
Am hoping that for all the visas pending... about 20% will be of Immigrants...so not a very long backlog....🤞

Finally mine status updated to Approved on Friday 😀they say it will arrive by 20 Sept... Good God!!🤞
 
I am also in the queue for SSN update and OCI & Renunciation :)
 
Fellow Indians, may I ask, which is the website to learn most about OCI process? It is little confusing. I am in Chicago, so will utilize local consulate services.

Thanks Xyrstine !! I got the Welcome Mail after few hours of the post so I immediately paid the 2 fees asked at CEAC. This was wonderful to do on a Sunday. I was hoping to get this resolved in coming week, but what a relief :) ☺️
 
Best Wishes for all!! 

Happy News !!😄
 
Hubby's I-130 got approved !! Details in Timeline !!💃

Now excited to go for next levels

Thanks!!
Congrats and good luck!

Hello everyone,
 
Is there a thread on Visa Journey for Passport? Looks like after N400, the passport process is another slowwwwwww mover.

Thanks ! We really need it fast !!  

Congrats!!

Short and Sweet experience it was. Was asked to get in at 8:45a only as my scheduled time was 9:15a. Very simple oath :) Last year my friends have done amazing fun and celebration - nothing like that happened for me though. Am glad, the ceremony actually happened in all the chaotic world we are in now :) I was out around 9:25a with the cert in hand!!. Thanks to the USCIS officers for their professionalism and support.
 
The status changed to "Certificate Of Naturalization Was Issued" around 6pm only. Till then I was basking under the Chicago Sun with friends. From Oct 2019 to July 2020 is the loooooong path I went through. So happy that finally this major work is COMPLETED.
 
I want to thank Visa Journey folks for all the support and guidance provided. Please keep the same spirit in helping each other. It really matters.
Best wishes to all who are in queue - you will be done too. Congratulations to all others who are getting it finally.
 
Love!!
 

Congratulations!! Please share your experience!!
Congratulations!! Please share your experience!! Mine is on Monday....super excited!!

3rd week Jan 2020. Oath scheduled at Downtown Chicago USCIS office - 101 W Ida B. Wells Dr, Chicago, IL 60605.
