My wife received a similar email as Crazy Cat, stating I should attend the interview with my wife.

It only took my wife two weeks to get her passport after Naturalizing at the end of last November. Another vote to apply now and pay to expedite the application. She also got her naturalization certificate back three weeks after applying for her passport.

She naturalized under 319(b) or a spouse of a US citzen working abroad. She has to comply with all other requirements for naturalization as provided in part 316 of this chapter, except for those contained in § 316.2(a)(3) through (a)(6) of this chapter.  
 
We had to include a copy of my employment contract as part of the N-400 application.  
 
 
Addtionally per 319 
Alien spouse's requirement to depart abroad immediately after naturalization. An alien spouse seeking naturalization under section 319(b) of the Act must:  (1) Establish that he or she will depart to join the citizen spouse within 30 to 45 days after the date of naturalization.
 
This is why getting her a passport needs to be accomplished ASAP.  

As of today, my wife is a US citizen.  The interview was this past Monday, and the oath was today. The only reason she didn’t have a same-day oath was someone had to hit a button at the Texas Service Center.  The interview was painless, and she answered the first six questions asked.  
 
Now we need to get her a passport by January 4th as we are currently living in Europe.  
 
 
 

I 100% agree. I agree with most of you. USCIS is like a random number generator. You never know if or when your number will be called.

We received good news last night, and my wife has an interview date for late November. Does anyone know if the Boise office does same day oaths?  

A quick update. On October 17th after 683 days of the case being actively reviewed by USCIS, the status changed to case being actively studied by USCIS.  
 
I have submitted two inquiries about the case taking longer than expected (The last one on September 21st that has yet to be responded to.) and one congressional inquiry to USCIS responded with, "We have confirmed that this case remains pending for an eligibility interview when an interview slot becomes available. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will contact your constituent directly when an interview is scheduled or if additional information is requested prior to the interview."

My wife was able to renew her Idaho Driver's License for eight years with her extension letter.  The odd thing her original license expiration date was tied to her green card expiration date.  

Ours took two week but we also received an RFE at the interview 

Did they give you your SSN?  My wife also received her green card before her EAD and AP were approved.  I wasn't sure if USCIS was going to send the approval to the SS office or not.  I was going to wait a week to see if anything arrived in the mail.  

We had our interview last Thursday in Boise and the status was changed to "New Card is being Produced"  today.
 
We went through both the I 130 and I 485 during the interview.  He only asked the basic questions, how did you meet, where did you go on your first date, when did you propose, have you met his/her family.    It would have been approved on the spot if I knew the difference between divorce papers and divorce decree as submitted my divorce papers from my previous marriage.   The interviewer gave us a RFE for the divorce decree as we were leaving and I mailed it to the field office the next day.

It was as short wait.  Just received an email stating the interview has been scheduled.  Now I hope the have the correct mailing address.

First time posting.  My wife receive her biometrics appointment  letter today for the Alexandria Field office for early January.   The sad thing we changed our address from the DC area to Idaho and have the email confirmation.  Yet the letter still went to the old address.  I'm happy the letter was actually forwarded as the online status hasn't been updated since the case was received. 
 
For those that want to know her priority date is July 22nd.
