Had my citizenship interview on 1/9/2023 in Baltimore Office, Maryland.  Had to wait like 2 hours after my appointment time. The officer was friendly and professional, he made me relax and did not rush or put me on edge, God bless him. Within 20 mins everything was done and dusted. Passed seamlessly, Oath ceremony scheduled for 1/24/2023.

Thank God I am through with my immigration journey. Wish all you guys good luck and a wonderful 2023!

Happy labor day. As of this morning, it is  showing 9 days.

My assumption is if 9 days run out before you receive an update you can then do a case inquiry i guess. *fingers crossed*

Yes, I will tow the line of case inquiry but hoping and praying I would not have to do that...anything/good news can drop within the next 9 days. Thank you! How many days do you have on yours?

I am sorry to hear you are still waiting for yours, hopefully you hear something soon ❤️

Applied for N-400 on 12/24/2021. Old biometrics re-used. Nothing since then. The only positive after I applied for N-400 last year December was that my 10 yrs GC was approved and sent to me in May 2022.

I just crossed 7 month this month, I applied for N400 in December 29th 2021. Got 10yrs GC in April 2022. Waiting for that interview call soon. Best of luck in your interview next month.

FO: Atlanta
N400 filed date: 12/27/2021
BioMetric Reuse: 12/28/2021
Interview scheduled: 04/30/2022
Interview Schedule: 06/14/2022 and Approved

My Interview appointment is at 11:30 AM.
I reached USCIS office at 10:30 AM and the security officials said they can allow me only 15 mins before my appointment time. So I waited outside till 11:15 AM.
Security officer checked my appointment letter,  ID and let me in. 
Once Security screening is done then I went to Check-in. The lady took my photo and both hand index finger biometrics and guided me to go to 2nd floor and wait.

I went to the second floor and waited for 2 mins and Officer showed up, asked my name, and said I will be interviewing you and follow me. 
Once we step into his room asked me to put all my stuff in the chair and took the Swear.
Asked me to sit in the chair and introduced himself and requested my appointment letter and Green Card. Checked my Green card and returned it back.

Officer said let's start with civics questions
1. What was one important thing that Abraham Lincoln did? Freed the slaves
2. During the Cold war, what was the main concern of the united states? Communism 
3. the House of Representatives has how many voting members? 435
4. Name one state that borders Mexico? Arizona
5. What is the capital of the united states? Washington, D.C.
6. there were 13 original States, Names three? Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina.

Read Sentence: What has Abraham Lincoln did?
Write Sentence: Thanksgiving is in November.

Quickly asked me if my cell phone number, and home address changed after the application filed.

He discussed my name change request.- If I want to keep the name change request or not
   Yes, I want to keep it.
Asked me to verify the Name change request and sign it.
Let's check your eligibility, and 
 1. Were you arrested anytime?
 2. Do you support the US constitution?
 3. How many marriages do you had?
 4. How many kids do you have?
 5. Do you have any outstanding taxes?

He asked me to check all the info in the tab and asked me to sign it.

He then printed a paper and handed it to me and said - I approved your case and you receive an update about your oath ceremony soon and it will be held in court due to your name change request.

Eagerly waiting for Oath ceremony date!!
 

Congratulations!!!! I applied for N400 on 12/29/2021. FO: Baltimore, MD. Biometrics reused, waiting for interview date.

I’m glad it is all going well for you! They should’ve just scheduled an interview for you since you already have an N-400 pending. Now, you’ll get a green card that you’ll probably have to turn in in a few months when you become a citizen. Whatever lol

Thank you! Looking forward to ending my immigration journey shortly with Citizenship.

Today, my I-751 status just changed to New Card is Being Produced. So happy and praise God, the wait is finally over. From YSC to NBC to New Card is Being Produced. Now I will wait for update on my N-400.

The exact same happened to our removal of conditions case six weeks after I filed for naturalization. Someone else here also had a similar experience. I both our cases, the removal of conditions was sent to the NBC for processing. I haven't had any further updates since Dec. 14, which was when my I-751 was updated to reflect that it was sent to the NBC.

I haven't heard from them since too. Let's wait for the good new soon. They will either approve the 10yrs without interview and call us in for N-400 interview or we have a combo interview.

YOU GUYS! My N400 interview got scheduled!!! Back in december they transferred by 751 to NBC for faster processing and today I got the N400 interview. 

 

Should I take my partner with me to the N400 interview? They notice does not say anything about 751, only about N400... I assume this will be a combo interview? THANKS, I CAN'T believe we are SO close to the end!!!!

Wow!!! Congrats. I think it will be a Combo interview for you, Please take your partner with you and prepare for both N-400 and I-751. On the other hand, miracle can happen, you may see your 10yrs card in the mail shortly since nothing is said about your I-751.

I filed N400 in December 2022, YSC was transferred from YSC to NBC in February 2022. I should be expecting my interview anytime April/May going by your timeline.

good luck i hope you will get interview soon.

i am worried about why my i751 didn't get transferred after i filed n400.

do you know if i751 had to be transferred first?

Where is your center for I-751. There is a big backlog in YSC,  I heard. I think my N-400 triggered the transfer so they can work on both. Some people in centers that are fast did not have their I-751 transferred, they just got approved  for I-751 and N-400 interview scheduled , RFI or had a combo interview (N-400 and I-751).

12 hours ago, Guido51 said:

hi everyone, are there anyone with status stuck at "fingerprints taken" 

 

or n400 with pending i751?

 I -751: filed November 2020, biometrics reused.

N400 filed:  Dec 2021, biometrics reused.

I-751 transferred from YSC to NBC last month(- February 2022) to speed up processing.

Waiting for next update...N 400 with pending I-751

for people i know that did this last year it takes a while when u do both at the same time, but hopefully it will be a different case for you, i feel u should hear something max 2-3 months based on my friends who did it both together

Hey, I just got this: 

Case Transferred To Another Office
On February 11, 2022, we transferred your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number YSCxxxxxxxxxx, to another office for processing and sent you a transfer notice. The notice explains why we transferred your case. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your notice by March 13, 2022, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

I think my N-400 I filed in December 2021 activated them to transfer my pending Form I-751 (since March 2021 when my fingerprints were used) to another office.

Why not file N-400?

YSC here. I filed N-400 in December 2021 with my ROC still pending. YSC is slow because of huge backlog. 

6 minutes ago, martinzl said:

YSC as well.  Filed for ROC in October 2020.  Biometrics were waived in January 2021. Figure they would not get around to her until at least this August based on the estimated processing times unless something changes. My wife wants citizenship anyway so why wait.

I wanted citizenship too, so reason I applied based on more than 3 years marriage and 3 years GC. I learnt YSC is slow with huge backlogs. I think they should transfer some cases to other centers that are faster. We just have to wait and carry on with our lives...

12 hours ago, martinzl said:

My wife went ahead and filed N-400 back in January.  She has already received the 24-month extension on her green card so she is good through the end of this year. Hopefully something will be resolved before then.

Can you tell us your service center? Mine is YSC and have been stuck since March 2021 after biometrics were taken. I applied for N-400 December 2021, in " Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS" since December 29, 2021 after biometrics were reused. I have 18months and 24 months extension letters on Green Card.
