    Thanks @watashi  for the update.  I must admit since Ms Spotty's approval last Fall, I haven't been as keen as following the exploits of the USCIS.  I did notice at the bottom of each office there was a "Case Inquiry Date" which is now the official "don't contact us if your NOA is after this date."   I've made a comparison between that and the final monthly report from the old system. 
     

     
    I do want to say that with the implementation of this new system (especially with the lack of formal reporting period), this will likely be my final report for all the field offices.
     
    Good luck to all of you still waiting on interviews and approval!!!

    spottymax reacted to Jamaican_Gooner in My Feb 2018 Atlanta Office Naturalization Interview experience   
    I had my interview today at the Atlanta Field Office. I got there at 8 for my 8:35 interview, traffic in Atlanta in the morning is a killer so strongly recommend leaving out early. There was an oath ceremony in the morning so lots of people which made for a long line before security. I got through security and was processed at the 1st floor reception at 8:15. Around 15 persons waiting for interviews. Called back at around 8:50. total interview took around 20 minutes. I had to provide evidence as I am filing by the three year rule. I provided our IRS Tax Transcripts for the last four years, a property deed for our home in Georgia, and our mortgage statements. The evidence that we submitted before she said wasn't needed, so she didn't need to see my marriage certificate or my previous divorce decree. She had me verify my name, birth date, address, workplace, citizenship and provide my drivers license. She took a picture, had me use the fingerprint reader. She had me read a statement. The Statement was "How many Senators do we have", then she asked me to write: "We have 100 Senators".
     
    Then she started reviewing my application and in parallel asking me the civics question, that kind of th me off as she asked one civic question then went ahead with asking me to confirm things on my application. The Questions asked were:
    What is the name of the national anthem How old do citizens have to be to vote for President What is the “rule of law” What major event happened on September 11, 2001, in the United States What ocean is on the West Coast of the United States Why does the flag have 13 stripes  
    After we finished reviewing the application she had me sign and made copies of my ID and evidence. Then she said that a decision cannot yet be made about my application, that she would have to review my evidence and if all goes well then i'll get an oath letter. So the wait continues but at least now i don't have to study for anymore tests :-)

    As of yesterday, Mrs Spotty (along with 42 other people from 27 countries) became a citizen of the United States.  Even though she just missed the last election, her first order of business was to register to vote.  Passport application this weekend.
     
    As for, God willing, not having to deal with the USCIS anymore... I think Bugs Bunny sums it up best.

    USCIS released the latest data set for N400 applications yesterday for the 3rd quarter of 2017 (April 1 to June 30, 2017).  The report is very informative as it gives actual application numbers for each field office.
     
    Here is the cumulative data compared for 2016-17:
     

     
    A definite improvement of the number of applications processed over the quarter and the first drop in total pending applications.

Providence, RI (the report below has it listed as 2017, but it is 2016 and fixed on master list). 50 offices reported times of less than or equal to 1 month improvements, 38 offices reported times of greater than 1 month... Pittsburgh jumped ahead 126 days, not counting the step backwards last month.  
    As always, the master list is available here.

    spottymax got a reaction from oncoming traffic in USCIS applications seem to be taking longer now and here's why!   
    I can't speak for other applications, but I've been using this data to track naturalization data and far as that is concerned, the USCIS hardly processed any applications in the first quarter of this fiscal year (Oct to Dec 2016).  The previous quarter (July to September) they processed over 250,000 applications; the next quarter it was 130,000.

    We got a nice surprise to kickoff the weekend.  Mrs. Spotty's interview notice showed up in the mail today. (I guess all it look was for me to stop checking the update page 5-6 times a day, the interview notice was posted on the 15th.)
     
    Interview is scheduled for Sept. 20 at 11:15am.
     
    Best of luck to all the Florida and Texas Dallas/Lewisville filers

    Passed my test and interview! Was so quick and easy. I got called in 10 minutes earlier than scheduled so it was good. My questions were:
    1. What did the declaration of independence do.
    2. Name one branch or part of the govenrment.
    3. We elect a US senator for how many years.
    4. If both the President and Vice President can no longer serve, who becomes President?
    5. What does the Presidents cabinet do?
    6. How many Justices are on the Supreme court.
    And reading and writing was easy. The guy who interviewed me was very friendly and nice. I asked if i could have my oathtaking done in Lottle Rock instead of Memphis. He said sure and he made a note on my paper for that.
    Congrats to everybody who are finally graduates in this journey! To the rest, you will too! Goodluck!
    Now ill just have to wait for my oathtaking.
