Sounds like our OP was used as a means to bypass the very long wait for a petition for a sibling. 

Updated @Jesse28's timeline. I changed it to RED now that you're a US citizen. Wow! Only 2 months from application to oath ceremony. So fast! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Hopefully we both hear some good news soon!

Hey! I'm online filer, and mine hasn't move yet since biometric is done. I don't think filing online or mail has to do with the processing time in my opinion.  Just hang in there!!

Just checked, and the letter just came appeared: it's set for 12/19/17. Wish us luck. My wife's already been studying for the exam for the last month or so.
 
Good luck to everyone else in Chicagoland!

We live in Chicago, and my wife filed online in September. Her biometrics were last month, and we just received notice today that her interview has been scheduled. We'll let everyone know when we get the interview letter to see when it's actually scheduled.

I just want to thank the visajourney community for helping us to get through all the questions/confusions and etc.... After almost 5 years and many processes going from K1 to Citizenship Naturalization my wife became a US citizen last week  We would have not been able to this without you Thank you and GOOD LUCK to anyone
 
Now just like everyone else here I will be able to share my experience and help anyone who needs it YAY
 
THANK YOU AGAIN
  

My Oath Ceremony is scheduled for this Monday in Chicago ... I'm almost done !!

I actually forgot to ask her. I was just happy I was approved  
 
i saw people who were December Filers who were having interviews before me so I have to believe my background check must have took longer or My file ended up at the bottom of a pile on somehows desk.
 
i will say that the interview was very smooth for me. My interview was scheduled for 10:15am and I arrived to the building at 9:55am (they tell you on the interview letter to only arrive 30 mins before your scheduled interview). There is a nice cafe about a block from the Federal Building where we had a nice breakfast. Was a little pricey but nice to relax before the interview.
 
when we arrived there was a long line to check in so by the time we got through the line it was 10:11am (I remember the exact time as its printed on the slip they give you). We sat down and right at 10:15am they called my number.
 
the agent had me aware to tell the truth etc. She then took my picture and finger prints to confirm my identity. Right after that we went into the questions. I got the first 6 right so we moved on to the next step. She handed me a piece of paper with a sentence on it and I had to read it back to her. The sentence was "when do we celebrate Columbus Day". She told me that I didn't need to know the answer as she was going to tell me the answer and I had to write the answer down on a piece of paper she handed me. She had me write "We celebrate Columbus Day in October".
 
Next we went through every question on my N400 that was in her file. Every one of the Yes/No questions to make sure I answered them the same. She asked if I had been out of the country since I submitted my N400 which I had, so I told her the dates.
 
she then told me that she was recommending me for approval and that I will receive a notice in the mail for my Oath Cerimony. She said it could take as long as 60 days and I might only get a week or two notice.
 
when I returned to the waiting room it was 10:45am so it was only a total of 30 mins.

Congratulations! When did you receive the notification? 

This is so exciting indeed! Congrats again

Omg, we are complete twins with this process. Not only we did bio simultaneously, all of the above happen to me at the same time. About 2 house ago I got this update email, that N400 bio was accepted, previously we are actively reviewing your case. Then I was like, yeah right, let's wait another year. 
Then about 40 minutes ago I got text about status change again, and in the email it said my interview is scheduled!!Not in line, but SCHEDULED!! I'm shocked!!!! There is still no update on N400 profile, still stuck in we are actively blah blah.... so I won't be surprised if they schedule interview for my bday, December 12 or my GC anniversary, December 10, lol!!!!
Fingers crossed no updates on GC, and we will avoid it as a whole!
Freaking exciting!

We are all from chi,  you are right!! Fun group we should all meet up once it's done🍷🍷🍷
I have not heard anything of similar situations yet , let's keep let fingers crossed and study for the rest I guess🤣

Congrats to our Chicago filers! So good to see people's cases moving forward. Y'all better start studying coz it looks like November and December are going to be busy months for most of us. 
 
 

Hello all, 
 
I had my interview yesterday and my application approved. The USCI website was updated today showing that on Nov. 3 my application was approved and that my oath date has been scheduled. I was assigned to a much smaller field office, previous one was Los Angeles location for ROC, which could partly be why my case moved a lot faster than most and I filed on the 5-year residency. 
 
I checked-in 15-20 minutes before my appointment. I'm not sure what time my IO called me in because I turned my phone off but it had to be 5-10 minutes after my appointment time since a new TV program on CNN had just started. My IO was very nice and chatty which was a relief since I'm not a small talk type of person lol. My interview lasted about 50 minutes, but I think that was because she accidentally restarted her computer before she called me in so she had to set that up for a bit.
 
IO asked for my GC and ID so she can scan into the system then she asked about my last name change. Because her system was still not up fully she said if I had submitted documents showing my name change. I told her yes and that I actually had uploaded several documents more than once because the online system would't let me delete them. She finally had my application up and confirmed the times I had submitted each document lol. A little after she started testing me on reading first and then writing. Because I was a tad bit nervous I accidentally omitted the line in the letter "i", only putting the period on the word. She looked at it and asked if that was correct or if there was something missing. I quickly looked at it and corrected it. Yikes!!! We then moved to questions and I got all first 6 correct so she stopped there. She said that I had passed the difficult part of the testing, which left me wondering what else was there for her to test me on.
 
After a few minutes of small talk and other computer stuff she started to review my N-400. She briefly reviewed each part and had to fix certain portions of my application were instead of putting "To Present" on certain dates the online system automatically put the date I submitted my application, Sept. 12. After reviewing all the personal information portion she paused for a bit and started to ask me the Yes/No questions in Part 12 of the application, including questions 45-50. We finished and she had me sign on a decisive similar to an iPad to confirm my information was correct and that I approved the changes made. She looked at her computer screen and blurred out that there were no other issues, printed something and in a nonchalant manner said that she was recommending or approving my application, I can't remember, and that in the paper she was printing it would say "congratulations..." She then handed me my approval form and went over details about the oath ceremony date, which surprisingly will be in a couple of weeks. She told me she was to informed that days applicants who were approved that they would be taking their oath in LA on November 16th. She closed my file and placed it behind her and ended the interview. I had a question for her about some stuff which reminded her that she had to write something in my file lol. And that was that! 
 
On a side note, between our small talks she mentioned that yesterday she was doing July paper applications (she didn't specify if those were interviews or reviews) and today all seemed be online filers. That they, not sure if she meant her office or all field offices, were trying to balance paper and online filers. I blurred out "oh is that why my application moved a lot faster" but she didn't say yes or no or continue to provide more information. I didn't want to pry too much either because I just wanted to continue the interview and be done with it. 

Sounds like it's time to lawyer up in case they decide to revoke the benefits (i.e. green card) obtained via the misrepresentation and it goes to immigration court. While it was a long time ago, it sounds like your past violation is catching up with you.

You should get in in 7-10 days.

I think, she meant that she lift the condition in september 2010
