Hi all - I heard today from a friend of mine that you can actually go to your local court and get your name changed ahead of your interview and then present the document at the interview. This way, you don't have to wait an additional few months for an oath date as you've already gone through...

Congrats!!! Thanks so much for posting. My case is also marriage-based so this is extremely helpful :) best of luck with the oath notice, hope you get it soon!

Here's my timeline: 4/8/2009 -- Priority date 4/15/2009 -- Check Cashed 4/22/2009 -- NOA Received 5/6/2009 -- Fingerprinting completed 6/20/2009 -- Yellow checklist rec'd 11/4/2009 -- Still waiting for IL (Day 210) 12/9/2009 -- LUD change email 1/20/2010 -- ID Interview is bright...

I have news to report too finally! Got a LUD change email on 12/9 and today a 2nd level IO confirmed my interview has been scheduled for 1/20! I can't believe it. Credit goes to my congressional representative for moving my case forward. No letter yet because I'm out of town for the holidays...

Just to update everyone - I called the 800# again last week and got the same response that I "need to just wait." Today I went in for an Infopass appointment and got the same response again! argh! I'm so frustrated. No one will tell me what's going on with my file and why it's delayed by so...

Thanks for the info everyone. Oddly, in my case, one officer even told me that they ALREADY HAD my A# file and weren't waiting on it. I really have no idea what is going on with my case...

By the way - all the officers, 2nd level IO's on the phone and Infopass, say the same thing: all checks are complete, no flags, you just have to wait...

Yes, I've called the 800 number multiple times and spoken to 2nd level IO's. I did that even before the Infopass. Anyway, Infopass officers have access to more information. No complications whatsoever. Straightforward marriage-based case. We are still married, never lived apart, nothing. No...

I think I have the longest wait here! 210 days as of today. I really have no idea what is delaying my case. Infopass appt officer said all the checks are complete and he's not sure what is causing the delay. He also said there are no flags on the case. My file still hasn't been transferred to...

Update Hi everyone, So after 6 months, still no interview for me. In fact, no update since the yellow checklist back in June. I keep getting conflicting information on my case. If I call the 800#, they tell me that my name check is still in process (although sometimes even they tell me it's...

Thanks everyone for the responses. I actually travelled back in April after applying and it was a non-issue. Patrickchicago, you should be fine unless you're coming up against the limit. SS

Nothing here either. I've given up at this point and am going on vacation for 2 weeks. We'll see when I get back. Good luck Misha_K!

Congrats popolka!!! I'm so excited for you! I doubt mine is coming any time soon, but thanks for the good wishes. Will keep you posted :)

Sorry not sure why your signature (India_1975) showed up as mine in that last post!

Congrats India_1975! I guess that gives us all some hope. Although, it also makes me concerned that something is wrong with my case since I did my fingerprinting before you and still no IL :( ____________________________________________ D/O Chicago 04/27/09 : Two N-400 (self and wife) mailed...

I called and they said the same thing...just to wait. Unbelievable, it's been over 2 months since my fingerprints!

Seems like people who did their fingerprinting in April got their interview letters ~1 month later. I did mine two months ago in May and haven't heard anything yet. Does anyone have the number for the Chicago DO? Is it worth calling to check on the status?

Good luck ak3130! Popolka, I'll keep you posted if I hear anything about an interview date. I hope I hear soon - I'm on hold from making any summer vacation plans...

I did fingerprints on 5/6 and just got my document checklist on 6/20. Since then I haven't heard anything about an interview date...

Just got my NOA yesterday. My DO is Chicago, but looks like the NOA is for the NBC. Anyway, we'll see...
