Update. I went to my Oath Ceremony yesterday. It was about 3 hours long, of which 1.5hrs was processing. They ask you the questions you have already answered on the Oath Ceremony notice form. People who had traffic tickets etc. brought evidence that they had paid them and so forth. You should...

Thank you so much, again, Centella. I really appreciate it. These forums only work because you give your time and effort to helping people like me. becky

I apologise this may be the wrong place for this, but I'm not quite sure where else to post it. My Oath Ceremony is this Friday and soon I have a trip to Canada coming up, so I thought I would immediately head from the ceremony to the Northlake Post Office and apply for a passport. They have no...

Thanks Centella, and congratulations. My oath is 1pm thankfully, but I know there will still be a bit of a line to get into the building. I can't tell you how good it feels thinking that it'll soon be over. I don't suppose I will fully believe it until I'm holding that bit of paper! What...

Sorry, I saw this message after replying to the previous one. The USCIS is reporting that the average time is up 5.1 months from 5 months. My experience of my almost 4 year wait for a greencard was that there were always anomalies, the "lucky ones" as I also called them :-)... I'll have another...

Hi, My lawyer, who interacts with the local office fairly frequently, said that they were trying to process a backlog of cases. Since I was someone waiting for a decision (after an undecided) in the context of the conversation I took to mean that they were prioritizing clearing out this...

Hi, Just an update on my case. I was an undecided case, post interview, and I've received a decision. I've heard from my lawyers that the local office had a backlog of unresolved cases that they were committed to working down in January. Looks like I was one that they worked on, but they had...

Hi, I had an interview on 12/2, and my case was undecided. I've heard nothing from the USCIS, although the officer who interviewed me said that they just needed the supervisor to check something which she hoped to get done on the same day. Any tips on calling the customer support line. I tried...

I also got a non-decision. The Atlanta office did not give me a firm time for their decision. In fact, the officer said that even if the supervisor looked at the case today (the day of the interview) it would still get caught up in a processing delay. Afterwards my attorney said that they...

Congratulations! Wish I could say the same :-( From what I could read, expect a letter in a month or so, and with an oath date about a month later. Unless you have to have the judicial oath which sounds like a pretty lengthy delay.

I had my interview, and my case remains undecided. I've been told I'll receive a notice (with an oath date I think) at some point in the future, not before January most likely. Anyone have any experience with how long these things take... 08/13/2010 : Received Date 08/13/2010 : Priority Date...

thanks everyone, much appreciated. I am so sorry to hear about the dreadful waits,... ugh... I hope I pass the interview and I'll try not to leave without an oath date assuming I pass :-)

Hi, Have my interview 2:45pm on Thursday this week. Quite nervous! I was wondering for those of us who (hopefully in my case) pass, but can't do the same day oath since the interview appointment is so late, how long is the wait for the Oath Ceremony. I guess it's all gone pretty quickly by...

I think you only get it if you do the same day oath. If I pass my interview, this Thursday, I'll be in the same situation as you since mine's at 2:45pm. becky

I received my interview appointment (sorry, I've been so busy at work I forgot to update my status). Sadly, I got a 2:45pm appointment so I'm guessing that there's no way I'll get the same day oath. I am really disappointed. What's the average time from interview to oath date if the interview is...

Thank you. I got my YL letter today. I had traffic tickets and so I got the alarming one about "you indicated you have been arrested" that's really scary (especially as I have not been arrested). I wonder why they can't modify the letter to say "you indicated you may have been arrested." Wow...

Hi, Just received the email from the USCIS notifying me that my case had been transferred to a local office. So, I'm wondering how long it'll be before the interview appointment. Any guesses. The USCIS is reporting that the Atlanta office is N400 are taking five months, I was hoping that it was...

thank you thanks for the clarification—I always thought that it had depended on the means by which I became a PR. becky

Hi, I got my PR through employment in 2004. However, in 2003 I married a US Citizen (we were advised by my lawyer that my PR was so far long that I ought to stick with it if I could rather than switch and petition marriage-based). Today I was looking at the USCIS Naturalization Guide, and...
