Hey, yes we pretty much have the same timeline. I've heard a soft case update usually happens 2 or 3 days after FP. So let's hope we see it soon. Keep me posted.

need to get the fingerprints taken again
I got my fingerprints taken on Jan 17th. Unfortunately got another letter in the mail the other day that they couldn't read out my fingerprints and that I needed to go back again on Feb 15th.
I thought that machine showed if prints were good or not. Such a waste of time.

That is too bad. Which Office?
I have to cross my fingers as my status did not change after walk-in FP... hopefully will never receive such letter.

The usual place. I don't know if we are allowed to give out exact addresses, but the same place in Manhattan where we were fingerprinted for greencard and this one.
OK. Not the one I took FP in Queens.
I guess your FP had been accepted by the machine on site when you went there on 01/17. Otherwise they have no reason to send you home.
Error might occur later.. who knows what happened... they might fail to save it or mistakenly delete it or whatever...
You should immediately walk in instead of wait until Feb.

New York City: Timeline
Shefe:
Can u please give your timeline. I mailed my N-400 on October 22 and on Nov 28, status changed to "placed in line for interview". No update after that. My interview may also be in Holtsville since my address is also Long Island. On seeing the various postings, I find they generally take 4 months. Would like to know your timeline.
Thanks

NRI107,
I am also in the same timeline as you, hopefully we should expect the IL in the next month or so, looking at some of the recent timelines..good luck. I had my GC interview in Garden City, suspect I will be advised to go there again...

Garden City doesn't exist anymore. Now its Holtsville, Long Island; LIC, Queens; and Federal Plaza (manhattan). with about 5 months to get the IL from the NOA (the day they receive your application), though i read Holtsville is longer.
You can figure out what is your USCIS Field Office by putting your ZIP Code into this website
https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=offices.type&OfficeLocator.office_type=LO
As mentioned, there are 3 USCIS Field Offices servicing New York City residents.
When I read your timeline, I realized that I might have to wait a little longer.
Based on Bigjoe's information below, may NYC introduce same day oath? They have a new naturalization ceremony room in this office.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Opens New Office in Queens
Grand Opening Marks New York City's Newest Full-Service Immigration Office
Released Jan. 20, 2012
NEW YORK—U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) today celebrated the official opening of its newest immigration field office in Queens, N.Y. USCIS Director Alejandro Mayorkas and USCIS’s New York District Director Andrea Quarantillo were joined by U.S. Rep. Carolyn Maloney (14th District, N.Y.), U.S. Rep. Joseph Crowley (7thDistrict, N.Y.) and Queens Borough President Helen Marshall for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
“Opening the Queens office furthers our effort to become a part of the community and provide services where our customers live,” Director Mayorkas said. “We are confident that this new office will improve customer service and accessibility, and create new opportunities for the Queens community to engage with our agency.”
The new office, located at 27-35 Jackson Ave., consists of waiting rooms, an Application Support Center (which offers fingerprinting and photographic services as part of the application process), a naturalization ceremony room, and interview and file rooms. The building was formerly a warehouse and has been renovated to create a modern and efficient office space. The Queens office is expected to serve about 500 people each business day. The office’s hours are 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
A portion of the new office in Queens was dedicated by USCIS employees to one of their own: former Field Office Director Gwynne K. MacPherson-Williams, who passed away in March 2011 after 38 years of distinguished public service in New York City. A plaque will be placed in the new naturalization ceremony room in her memory.
The Aviation High School Honor Guard participated in today’s ceremony by presenting the national colors and leading guests in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Approximately 100 employees transferred to the Queens office from the now-closed Garden City, Long Island, office. USCIS recently opened an additional office in Holtsville, Long Island.

Yeah, I'm thinking my Interview letter will come around April and Interview in May. I 'm pretty sure you will get the YL in the mail this week.
keep us posted
The local DO does not have the file until about a week before the interview. The file is still in TX for sure. Yellow letter is nothing important, just routine. It means that your application has been read/entered into computer for first time.
