This comment is unnecessary and uncalled for. It's mean spirited and potentially hurtful. It has nothing to do with the issue discussed here or any immigration related issue. I understand that you have been helpful on many issues, and I don't know what this is for. Don't bother to reply though...

Yes, I am one of "these people". :) Do you know if Philadelphia is a DO where all naturalization oaths are judicial oaths?

I am requesting a name change on N-400. I've heard that that would cause a delay in the oath ceremony. So typically, how much delay should be expected? My DO is Philadelphia, if it makes a difference. Thanks!

I got it! It IS as WBH predicted. I got the interview letters in a week or so after LUD changed to "Testing and Interviewing". Thanks guys!

Thanks guys for the great answers (by the way, the "December tracker" thread sucks. I never got any question answered there. :mad:) It sounds to me that the LUD status change to "Testing and Interview" is a more meaningful milestone. I assume when the LUD changes the FBI check has been done and...

Thanks. That helps. It looks like it's been picking up in recent months. Would a month be a ballpark counting from yellow letter receiving date (FP done)?

Hi all, Could you share how soon you received your IL after receiving the yellow letter? My DO is Philadelphia, if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Just received a "fingerprint retaking" notice in the mail. What could have happened to the first time fingerprint? Also, does anyone know if ASC opens on this coming Monday, the Martin Luthur King Jr. Day? Does it follow the government office closing schedule?

Why are you bringing kids to the interview?

Waiting for my yellow letter. Curious - is everyone supposed to receive a yellow letter no matter what?

time between FP done date and IL date I've been trying to dig out this information, but it's not as easy as I thought. Has anyone done the research based on cases in this thread? What's the typical range of time between the date FP is done and the date you receive IL? Thanks!

Congratulations! You must feel great to have a best new year present like this. Happy New Year!

LUD changed on Dec. 29th, saying FP (I believe) notice was sent out on Dec. 24, but haven't received the notice in the mail so far (Dec. 31). Should I be concerned? How long should I wait before calling them up?

I have been in this country for 11+ years with minimal amount of traveling abroad. With families, kids, job, limited assets I have accumulated over the years, and the lifestyle I have developed all rooted in this country, it just feels like home. I think to formally accept this country as my new...

That's good to know. Thanks!

Did you check "ever arrested, cited or detained..." on your N-400? I don't think I did on mine although I did get a couple of traffic tickets over the years. Would that be a problem I need to correct now or could I correct it in the interview?
