2011 February N-400 tracker

My FP is schedule for 03/21/11 which is one month from now is sugar land, tx....
Why so late? can I just go 2 weeks eardly???? is it going to impact on my case?


Day 00: 02/05/2011 - AOS package sent via USPS express mail
Day 01: 02/06/2011 - Package Received (signed at locbok DALLAS)
Day 05: 02/10/11-Check cashed -
Day 05: 02/11/11 Email sent to me for application received and NOA has been sent to me
Day 09 02/15/11 RECEIVED NOA LETTER BY MAIL
Day 17: 02/22/11 email receiv for case update FP was sent
Day 20: 02/25/11 FP received by mail
Day 48: 03/21/11 FP date (why so late?)
 
I have a question about the processing after FP are done. Does the file get transfered to the local office for every one? The processing time for each city are different. Does priority date gives an idea as to when IL will be issued?
 
Received FP notice today. The scheduled day for biometrics is 21 days in the future.

However, that specific day creates a few complications for me. So, I am going to try an early walk-in. My local region is Dallas. The ASC is in Fort Worth, TX. Is there anyone here who has tried an early walk-in at the Fort Worth office?
 
Hi Guys thanks for your advise, I went for my FP today ASC in Sugar land schedule day was 03/21. I got it done, no question..it was fast, in- out 10min....
We will see if it make a difference in the whole process.....

I wasn't so lucky. :-/

Showed up at the ASC at 7:55 AM, after driving through office traffic for an hour and fifteen minutes. Not bad for 49 miles. The office is supposed to open at 8:00 AM. But, already, there was a line of about 10 individuals in front of me. Some people, who had an appointment at 9:00, were being asked to leave and return later. So, I was dejected while standing at the line. I noticed that there were about a dozen people inside the office already.

Expectedly, the guard at the door looked at my appointment letter, and asked me to come back on my scheduled day (which is about three weeks in the future). I pleaded with him for about a minute. He left, to talk to the "immigration officer," who was standing, working, at a counter about 15 feet away. The guard came back, and said the immigration officer said the same thing.

I asked if I could speak with the IO. He relented after a little while. But, The IO was one hard-assed SOB. He asked em what my problem was. I told him about my preplanned conference and travel. He extended his hand to ask for the appointment letter, and said he would change the appointment date, if I had a problem with March 21.

I told him I didn't want a postponement. I told him, I could wait for hours; I could come back another day this week, any time of the day he wanted, any day of the week, this week or the next. No dice. He wasn't going to give me a date before my scheduled appointment.

Eventually, I gave up. The drive back was just a shade under an hour.

That's how the ASC at Forth Worth, TX was. This is just a data point for anyone who might be considering a walk-in at that ASC.

I don't think I'll try any more early walk-ins.

I'm getting really concerned. Is there a number I can call to ask about the status of my application. I see via USPS delivery confirmation that the application was delivered on Feb 10th. It's now Mar 3. I have not received a text or email ( I did include the form for that on top of my paperwork)

I have not gotten anything in the mail and others on this forum with delivered dates after mine have already received FP notice.

I included a I-912 fee waiver as I am a retired Permanent Resident and my Social Security benefits put me below the income requirements. Has anyone else here had to use the I-912 waiver and experience a delay in processing such as this. I would have sent payment in but money is really tight these days. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi miyamiya,

Which is your District Office? Which city is your ASC in, where you were denied the walk-in FP? What were the conditions, was the place crowded? What did they exactly tell you? As I have described a bit earlier, I too was denied a walk-in FP, and I wanted to know how your situation was similar to (or not) mine.

Hey, I think so :)
Where is your local ASC?
How did you know they did early walk in's?
This is AOS not N400?
 
it's N-400 application
I just went there after reading people past experience on this blog.
It's the ASC in houston, Sugar Land
 
I did my walk-in fingerprint yesterday in Atlanta. Original date was Mar 14th.

Not a single question was asked. They asked to see my Green Card and fingerprint notice and that was it. It was around 2.30 PM in afternoon
