Atlanta GA - N-400 Timeline

updated signature. I can see my passport application status online as well.It's only been 2 days since I applied.Does any body know if the status on the state department web site updates on a regular basis during the process of your application or it's a standard generic message ?
 
Not sure on a regular basis; but they do update; Mine changed to something like : your passport will be sent before date: xx/xx/xxxx. I got my pp as well as PP card in 3 weeks time. They also promptly returned extra photos. naturalization certificate in a separate mail. The process was very effective

Dude, what is your entire time-line from June 7, 2010?
 
Hello Friends,

I am new to this and need some help. Please see below for my case timeline. I read through most of the thread for Atlanta timeline and some others and I consistently read people getting a yellow letter before case being transferred to local office. I just received text message and email yesterday that my case has been transferred to local office but have not received the yellow letter. I have not yet received interview letter either. Should I contact the local office or is it too early? I appreciate any help.

Thank you.

07/08/2010 - Mailed Application
07/11/2010 - Priority date
07/15/2010 - Received receipt
07/22/2010 - FP letter received scheduled for 8/11/2010
08/11/2010 - FP done as schedule
09/15/2010 - SMS and email received case being transferred to local office

Not all receive YL. You will get your IL some time in the next 2 or 3 weeks. Wait; No need to contact USCIS; it is too early. Congrats for your case getting transferred to the local office; a big huddle cleared
 
I just want to let you know that my husband and I got our interview this Wednesday, September 15th and we are now US Citizens!!! Our appointment interview was at 12:15pm. I saw in this forum that rpranesh's wife came one hour earlier and got her interview quickly. So we try also this option, we came at 11:00am, my husband got his interview at 11h30am, mine was 15mn later. We were done around noon and we were able to have the oath the same day as we really wanted. So my advice is if you have an appointment late morning or maybe at early afternoon try to come one hour earlier so you will have maybe the chance to have the oath the same day!

The interviews for us were fine like on the video on the USCIS website. I recommand to watch it because they give some good advices as to keep a copy of your naturalization application with yours answers so you can review it and be prepared for the interview.

Good luck and congratulations to all new US Citizens!

AlamSyed : I got a yellow paper asking for me to bring my ID. My husband got nothing. So don't worry about it. I'm sure you will receive something soon.

emno, you didn't update your signature but your interview has been scheduled at last? Congratulations!

As I've previously written, I had a 1:15pm interview appointment time, did not go early (I arrived at security in the building at 1:04pm), had quite a long wait before my interview and was then scheduled for oath 11 days later. So I had an extra wait and an extra trip to the USCIS office, compared with most Atlanta filers.

So ... 1:40pm appointment time doesn't look too encouraging for same-day oath, but if you are so inclined of course you could try the go-early strategy that has recently been successful for some people with interview appointments between noon and 1pm. I'm sure we all agree that the main thing is to get through the process successfully, and obtain US citizenship! In future years, I doubt I'll remember that I had an extra wait for the oath ceremony. From a long-term perspective, it doesn't seem important.

Very best of luck with your long-delayed interview!
