Charlotte, NC - N-400 Timeline

Any news about the new Raleigh DO?

Hi folks,

I remember hearing that the new Raleigh DO was supposed to open around March 18th? Does anyone know if it has already opened? Thanks

The RTP ASC (Application Support Center) is listed on the USCIS website so that means it must be open for fingerprinting. However, there's no mention yet of the RTP field office on the USCIS website site, so that means that it's not open for interviews and other field office services. It's all in the same building, but for now just the ASC is open. The field office should open soon.
 
Bob, when i was in Charlotte, the officer asked me if i would be interested in taking my Oath in Raleigh in May! I told him that i would rather stay one more night and do it next day. That means it should be open soon.
 
things to do

This morning i went to the Social Security Administration Office and turned in my SSN card, filled out a new application as a US Citizen. They said that my new card will arrive in 2 weeks. I felt like the first day i have come to the states :) It was the same building.

Afterwards, I went to the Post Office and applied for a US Passport. The lady took my Cert. of Naturalization from me. I have no travel plans but i decided to expedite my passport just to receive my Certificate sooner :)

Before you apply for a passport, write down your naturalization number and all the info down, just in case...

Just wanted to keep you all updated.

That's great news Gatedgal. Congratulations on becoming a citizen!!
Can you update your signature with "military based expedited application" so that regular filers don't think that Charlotte DO is processing applications in 3 months. :)

Hi Gatedgal. Congratulations for being a new US Citizen

Is it really necessary to change your SS card?. What other changes need to be done after becoming a US citizen. It seems like the bureaucracy never ends.
 
Thank you guys.

Changing the SS card is a great idea because whenever you apply for something, job, or anything, they track you through your SSN and you come up as US Citizen after you have your status updated. I strongly encourage everyone to do so. And of course apply for a Passport and never ever lose your Cert. of Naturalization. (It takes 1 year to get it).
 
What's going on?!

Do you know if they are adding additional staff in TSC to expedite the interview process?

Please post if you have filed N-400 in the months of August/September/October/November 2007 and received IL.

Thanks,
Newbie001.
 
I haven't seen any regular applicants from Charlotte who filed after July 21 receive their interview letter yet.
The RTP ASC is now open , and it the DO section is scheduling interviews for May although they aren't accepting Infopass appointments yet.
 
Change of address

Hi

We just moved to a new place in charlotte and I sent out a AR-11 form with the new address.

I didnt have internet access for a while so I sent it through post, so is it the same for change of address for citizenship, I mean if they get that form, does it reflect on our citizenship application or is there any other method that I need to do to reflect it on my citizenship application.

Thanks for your help

The AR-11 changes your address on file including any pending applications you have.
 
What is happening In Charlotte??

I haven't seen any postings about new IL.
Are they (USCIS) even working? :)

Thanks,
Newbie001.
 
Jojo72 and Gatedgal, I was wondering do you guys live on base?

Because I don't and I never mentioned my husband on active duty.....so how would I get expedited processing like you guys?:confused:

So far they are treating my packet like Cat Litter..and I expect it to get worse:eek:
 
I have sat here and read so many posts. I still do not quite understand all of the immigration procedures and lingo, but I am so tired of this... I submitted my I90 last year and I still have not recieved anything from them. My GC expired and I don't know what to do. I submitted the N400 in hopes I could get a NOA so I can get a temp GC but to no avail. I really commend all of you on your patience, but I have none. I am about to lose my job here....Just tired of this...that's all.....

Don't let the bureaucracy get to you synn_r. I suggest you either call the USCIS customer service line or make an Infopass to inquire about the status of your I-90. Next, I would called the USCIS military line at 1-877-247-4645 and ask them about the status of your N-400. Frustrating as it may seem, one day you will be able to look back at this moment as a distant memory.
