Detroit MI - N-400 Timeline

4 months after FP, no IL yet

Got finger print done on 11/14/2006, so far, no IL yet.

Does USCIS published N-400 processing time make any sense?
 
Did Fingerprint today

Sent N400 application to NSC - 03/02/07
Receipt & Notice Date - 03/06/07
FP Letter Received - 03/16/07
FP Completed - 03/29/07
IL Letter Received - ??
IL - ??
Oath -??
 
Detroit N400 Interview date

How long is it taking to get Interview date after finger print date??
How about Oath date from Interview date?

Thnaks:)
 
Sent my N400 via USPS certified mail and it reached NSC on 03/26/07. Checks cashed on 03/29/07, but no reciept date or notice date! I did not get any letter from NSC yet! The LIN number written on check (online Bank image) does not show up at online status check either?

Where to find LIN number on check? is it the one that is HAND written on front side of the check or printed LIN number at back side of the image? Both LIN numbers do not show online case status.

Any thoughts?

Here is a trick for you. Get the Lin from the check. Add LIN*00 or Lin*0 as appropriate and then make sure its 13 characters long. Then check on the website your status.
Reason: They put the actual number on the check and usually do not put the whole 13 digit string (althoughthey know it). The web systems need 13 characters. The N400 cases start with LIN* always
 
PunjabDaPuttar,
I tried with 13 characters long, but nothing shows up. The LIN number on my check had 7 numbers...ie LIN1234567. I added 000.ie, LIN0001234567 and still nothing. I also read on this board that for some, the online status never showed up. I am little concerned regarding not getting receipt letter. Usually from this board posting, it appear everyone got it in four days time. I guess I will have wait and see...

I Noticed mDeb had interview today. Can you please share your experience.

Relax, DChopes, chill. Your notice will arrive in a couple of days. There is a long journey ahead of you. Enjoy USCIS' ride.

It takes anywhere from week to two weeks to get the letter from NSC. You should have your letter and fp letter by This Saturday. Try LIN*00 + number on the check to see the online status. It should work..

Dude,
pay attention...7 numbers on check are correct. Do NOT check LIN0001234567. You should be checking LIN*001234567

N400 receipt numbers start from LIN* and not LIN0.

I did check as LIN*001234567 for both my wife and I. Its the same thing. I randomly checked few numbers before and after my LIN* number, same result. I will just have to wait for the reciept. I really appreciate your help here.
 
Interview Notice Letter recieved

Hello everybody,

I am posting after a long gap. I was a frequent visitor to this excellent portal during my Green Card process which was completed in 2002.

I am now processing for my and my wife's citizenship and once again this same old portal is the best place for all the information and US immigration related intricacies.

Here is my time line.

The FP appointment is at 8:00 AM. If I go there little later, will it be an issue? I need to drop my child at daycare and may get late. Any advise?

The fingerprint process is pretty informal. They do not care about exact time. I was scheduled for 10 am but got there around 9 am. I was done in 10-15 minutes and out by 9:15 am. I am certain that being late by half an hour or so would be not a big deal. People (on this forum) have in fact gone earlier than the scheduled date and got the fp done as well.
 
Thanks PunjabDaPuttar,
Since my wife and I have FP on the same day, we will take our little one to the ASC and take turns for FP. Finally, my case status is online now.

There are few interviews scheduled this month. Good luck to you all. Please share your experience when you are done.
Thank
 
My N-400 details

03/28/07 mailed to NSC
03/29/07 Received/Priority Date
04/02/07 Check cashed
04/09/07 Notice of Action letter received
04/10/07 on-line status show up

On the notice of action letter, it says "You will be notified of the date and place of your interview when you have been scheduled by the local USCIS office. You should expect to be notified within 90 days of this notice."

Does evey one else receive the same message? I haven't receive the fingerprint yet as of today. (04/10/07)
 
sorry to trouble you guys from Detroit... :)

I'm not from Detroit, but I figured this is the best to ask
this question:

Since Detroit is only across the river from Windsor,Canada,
many of you must have gone to Canada on many short
trips lasting only 2 to 5 hours.(like for shopping or
something)

Did you guys have to declare all those short trips on your
N-400 application? :confused:

Thank you for your information! :)
