My N400 Processing time for Atlanta
- Thread starter balshoi
- Start date
More dates
Hi all, my husband is applying to be a USC. Application was sent to the Texas Service Center, we're in Atlanta. Here are the relevant dates so far:
Application Received: October 12, 2004
Priority Date: October 15, 2004
Fingerprints: December 18, 2004
So now I guess we wait for a very long time, based on how things have been going for others. We've received no information or communication since having the fingerprints done. Would the next expected step be a letter with an interview date?
My husband was recently laid off, so we really don't have anything keeping us in Atlanta. We're considering moving back to San Diego (where we lived when he was granted permanent residency). Seems like it would be processed faster there. For that matter we could move anywhere in the country- Harlingen Texas seems to have the best processing times with a date of Dec 12, 2004!! Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Most cities in Texas are pretty quick.
You must always consider the fact that moving a file may cause other delays. So in total, it isnot so obvious that movingto texas/Colorado/Kensas will necessarily expadite your husband's citizenship...
Is there any particular reason why you are in a rush for his citizenship?
Finally, one must consider the fact that Atlanta is one of the nicest cities in the country...
Good luck,

We only moved to Atlanta 3 years ago for his job, and now that he's been laid off we don't particularly want to stay- too expensive, too much traffic, no real friends/family, etc. We don't want to stay here just waiting for his citizenship, especially if it takes a year or more! 
We've already been in ATL too long for our tastes
If we go somewhere with a fast processing time we aren't tied to living there for very long. We both want to see the country and not be stuck in one place . Do you have to be in one location for 3 months before getting naturalized?

hi, guys,
My timeline:
PD: late january, 04
FD: March, 04
Interview notice received: early 2/05
Interview: 3/22/05
after seeing PadmaG's post, i think atl processing is moving at roughly the calender speed. PadmaG's PD is about 3 wks after mine. He got his interview notice about 4 wks after me and his interview is about 4 wks after mine. I also know another person who filed 1 wk after me and received interview notice at the same time as mine. So, for those who have been waiting so long at ATL (including myself), the hope is coming. Good luck to everyone.

You must be aresident for three months before you apply. Don't try to circumvent that.
Your case is different, though, since yu have already applied. I think you just give notice of changing address and the USCIS takes care of the rest. You should check for people's experiences with moving. I think there are a number of threads taking that issue.
Good luck andtoo bad you didn't like Atlanta too much. I personally think it is great.

Not Received Interview Letter!!
My Receipt Date : Feb 2004
Fingerprint Date: Apr 2004
Have not received interview letter yet, however I know a couple people who had their receipt date and FP date a couple days ahead of me and have received their interview letters a month ago. Also noticed several folks on this thread who have a Mar 2004 receipt date and have received interview letters. How can I find out what the holdup is on my case?
Also I live in Atlanta, so sent my application to Texas Service Center, however on the USCIS website the TSC does not have processing dates for N-400 applications. Will my case be routed to the Atlanta district office?
Thanks,

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/officeProcesstimes.jsp?selectedOffice=7 It lists they are processing N-400 dates with receipt dates of Jan 2004. You should look at the Atlanta DO dates and not TSC dates.
