Anyone, who got FP done 6/26 or later, got interview notice?

Hi,

Any update on interview notice? I got my FD done on 6/26 and still waiting for interview notice.
 
mka:
CS-SFO
07/05/2006: FP given
09/19/2006: Interview date

I heard that - starting from June 1st, CSC is sending interview letters only after the completion of name check. I recd this info from an Daniel Chung who posted on "name check" yahoo groups.

Since I got the interview letter, Does this mean I have completed namecheck?

I don't know, but it sounds like. I am still waiting.
Could you please keep us updated after your interview? GOOD LUCK.
 
I went to the SFO DO 2nd time today and the IO (information officer) told me that I completed my "namecheck". when I asked about my namecheck, he mentioned that I should not worry about that, but kept looking at his computer screen (I suspect changing screens) and finally said that I completed my namecheck.

when asked about "IBIS" check, he mentioned that I should not worry anything about it.

How much can I trust this IO guy?
I know that there are some cases where they found out (INFOPASS) that they finished namecheck process but were not given oath appt letters (AFTER INTERVIEW) since they didn't complete name and/or background checks

Does the Check indicate the case number?.

I just posted my N-400 application to CSC.

Do they indicate the case number on the Check sent for clearance?.

Thanks

It all sounds very encouraging!!!
A quick question: when you go to SFO DO, did you make an infopass appointment or you just stop by?

My N-400 journey is finally over. It was quite a roller coaster ride but has a happy ending. Here is my timeline:

DO: San Francisco Office/Oakland
N-400 mailed: 9/16/2005
Priority date: 9/27/2005
Fingerprint date: 10/27/2005
Infopass to query for interview status: 12/05, 2/06 - useless
Interview notice: 5/15/2006
Interview date: 7/17/2006 - Passed the test but name check pending
Oath letter received: 7/28/2006 - Surprise!!!!
Oath: 8/8/2006
Passport applied: 8/8/2006
Passport recieved(DOS Est.): 8/19/2006

The entire journey took 11 months and more than half of the time I was left in the dark. I am just glad that it is over, considering my previous unpleasant experience with INS during my green card process.

Thanks for all the support from this forum and wish you all the best luck.

Second Interview??!! Never Heard and Need Your Help

Dear All,

I do need some help here for those who has experiences or advise.

1) I submite my N400 back in Fed, 2006
2) Interviewed in June, test passed but was asked for additional evidence.
3) I did hire one attorney and submitted additional evidence in July and Aug.
4) INS asked me for another appointment at Oakland District Center for the reason of "Update inforamtion"
5) "Update information" includes: Greencard, passport, CA ID, Bankstatemen and rental agreement, which are not any problem for me

My question for all of you, my dear friends, is:

1)Is this a hint that my N400 will be approved and I will go to the oath as
I am waiting so long for?
2) Any suggestion on this appointment that I need to pay attention to?

Thank you so much and may god bless each of you!
 
Dear All,

Is there anyway that INDICATES I am picked up for "name check" or not?
In other words, how did I know I was in that batch, which process indicate
I am name checked or not?

I did call the service center, there is one officer telling me that I was name
checked in March? However, I was interviewed in June 16, and asked for additional evidence then asked for a second appointment to "update information".

So, I STILL do not know NOW am I picked up for name check?

Pls help to clarify, I am really not in the major league, seems need your help,
from anyone, would really appreciate.

San Fran. Luck

I am not sure how this happened. I was getting ready for a long and lengthy relationship with USCIS. May be I was a bit lucky for the first time or may be I became too panicky after the interview (after looking at other name case issues and time duration). Which triggered me to contact FBI via e-mail, Fax and Phone the same day of the interview instead of waiting for 120 days as the immigration officer suggested. That probably might have triggered the file being picked up from the stack. By contacting them so soon, I had nothing to loose anyway. Whatever it is, I am glad that hurdle is cleared.
