Hi All

Went for an infopass appt . Since interview was aug 4th ,n-14 submitted aug 25th and had not heard since today they said case approved wait 2-4 months for oath letter. Any suggestions to push for an oath letter. Would contacting senator help. I dont have any paperwork saying they have approved except what the IO told today. Any suggestions?

Hi ART2010,

I am also still waiting for my Oath Letter. I went to infopass appointment on Oct. 12. The customer service informed me that my case is on the desk of the 2nd officer. Apparently, there are always 2 officer who review your case. One is your interviewer officer, and another is 2nd opinion/reviewer officer. Since my application was submitted on March 5, which means I have been waiting for more than 6 months, she tried to call and sent emails to my case officer, so my case will be approved before October 27 (which is 2 months after my inteview). So right now, I am waiting AGAIN. My husband, who is an American citizen, was thinking about writing a letter to Barbara Boxer. I think we will do that if I don't receive anything by October 27th. Even with letter, it will take some time until we hear anything from senator office; however, it's worth a try.

Thanks smeagol12- during my previous infopass abt a month ago I was told abt the second reviewer . As mentioned all cases have this ,just wondering how much longer. Like suggested I might use local district office to enquire abt case. Does anyone know how to find out when your case was approved as in a date?
Just wondering if they use that to calculate time to process oath letter.
 
I mailed my N-400 on Oct. 4, 2010 to Phoenix lockbox, delivered on Oct. 5. My check was cashed on 10/8. I received E-mail/SMS confirming receipt of my application on 10/11 and finally an RFE online case status change on 10/15, which I hope is the fingerprint notice. The thing is that so far I haven't received anything in the mail yet, not even my NOA, which according to the case status online was mailed on Oct. 5. Is that normal? Has anybody else had a similar experience?

Thanks

Seadull,

Hubby called Nancy Pelosi's office. They can't do anything. They says that usually the reason of delay on application processing time because other agencies are reviewing it. No further explanation on who and /or why.
smeagol12 - Your husband should call your local representative. You would have a better chance through their office than Baraba B. or Diane F..
 
Interview

I have my interview coming up on Oct. 27th in SF. This is based on my marriage to a USC. I was wondering if both of us have to be present at the interview. Am I supposed to go in first and then my wife?

Not sure how its done. Any advice would be most helpful. Thanks.
 
Your wife will not have or join the interview.
However, you may want to bring as much evidence as possible about your joint life,
good luck:)

Hi everyone,

I have my interview at the SF field office on Wednesday and was wondering how strict they are about cell phones with cameras? I am Barting in from the East Bay by myself and I rather not leave my phone at home just in case I need it for anything.
