N400 Timeline: Houston, TEXAS

Thank you for much for answering my question regarding FP walk in. But you said that walking in for FP won't change my priority date. What is the priority date for? is it the date that determines how long you are gonna wait for an interview?

Would somebody get an interview date while he has not be cleared yet by FBI?

No (as far as I know)

For example, my friend has a priority date 7 days before me. Even though I had FP done before him (I did walk-in), my interview is still scheduled 5 days after him.

My priority date is 03/23. Still no fingerprint notice. Anyone on the same boat? Does the case status online change as soon as it's mailed?

Thanks...

Firstimmigrant,

Still no fingerprint notice for me. I noticed someone here that had their priority date 3/25 already got theirs. But no luck for me yet (priority date 3/23)

GCBoard- You should call them if you don't get the FP notice by next week.
I called USCIS and they told me that it usually takes 30 days for you to receive FP notice (I have to wait another week).

Priority Date: 4/7/2009
 
Does the houston D/O tell you about your oath date immediately after completing the interview ? Do they give you the letter right away or do they mail it ?

My interview date is on June 5th and there is oath ceremony scheduled for June 10th. So I am trying to figure out if I will know when my oath will be, immediately after the interview

thanks for the help...
 
My wife had her interview on April 27th and passed it. IO told that next oath will be on June 10th and that the oath letter will be mailed to our home address. I saw on the forum that some get to take oath the same day, however, I doubt that it is possible in Houston due to a large size of the district. Also, the procedure requires another IO to review the interviewing officer's work before the case is approved and the oath letter is issued.

Gents,

PD is 3/23 and still no FP notice. Attorney assistant called USCIS who said inquiry had been sent to service center. They advised that if we don't get biometrics in 45 days to call back. Yikes!!!! Anyone has heard this before? Not sure why my application seems to be taking so long....

Thanks,

-GCBOARD
 
GCBorad- If you don't receive the FP notice by the end of next week, then call USCIS... Ask for IO and talk to them directly.

I received my FP notice.. Appointment on 5/28 in Sugarland...
Question: Can i go for early FP appointment?

Firstimmigrant,

I will call this Friday if I don't hear anything. All of the sudden, my status online has changed. This is what it says now:

Validation Error(s)
You must correct the following error(s) before proceeding:

* Your case information is incomplete within Case Status Online. For further assistance please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283.

Any ideas? I know I am not making any errors...

-GCBoard
 
Mine changed to that same state a day after they sent the Interview letter to me...hope you are getting the same...not sure why your case is different as you didn't do your FP...did you do any FP's in the last 15 months due to some other reasons with USCIS?
