N400 Timeline: Houston, TEXAS

Thanks TexasResident.

So going by the trend ( 3rd Wednesday of every month ) there may be an oath ceremony on Oct 21st
 
Oath is Wednesday of September 16th. Third Wednesday...
I did get it correct, I had heard around the 9th so today someone did get an Oath letter of 16th. Sorry everyone... I had heard it wrong I guess..
 
Thanks TexasResident for sharing your success! I hope to get such a great interview too..! Enjoy the Oath!

Cases processed in the National Benefit Center, Lee Summit, MO

Anyone living in Houston and his/her case being processed in the National Benefit Center, Lee Summit, MO?

I live in Houston, TX and my case is being processed in that center. I checked in the processing times for that center and they do no have dates for N-400 applications.

How can I have a reference when my case is going to be processed?

@Help2008 - everybody's case goes to NBC first for initial processing (since we're all filing at the lockbox these days), and then it will go to the Houston DO. So just look at the dates for Houston. Good luck in your processing!
 
Passport received- Looks cool!

Congratulations firstimmigrant!! Do you like all the pictures on it as compared to the old plainer one?

*hoping to follow in your footsteps soon!*
 
I like the new passport, improved graphics. I love the "We the people" with flag background. Time to travel on US passport, booked ticket to see my mother in UK.

TexToBe- You are almost at the end of this journey, keep dreaming and all the best!
 
Can somebody please tell me How long is taking to get the FP letter for Houston residents?, I have Priority date Aug 12 as by today I haven’t received this FP Letter. I am in the August thread and most of the applicants -no from Houston- with similar date have received their FP Letter. It is something to start to worry about it? Or maybe other cities go faster? How does that work? Is Houston like Vermont Center while I was waiting for my I-751 one of the centers that takes longer in processing cases?

7.July.2009- Check cashed(there's the advantage in paying by check: u will know when they cash it)
10.July.2009- Received Notice of Action (NOA) dated 7.Jul.09
11.Aug.2009- called the 1-800 # to inquire on the delay
12.Aug.2009- Received e-mail response that I have been scheduled for initital interview[have no idea what this is]
15.Aug.2009 - Received interview letter (scheduled for 29.Sep.2009)

It is weird and I am worried that I did not receive a finger print notice.Last time I was fingerprinted was sometime in August 2008 for my 10 yr Green Card. Can anyone help?

I have heard biometrics are valid for 1 year or close by, if the process is going to be solved little bit after that, maybe that is your case. If this is your case, ask Immigration for $80 refund for your biometrics, jaja! Just kidding I do not know if you can ask for this can of things.
Just be prepared in case they say to you at the interview date you still need FP before making a desicion.
 
Hi Help2008, I think you'll get your FP notice next week, it seems to take about 3 weeks from NOA to get the FP looking at other people's timelines. My experience is PD June 12, received FP on July 7th, so I think you'll get your after Labor Day weekend...
 
Help2008: you may not get a FP notice at all if you have given USCIS your fingerprints/biometrics within the last 15 months. I am in the same boat. I got my interview letter before any fingerprint(see my timeline below). I called the help line and they told me it is not necessary; about a year ago I was fingerprinted for my 10 yr Greencard and they will use that.

Thanks Wiba2009, but not that is not my case, my last FP was May 2007. Just wait I guess...
