Name change during N400 and subsequent delay in Oath

Hi schynam, Are you planning to contact congressmen or wait ? I have my info pass for April 23rd. Hope something comes good out of it.

I doubt the Congressman can do anything at this time. The courts are where the hold up is. I have resigned to just wait. Good luck on the 23rd. But I hope you receive your oath letter before then. :)
 
Hey Schynam. I hope you get your oath notification soon.

I also asked for a name change and my interview was on April 16th. After the interview the IO said I would receive a letter with the date and location of the oath in 6 to 8 weeks. Well, much to my surprise (and probably much to your dismay) I got the notification letter yesterday (April 27th) and the oath is to be held on May 14th.

I live in Queens, NY by the way.

I am just telling you this so you can compare your situation to other people's. I heard somewhere some states don't have enough federal judges to handle the paper work specially now that Washington cant get anything done.

Congrats. The long wait seems to be specific to some states. I take it in stride and just have to wait.
 
Still expecting mine.

UC2012 you were placed on the Oath queue like 10 days before I was. So maybe the next batch would mine.

I will share my timeline after the oath ceremony when I am officially a US Citizen. I got approved and the process was very smooth but something may always come up and screw up everything (I am deliberately pessimistic about everything).
 
Oath ceremony done. Then went to DL office and they said some homeland security database is not updated with my details. They asked me to come back after a week or so. Went to SSN office same story.

Thanks. Yes I applied for passport. I was calling various postoffice to check if they would take walk-in passport application. Most of them said I need an appointment. Then I found one post office take walk-in and went there and applied. They took my nat. certificate and name change court document along with application, photo and payment.
