Ok, thanks for your advise as it is within the letter of their directive. Nevertheless, I will instruct her to carry proof of payment just in case.

one more thing...maybe im wrong but since i had my interview they made me wait the 120 days..you had your interview in november maybe that is why they are still making you wait so they can do something within or perhaps in 120s? who knows how they work i can only guess,,but i did tell you i have a feeling i will get oath in 2 weeks i was right

Chicago, NYC (Manhattan), St. Paul MN, Philadelphia, Newark, Cleveland, Raleigh, it is like a disease spreading its wings all across. Since this guy Jonathan Scharfen left 2 months ago, looks like, nobody's home at USCIS.
Add St. Paul, MN DO to this list. I was interviewed on 11/17 but no OL yet. I was told at the end of the interview to wait 2-3 months for the OL to arrive.

WOW.... Since 10/24....??? Looks like USCIS is waiting for lots of lawsuits...
I doubt they care. Once the lawsuits start piling in, the oath letters will magically materialize as soon as the AUSA notifies the USCIS of a lawsuit.

I guess you're right. But, you know what. They should privatize USCIS and if the OBAMA campaign is right, they should fire at least half of them. You will see how quickly things turn around benefiting the public.

what i think is that they are making random people wait 120 days especially in nyc. i say random because i knew someone who had the same interview date as mine..he got his oath in a week no problems... but i had to wait 120 days...but then again no one knows how they are working with oaths or interview letters., my case to complete took 15 months

I envy those who got their oath letter the same day at 26 Fed plaza after the interview. I guess they have a senior officer who can make a decision. In my case and others, we just have to pray and hope.
About the process of suing if you don't have a decision 120 days after the interview, does anyone know if they count since the initial interview? In my case, I had a N-14 which I have to come back 2 months later to submit more documents. Do their start on my second appointment?

Thank you for the reply. rick92!
Really appreciate it.I never received any letter requesting any documents (name check or anything). So... This is good sign?! I guess my problem with this whole process right now is that there is ZERO access to the status of my case (I think this happens to lots of people too!). I called and I checked online, and there is no information other than the date they received the application. USCIS's website hasn't updated their processing time since 9/2008. I guess I just have to be patient.
Also, A friend of mine sent out the application in October 2008, and has already the interview scheduled in the beginning of February 2009..... The process seems a bit random. Some are way faster than the others. Do you think the USCIS prioritize some cases than others? What conditions would that be? Age? Financial condition? Investment?.... (can't think of anything else now...)

I'm glad that you've been reading my opinions on this site on different forums. As for contacting me in regard to your N-400 application, then I normally don't answer to PMs. It could be because I don't read them most of time, and I also think that people should post their concerns/questions over here to get more feedback regardless of how personal and specific situation someone has. Nobody knows you here personally, thus you shouldn't be worry about posting your personal and specific detail of your case. Posting your situation on the forum will not only get you more feedback but also it will help others as well who are/will be in a situation like you are in. Hope you will understand it.
Good luck...

Nobody has been able yet to pinpoint the exact reasons why, even though I believe it to be very strange the way they do it. I don't want to speculate but unless they reform it and it is clear as water, everybody will suspect that many things inside that agency are not transparent enough for the public to believe that we have a reliable immigration system.-
