Newark, NJ - N-400 Timeline

You may should expect questions about the early walk-in from both the guard and the receptionist. I was lucky to bring my international flight tickets along this morning.

Good luck!

You need some "acceptable proof" to say why you are going early.
Walk-in is for If you miss the specified date, then you can go for it after the date not for early!

Thanks for the reply..

Now the question is early FP expedite your citizenship process or it doesn't make any difference?

Is there any connection of your interview letter date and early FP? or it only depend on your notice date of your application.

Not really on both instances. Remember: Once you are DONE with FP Check + Name Check + CLAIMS 4 + Backlog + IBIS Check equals most of the time an Interview Letter.

And don't forget OATH Backlog. At least in New York.- :D
 
I tried to have the fingerprint done earlier by walk-in on 2/7. I got rejected even I did bring my flight ticket with me. I was told that they could only allow walk-in when they are not busy.

Interview/Oath Date Set

Just recieved my IL, for interview/oath on 4/23/09. My timeline is below. My status on the USCIS website is still "received and pending". Looks like they want me to bring copies and originals of all documents submitted with my N-400 application.

Does anyone know if you can/should bring your spouse on the interview/oath day?
