Q3 (JUL-SEP) 2009 N400 Filers Tracker

Yes. Name check delays depend upon how common your name is. The hold up is in the name check by FBI and not by USCIS.
Unfortunately, there is no way to find out this information from FBI.

But a second level IO can tell you if your case is stuck with name check. I would suggest you to call them as soon as you can if you are not sure what's going on..

Thanks. CP
I have not called any body yet! Planning to wait for few more days.
Mine and wife's online status has not chaged yet after the FP notice. Yes my name is very common!! Is it a problem?

Are you saying your wife's status still has the fingerprinting status and she already received the interview letter? I say give it a few more days. You should worry if yours says "Case sent for interview" and you haven't received it, if not then yours could be still in the Name Check process...
 
Thanks again CP. I will try to call them as soon as possible the problem is I can't give a call from work.

Yes! Mimi! you are right no case status change for my wife yet and my logic is also same as your's so I am waiting for "Case sent for interview" status change for at least my wife's case.

Ha! that tells you how bad the "case status" online systems is, pretty much worthless...ugh! I'm really surprised how quick your wife got her interview letter! Congrats.
 
You know what! USCIS is kidding! Just I checked my e.mail and saw one case update e.mail from USCIS saying "Case sent for interview" I was dejected see that mail as I was expecting two mails for me and my wife. O.K. then I went to the USCIS
web page and surprised to see that both the recipt numbers saying the same message of "Case sent for interview". When last time meassage was changed I got two e.mails at the same time. How can it happen? That is USCIS!
Is the message change happens on thursdays? Because last time my message was changed on thursday also based on what I read in forums it is true for most people?

CONGRATS CPZINGA for having passed the interview.

Their system is SO messed up! it is a joke! I bet you will be getting you Interview Letter soon...if your case status is that then your name cleared already and the interview letter is on your way.
 
Rajan did your status before the "Case sent for interview" said "Request for Additional Evidence"?

Yes! I beleive that is for finger printing notice.

Finger Print Done..

Gurus,

Clarification about fingerprint. During the GC process my wife had to go for 3 rounds of FP bcoz of not clear prints.Finally case was transferred to local office and advised us to get a GOOd CONDUCT certificate from all the counties where we stayed for the last 5 years. Luckily we were staying in one county and got the certificate and submitted the same for getting the GC.
This time attendant too told that we may have to go for another round FP if any issues with FBI checking..What will be the procedure if any issues with finger prints even after going for 2 or 3 rounds of FP.

pleasea advise

Sri075, I dont know what your question is but, I can tell you that GC fingerprints and Citizenship are done separate, and you will have to go as many times as you need to go to get clear prints.
 
Hi Mimi1212

Thanks for immediate reply

My question is ..During GC process,we had FP issues even after going for 3 times and the case was transferred to local office. officer suggested to get the Good conduct certificate to get GC.we presented the same and got GC.

For citizenship what will be the process if we have similar issue. Due to hereditary reasons My wifes impressions are not that clear and howmany ever times we go for FP ,result will be same..what are the alternatives to satisfy the FBI check???

I see! well maybe you guys can talk to the person at the fingerprint appt or request an Info pass regarding this, Im sure they already know your case because they have ur A-File to check everything but I don't know anyone with this issue and if it is treat it defferently, I wish I could help you more.

I believe in this situation (after two tries) an interview is scheduled but the OP is asked to get police clearance from the county of residence (for past 5 yrs).
