Am I the only one who hasn't had an update yet?!

Here's my timeline..

May 28 - sent in application for N400
June 10 - Received receipt
June 14 - FB mailed
June 17 - FB lette received (July 8 date)
June 20 - Walk-in done at different ASC

July 18 - NOTHING until now. no updates, no letters.

Can I call them and ask?!
 
Diffirent ASC?

I believe this thread is for San Jose timeline only. I am not sure about the other ASC.

I've received "Testing & Interview" status update via Text & Email notification 2 days after my FP : " Your application was placed in line for interview scheduling"

I guess I am in the line for interview scheduling at this point. Good luck everyone

i'm in the san jose field office also. my FP letter said to get my fingerprints done in the Oakland ASC but I walked-in the san jose ASC.

Then I never heard back and now it's been a month! I guess I'll go infopass.
 
Just got the status updated to "Scheduled for Interview"- will probably receive the IL sometime next week!
 
My online status is "Testing and Interview". I didn't know there is a status for "Scheduled for Interview". I don't see that option/bubble on my status page.

What is the difference between these two?
 
@ Hhemc:

Are you from San Jose CA or NYC? "Scheduled for interview" email means that the interview letter is sent to the applicant. Please share when you receive the letter if you don't mind

Thank you and good luck

@P001: I believe that the online status is showing as " Testing and interview" . You'd receive 2 notification after FP :1, " case was placed for interview" ; 2, "Interview is scheduled and you'll receive the letter within 14 days" -- Hope this helps

Updating my case status

CDYINGER - I'm from the Bay Area. I had to have my biometrics taken in NYC, since I'm here on a business trip and did not want to fly to California just for that.
@P001- Yes, the online status header says "Testing and Interview." However, there are two processes that would show under this status. The first one is when you are put in line to get scheduled for the interview. The second one, is when the interview is scheduled and the Interview Letter is mailed.

Online status says FP notice mailed but not received even after more than 3 weeks!!

This is for both me and my spouse. We are in San Jose, CA.
Sent application - 6/16/2011. By priority mail to Phoenix, AZ.
USCIS email and text confirmations received: 6/21/2011
checks cashed 6/21/2011
Notice of Action received in the mail - 6/25/2011
Online status Update - FP letter mailed - 6/30/2011
Till 7/24: Have still not received the FP letter in the mail!!!

It is hard for 2 mail peices (one for me, another for my spouse) to be lost in the mail: I have been checking my mailbox thoroughly and am pretty sure they have not been delivered. Based on the timeline of other folks, it seems like my original fingerprinting apptt is either already past due, or is about to be past due.

Options for us:
1. Open an online enquiry - it won't let me open one until it has been 5 months from 6/21/2011. Ruled out.
2. Call USCIS - tried multiple times. Have been told they cannot do anything until 30 days from 6/30 (earlier I thought they said I had to wait until 30 days from 6/21) - they couldn't even tell me when my FP was scheduled for. Folks that have experience calling USCIS - kindly advise. Is there any way I can get to speak to a senior person there, and ask them to resend the FP letter?
3. Request re-scheduling my FP apptt and then hope that I will get the new FP letter in the mail. I am told that the process to request re-sched of FP is mentioned in the FP letter (which I have not received). Can any of you that have received the FP letter tell me the process for that? Is this option advisable?
4. Just walk into the San Jose office without the FP letter and ask to be fingerprinted. I don't know if they will let me - anyone has any experience with that?
5. Setup an Infopass apptt - what is it? Is it appropriate? Will it help?
6. Wait until 7/29 and then call them on 7/29 (or is it 8/1?)

Anything else I can do?
 
I finally got "Interview Scheduled" email / text message after 20 days since "Testing and Interview" status update.
