September 2009 n-400 fillers

Guys,

How long it should take to receive FP notice from the mailed date? The on line status says RFE sent on 10/06 but I did not receive it. Is there any cause to worry?


You can asnwer your question just by looking at the timelines of people who applied before you - just go to July 2009 or August 2009 thread. It would have taken less time than waiting for the responses to your question. :)

In my case, the online message said that the RFE was sent on 09/03. The email was received in the early morning of 09/05. The actual FP notice was sent on 09/08. It was received on 09/11.

In short, you have zero reasons to worry so far. Most likely you will receive the notice this week. It could be even tomorrow, but there is no guarantee for this.
 
My Timeline

DO - Raleigh/Durham
N400 Mailed - 09/11
NOA - 09/15
Priority Date - 09/17
Checks enchased - 09/18
FP Scheduled - 10/13
 
My timeline

We completed our finger printing today at Seattle. The whole process took 2 and half hours.
Does anyone have a similar experience?
How long does it take typically between the fingerprinting and the notice for interview?

Thanks.
 
FP done on Scheduled Date

FP done on scheduled date. Me and my wife were scheduled for FP at 2:00 PM. Reached there at 1:40 PM and people were very co-operative. No problems. Every thing was done for both of us in less than 20 minutes. We were out of the building before 2:00 PM. :D

NOW THE WAIT BEGINS. :eek:

You'll be fine, it's only 5 days (business days), USCIS neither USPS are not working on weekend and federal holidays. Which was Monday (Columbus Day). So it means nobody will process your case on weekend or holidays.

Interesting discussion while Fingerprinting: the office will accept earlier walk-ins, but will not send out for further processing until the designated date. Thoughts?

I dont think thats necessary true. This is because I did my FP before scheduled appointment and the second day when I called FBI line, I was told that they received my FP and they returned result to immigration office for further processing. Having said that, remember DOs handle cases differently.

But from the time you did your FP, I will expect you status to change online any day from now. No guarantees but be optimistic...

Wishing you the very best!!!
 
Just sharing my timeline...
It's been about 2 weeks after FP date, I wonder when will I receive the IL

09.05.09: Application sent to Phoenix
09.08.09: USCIS Received (Priority Date)
09.14.09: Check Cleared
09.17.09: NOA Received
09.26.09: FP Notice Received (FP date: 10/08/09-not needed)
09.28.09: FP Done (walk-in)
xx.xx.xx: IL
xx.xx.xx: ID
xx.xx.xx: Oath Letter
xx.xx.xx: Oath Date
 
will we ever get our FP note?

All, I am not sure what to think anymore....it feels like forever, and no FP notice / change of status / anything in our case. Any insight? ideas?

I can understand the way you feel but really its not been that long. Its less than a month since they receive your application and sometimes the delay you have between now and when you get your FP notice might be compensated for you in the time between your FP and interview.

Relax, take a glass of juice or red wine, whichever is your preference and see what happens between now and next weekend.

Best wishes!!!

NOW THE WAIT BEGINS. :eek:

from entering the location to leaving probably took me 20mins

Did my fingerprints on the 6th. it was scheduled for 10am. Tried to get there
for 9, but missed it slightly. Had to park 2x. Once on the street and then
inside the facility (it was inside of a shopping mall like place). Then i returned
to my car to drop off my cell because i saw all the "NO CELLPHONE" signs.
I was done before 10am.
