Hello All,
I have filed for US citizenship (CSC/California) on January 29, 2007. This is my "priority date", I suppose. My fingerprints were completed in Phoenix some time in February. Since then, I have been visiting the USCIS website regularly to check on any updates to my case as well as current "processing dates" for Phoenix. As of June 15, 2007 the website states that they were "processing" cases filed on November 12, 2006. Does this mean those applicants who filed on or before November 12 have been already interviewed and are awaiting for the oath letter? Or does it mean they have received their interview letters at around mid-June? What does the "processing date" really mean? The reason I am asking is because I know at least 2 people here in Phoenix who filed for citizenship a couple of months after I did, and one of them has been already interviewed while the other received an interview letter. I am still waiting for my interview letter as of today. Is the "processing date" telling me I should wait a little longer to contact them, or is it time for me to get an Infopass? Any opinions will be highly appreciated.
