N-400 Timelines in New Jersey

[Anna_nj]

Good day everyone,

I am currently waiting for my citizenship interview for over 15 months since I submitted my N-400 form in New Jersey.
I got my bio-metrics done and received the Form I-797 C in November, 2018.
After waiting for 15 months, I tried to request an inquire, but the website (USCIS.gov) stated that they cannot currently process it because my application is within the posted processing time. However, in their website they state that the normal time with 15 months being the top.
I contacted my lawyer and he advised me to keep trying to service request an inquire until they respond.

Does anyone have information or experience with N-400 wait time for Newark? I have filed and I am past 15 months with no interview. Thank you.
