Citizenship

Guys, I have another quick question. I helped my wife filing for her N-400. She didn’t filed for taxes back in 2015 as she entered the US on Nov 25th 2015 as a permanent resident. As she was not working in 2015, she forgot to file for 2015 taxes. IRS also never contacted her about this issue. Is this something that needs to be taken care of before naturalization interview? I haven’t talked to my accountant yet to see if she can even file for $0 jncome for tax year 2015. All other tax returns are perfect and accurate.
Please let me know if anyone had similar experience.

I have applied after 4.5 years of obtaining by Greencard. Here is the timeline

November 18, 2019: We received your application
November 22, 2019: We scheduled your biometrics appointment
December 10, 2019: We reviewed your biometrics
August 25, 2020: We scheduled your interview
September 30, 202: Interview Date (Fairfax, VA)

Biometrics appointment was on Dec 10,2019 in Arlington, VA office. It took around 30 minutes for the whole process for me and my wife. Staff was polite and professional.
Interview is scheduled to be on September 30 th at Fairfax, VA.
Please share your experiences with this field office.

My mom has reached the time mark and she can now file for citizenship. She’s already practicing the questions and answers and familiarizing her self with those. But question is how does she apply for citizenship? What’s the process? She lives in NYC. Please help me.

Hi Guys!

I will like to share my experience with you all about my interview at USCIS Buffalo Field office. I attended the interview at about 2:15pm, officer was stern, just OK. He started with the civics, reading and writing which i passed. He then started to ask me questions based on my immigration file. He asked me if i wanted to change my name, i said no, he then asked me to confirm from the screen if my details were correct and to sign them. I did sign it. He told me he will continue to review the file and did not give me any decision, he didn't even give me any letter or notice, Is this usual?

Timeline
Jan 14, 2019- Submitted Application Online with NYC office
February 7- We reviewed you biometrics
March 24, 2020- We transferred your application to another field office(Buffalo Field office). " I moved from NYC to Buffalo In March 2020"
July 31, 2020- We scheduled your interview
August 27, 2020- You attended your interview

No new update as to whats going to happen. Anyone has idea of how long it takes them to make decisions on applications on N400 at the Buffalo Field Office???

Thank you, everyone, for sharing your experiences, they've been very helpful. Here's mine:
I attended the naturalization interview in the Dallas office on August 26th. You're allowed to enter 15 minutes before your scheduled time. At this point, there was a line outside the building. After clearing security it was already a few minutes past my interview time. Not to worry, I had a good two hours to enjoy the waiting room before being called in. I was told my A-file has gone missing. It's the file with GC and Visa history. So, no decision could be made right away. There was no estimate on how long it could take to find the file. The interviewer was professional and polite. He told me I passed the interview and once he finds my A-file he'll review it and I'll be informed. Apparently the file was found soon as the next morning I found an online notification of approval. One day later the ceremony was scheduled. The actual letter doesn't yet show online so I don't know when the ceremony will take place.

Good luck everyone!

I filed based on regular 5 years with GC. My timeline:

Please is there anybody that filed for N400 in the State of Hawai'i???? I filed exactly a year ago and up till now I have not received anything regarding an interview. It seems the Service Center in Honolulu is closed because I have even seen anyone saying anything about anything. Not even Descheduling or rescheduling due to covid.

Please anyone who filed in Hawaii should please say something so we do not feel abandoned lol

Anyone had their interview scheduled in San Francisco recently?

It seems like Phoenix applications aren’t moving at all. I see multiple people from around the country with applications that were submitted THIS YEAR and they are already being interviewed, but we applied over a year ago and haven’t heard anything at all. It’s very disheartening :-(

Greetings,

Does any of you have experience with the Portland, Or immigration office? I’ve applied for N-400 in February, at the end of March I was scheduled for biometrics but the office closed due to Covid couples of days before my appointed time. So, I’ve called and they told me that they will reschedule me immediately when they will open. The office only opened in mid July but at the end of March it said that my case completion time is in November 2020. At the beginning of August, they change it to September 2020. I’ve called at least 3 times, and I’ve got the same answer: “ I need to wait 90 days to get a response from them. As of today, I still don’t have an appointment for biometrics or interview. Do you have any suggestions of what should I do next?
Thank you
