Citizenship

PD: June 6-2017
Interview was scheduled today, 08-14-2018
Is there anyway to find the date of interview online before getting the actual letter?
Within how many days it would be scheduled?
Is online application faster than paper ?
Thanks in advance

hi all
Any San Fernando valley, CA Filer with PD in September 2017?
Please share your timeline
My PD is October 11, 2017, still waiting for my interview

I have received my invitation to my oath ceremony in Houston for 8/22. The only thing I received in the mail was the form N-445. Nothing else. I often read from people who were able to do either of the following right at the ceremony (actually after the ceremony, but before leaving the compound):
update SSN
register to vote
apply for a passport

Especially the latter is of my main interest. After all, this process requires some form of preparation, including bringing passport pictures. I usually do not carry those - especially recent ones - in my wallet. Should I bring some? What about the passport application form (DS-11)? Do I also have to bring that one, filled out, or are there forms available on site that I can fill out while waiting in line?

I ask because otherwise, I will schedule an appointment for that afternoon at my local post office and take care of things right there. Since my job does require international travel in the upcoming months, getting a US passport is essential for me. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hey all,
I know Denver Office has been one with few experiences shared so here is my experience.

NOTE: Some people have had faster experiences. Mine may have been long but generally it's been moving along very fast. Have patience if you feel discouraged.

NOA-07/26/2017
Biometrics-08/24/2017
Interview-08/06/2018
Oath-08/16/2018

Good luck to you all.

Yesterday I had my Naturalization test and I passed it!!!! 😊
Let me share my experience with you guys, because I know how we all want to know more details, sorry if it’s too long but it might help some of you.
My ISCIS Office: Hialeah, FL (Miami Area).
Applied: by mail, got IOE number

We received your application 04/**/2018
We scheduled your biometrics appointment 04/**/2018
We received your biometrics 04/**/2018
We scheduled your interview 06/**/2018
You attended your interview 08/13/2018
We approved your application 08/13/2018
We scheduled your naturalization ceremony 08/13/2018

I arrived to USCIS at 9:25, my interview was scheduled at 10:20. There was no line at all and I went to check in right away, but lady at front desk said that I arrived to early and I need to wait in the waiting area and she will call by my scheduled time. By the time I just set down in the waiting area, in 2 minutes my time was called and I checked-in and received my number. We went to another bigger waiting area where they called us by the number to take a photo and fingerprints. After that I waited about 5 minutes and I was called by the officer around 9:40.
She started from oath to tell the truth, English and civics. We moved on to the application. Initially, I wanted to change my name, but since reading the forum that this my cause a delay, plus I want to attend an administrative ceremony instead of judicial ceremony, I asked officer to correct my answer and leave my name as it is. We moved to employment, schools and addresses, which I memorized all the dates, addresses, zipcodes, travel dates, etc from my application just in case. For my relief she was reading them all herself from the computer to confirm them. After all the corrections/additions I made, we moved on to yes/no questions. One of the question she asked was if I ever have been arrested/stopped/cited by any law or immigration officer…… (I was prepared to say YES, meaning my traffic tickets, note I have quite a lot of them and I did NOT mention them in application, but she continued…) …except the traffic tickets. I specified if except the traffic tickets, then NO. Then we continued with yes/no question that I was kept repeating no, no, no and almost automatically said no when she already got to last part of “supporting constitution, bear arm, etc.), but I asked to repeat the question and continued with my yes, yes, yes answers. Note I got my GC through asylum, and she hasn’t asked not a single question about it.
After that, she made me sign some stuff, my corrections, and info as it will look like on the naturalization certificate. She told me that I passed civics and English, and I am recommended for approval. She said that there is an open date to take an oath on August 25, but she doesn’t know a specific time yet. She told me to wait outside and that a different officer will call me by a name and handle an oath ceremony notice with date and time. So, I was out of my interview around 10:05 am (even though my interview was scheduled at 10:20).
I waited about an hour, got my notice, and was good to go.
Today I checked my USCIS online account and noticed that yesterday my first oath ceremony note was scheduled to the same day of the interview at 10:30, then de-scheduled, and scheduled again for August 25.
So, I will officially become a citizen of United States in 2 weeks.
For now, just want to say thank you for all of you sharing your stories, advises and experiences. Good luck to you all! 😊

Paid 5/15/2017 we receive notice that interview was scheduled

Pd. 5/15/2017 Hopefully.......

My PD is 05/10/2017 (paper filing) and was waiting for N 400 interview.
I moved to Phoenix, AZ on 08/01/2018 and filed USCIS Change of Address online on 08/01/2018.

On 08/07/2018:
I received email/text notification that my address was changed and a notice was mailed to the address on file.

The real surprise !!!!
On 08/09/2018: online status changed to Interview scheduled and notice was mailed.

The real shocker !!!!!
On 08/13/2018 Phoenix, AZ: I checked my USPS mail and received two Letters from USCIS

USPS Mail Letter 1:
N400 Interview notice letter scheduled in Dallas field office for 09/12/2018 (This Letter was forwarded from Frisco, TX address to Phoenix, AZ address)

USPS Mail Letter 2:
Interview Descheduled by USCIS notice letter mailed directly to actual Phoenix, AZ address. (with the below information) and the notice also had recent Phoenix, AZ address.
"This is to advise you that, due to unforeseen circumstances, we have had to cancel the previously scheduled interview on Wednesday, September, 2018 at xx:xx am for the above applicant. We regret any incovenience this may cause.

We will advise you of any further action taken on this case, including any rescheduled interview information, under separate notice."

I am thinking my COA on 08/01/2018 triggered the above steps.

USCIS processes are sadly not in sync and the interview notice should have been either sent directly to AZ address (including AZ field office) assuming the file got transferred to Phoenix, AZ local office.
But as the interview notice/letter was scheduled for Dallas, TX they might have realized it and descheduled?

I tried to make an Info Pass appointment but no available appointments at Phoenix Field office.
Any thoughts please? What should I do next?
How long does it take to transfer the N 400 file from Dallas field office to Phoenix field office?
Will my application waiting time till now reset and start over in Phoenix?
Anyone else in the same boat when they moved to a different state?

Thank you in advance
