My case still at NBC?????
Hi everyone,
My timeline is:

PD: 01/30/2017
FD: 02/27/2017

And then nothing!!!!
I had an Infopass last week and I was told my case is still at NBC! For Goodness sake, it's been 6 month! I'm a female, my birth country is in Europe, so no "hot beds" here. I have clean background so I don't understand what are they looking for. The person I spoke to at the infopass told me they are doing different background checks and the good news is that my case is advancing. How would they know here at the field office what's happening at NBC?
Any ideas? Thanks!

Oath Ceremony Letter
Hello All,
When I checked my status online it says,
We placed you in line for your oath ceremony and will send you a notice for Receipt Number NBC*ZZZYYYZZ with the date, time, and location of your oath ceremony.
Its been almost a week since I saw this update and since then there is no update. How common is it? and how many does it take to get the letter from USCIS?

Best,

"We are working on your case" text message and email AFTER Oath Ceremony
Hi, I wonder if anybody else has experienced same situation. I had my oath ceremony like two weeks ago, but I keep receiving a text message and an email saying "We are working on your case. There is no updates at this time.We will notify you when your case status changes". Why do I keep receiving those notifications? When I check online on myUSCIS it says the case is closed, approved, so I don't know why do I receive those notifications.

Anybody has same experience? Thanks

Oath letter has wrong ceremony location
Received my oath letter for August 24th at Lowell auditorium MA, N 400 was approved Boston office. I checked with the auditorium they have no ceremony on that date only for the 30th, also checked with the judges office who will be officiating oath, they also said 30th only for Lowell. However there is a oath ceremony at Faneuil hall Boston on the 24th. I have made an infopass appointment to see if this can be fixed. Has anyone else had an issue with this for Lowell or Boston oath appointments?
Thanks

Final Step
Dear all, here is my progress:

Service Center: California
USCIS District Office: San Diego, CA

02/16/17- Priority Date 
03/14/17- Fingerprints Done 
04/17/17- Case in line for interview. 
06/08/17- "We have scheduled your interview" USCIS Update 
07/18/17- Interview
08/03/17- Received Oath notice
08/23/17- Oath.

Interview:
I got to the location 15 mins early. The security reviewed my interview notice letter and gave me a paper with the name of the IO and some more data. I went thru the security and sat in the waiting area. It was a large hall with about 50 people waiting. I noticed that there were at least 8 IOs that day working out of offices surrounding the central waiting hall.
I was called in about 30 mins. The IO came in, announced my name, and asked me to follow him thru a lobby into his office. I smiled and said hello to the officer and he nodded. He had me take the oath to tell the truth and asked me to sit down. He pulled my file and started going thru it. He spent close to 20 mins just going thru the documents. Many times, he paused, look concerned/confused, jumped to other folders as if trying to clarify something. All this time he didn’t speak a word- it was utter silence and as you can imagine I was getting pretty nervous.
Finally, he spoke to me:

--Where do you currently live?
--What’s your designation at your place of work?
--How long have you been working at your current job?
--Where does your wife work?
--How many bedrooms in your home?
--Who all lives in your home?
--Let me see your current lease
--Let me see your marriage certificate

And then, he went thru the application… the standard questions. He then gave me a piece of paper and asked me to read it: “When do we celebrate Columbus Day?” Once I read it, He gave me another piece of paper and asked me to write “We celebrate Columbus Day in October”. Then I realized this was the reading/writing test. My spellings are very poor and I misspelled “Colombus”. Thankfully that was not an issue. In the civics test he asked these questions:

--When do we celebrate Independence Day?
--Who was president during WW1
--Name one of the longest rivers in the United States
--Why did the pilgrims come to the US?
--Name a state bordering Mexico
--One right that only citizens have?

I answered all the six correctly. Then he gave me another document and asked me to review my info and make sure its correct. Then it was silence again for another 10 mins. Finally, he gave me a paper saying “congratulations”. He said I passed and if his recommendation is accepted, I will be invited to an oath. There was not one single smile in the interview. Zero. All in all, it was about 50 Min interview with most part in spent in silent nervousness. I’m grateful that even though my IO was not the friendliest, he forgave my spelling mistake, and he passed me. Thank you, Mr. IO.
------------------
One week later, I received an update saying I’m in line for the Oath ceremony. One more week later, Oath was scheduled and 3 days later I received the letter. My Oath is in about 20 Days. The journey is finally coming to an end. I’m thankful to all members of this community for sharing and guiding. I wish you all the very best of luck.

Documents received August 04/ 2016 ( Last year this time )
Completed my Interview on March 28/ 2017 ( Passed test decision can not be made yet {today} )
Made infoPass on July 28/2017 ( 120+ days after N-400 Interview ) and I was informed my documents had been filed electronically ( my case starts with IOE ) and system messed up and officer could not print my documents. So, my N-400 is RESCHEDULED and they do not know when and how long it takes time for me to receive the new RESCHEDULE NOTICE .
I was informed reschedule for a "SELF INTERVIEW" and when I asked what is self interview , she said the same officer interviewed me will send me a notice and she will AGAIN interview me , but no idea when and how long more, JUST WAIT .
Any advice ? Any similar experience ?
Please help !
