Got an update
Hi Everyone,
Yesterday I got an update on my application says, We recommended that your Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, Receipt Number IOExxx, be approved.

On July 20, 2021, your case was submitted for quality review.

This is a standard process we use to ensure the quality of our decisions.

Once our quality review is done you will be scheduled for an oath ceremony.

If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

First I would like to thank God and for everyone giving me hope and advice in this forum. And for those of you who are new you can see my previous experience.
Lastly, did anyone know how long is gone take to be scheduled for oath ceremony?

N400 Clarification
Hello,
I'm seeing 2 questions in N-400 -

Question A. Have you EVER been arrested, cited, or detained by any law enforcement officer (including any immigration official or any official of the U.S. armed forces) for any reason?

Question B. Have you EVER been convicted of a crime or offense?

In my case, I've got speeding ticket of case type 'Infraction' and paid fine around $160. But confused under which question I should provide these details. Question A has citation which is correct and Question B has offense which is also correct for traffic ticket. Kindly clarify.

Thanks in advance,

Timeline for US Passport after naturalization
Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask you what was your timeline for US passport after you got your naturalization certificate? Is there a way to expedite your US Passport application if you don't have an urgent matter (i.e. travel internationally for an urgent reason)? If there are are experiences in MA that'd be more helpful, but experiences from all states are welcome!

Dose anyone here receive same response?

N400 Application
Hi N400 friends

We are very seniors ( 81+) and submitted our N400 in Feb 25 ( PD) and USCIS receipt dated 26th March, 2021. So far we have received and information for interview. Where as some who applied in May 2021, have already been interviewed and became citizens.

We do not know at what center our applications are being processed with our applications stating with IOE. I understand IOE means applications are filed electronically, actually it is not so, in our case it was a paper filing sent through Fedex. Initially the estimated time shown by myUSCIS site was 15 months, then 12 months and now 11 months. I do not know whether there will be any improvement. Because some people in their experiences indicated that they got the interview scheduled within 2 to 3 months after receipt of their applications. I do not know what criteria USCIS use for scheduling Interviews and whether there is any separate channel for seniors

Thank you

DR
We are getting frustrated with these delays. Does anyone is also experiencing similar delays

Working outside on GC before 5 years impacts your eligibility of citizenship if you fulfill all other criteria now?
I was outside the USA for 6+ months in 2015 and worked outside at that time with a GC.

After returning end of 2015, I made sure that I complete my following 5 years to show my valid permanent residence status before filing for Naturalization. So I filed 4 years and 8 months (in Aug 2020) resuming the 5 years status (as it is allowed to apply for naturalization after 4 years 6 months on second time after a break)..
N-400 needs to show last 5 years Employment (since some months of my 2015 work period falls under 5 years employment window), i showed my employment outside.
I had an interview and the USCIS officer is ok with me staying outside 6+ months in 2015 as that goes beyond last 5 years from application and he confirmed I have established my residence status on that basis. The only concern he has is me WORKING OUTSIDE ... (which is now 5 years back)... he says rest all look good. so my decision is awaited. he says he needs to deep dive... it might not be a concern at all but he needs to check.
Question is: Did anyone has such experience to get citizenship? Is it really a matter of concern after I established my residence status and worked here for following 5 years and rest all look good according to the USCIS officer? is it good to wait for his response or should I start checking for immigration lawyer?
your input will really be appreciated.
