US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 April 2013 Filers
In order for you to receive the text you have to log in to your uscis.gov account, put a check mark in your NBC number and then below the NBC# change the text from "OFF" to "ON". And then, update it. I was gonna do a screenshot of my account so that you can see but their website is down right now.


 
My wife received an email, but no text. She has signed up for both. Strange...

I think you're right here as well, based on the timeline, I've noticed a pattern with filers with very early eligibility dates like yours. You guys are placed 'in line' and being scheduled for interviews way earlier than folks like me. bummer. lol

 

That's ok, you'll get yours next :). I haven't studied yet lol!

hi nimaan,

my eligibility date was 04/21/2012 that's probably why they scheduled me already.

Hi guys, i just got an email stating "On June 6, 2013, your N400, APPLICATION FOR NATURALIZATION was scheduled for interview.You will receive a notice with a time and place for your interview." Will june 6th be my interview letter date here in our timeline at visa journey? Or i have to wait until I will receive my letter with the place and time of my interview in mail?

Hi, i have account on USCIS website. I tried to add my case number but it keeps saying "the application receipt numbers must be 13 characters long". Am I using the correct receipt number? Mine starts with NBC.

If i'm not mistaken, In Line means, your local office is taking steps to schedule your interview appointment. Hence, they are putting you next in line for scheduling. When they've scheduled it, they will then send you a letter notifying you that it has been scheduled and what the time and date will be. That's the way I understand it at least:)


Thanks for adding me here:).....so, are we going to get a text or email if we are already "in line"?

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionNo Photos
No pictures....No worries. Your evidence is pretty much strong. My husband and I filed it on april 2011. We didn't include pictures because we don't like pictures. I received my card yesterday. So fast. It only took 2 months and 29 days. No interview. So, don't worry, yours is next. God bless.
By the way, regarding your insurance just make a photo copy of both insurance card where it shows your name and on the other card is his name. They can check the ID# on it. Or if you want a print out, go to your insurance website it will show on your account that your husband is under your insurance and just print that out. That's what I did.

If they see something wrong with your medical report, they will tell you and advice to undergo treatment. If you have no problem with the result, they will tell you that they will be the one to forward your passport and medical result at USEM for your upcoming interview. So. that means you passed the medical exam.

Finally I am done with my medical exam. No more paranoia......no more stress thinking about the result.
To those filers who will have their up coming medical exam, just read my experience. It might give you some insights.

DAY 1

1. Be early. I went there at 5am and I got the #54, hehehe quite late.
2. Present these to the guard.
a. Appointment letter.
b. Instruction letter from USEM (have it photocopied at 2 pcs.)
c. Passport
d. 3 pcs. 2x2 pics with your name at the back (use black pen)

3. The guard will give you 3 forms that need to be filled up (Patient Data Sheet).
4. Then pass it at the reception area where you will have a dig. pic. taking and encode it in their system.
5. You'll be asked to go to 5th floor for the payment of the Medical exam (10,027.45 this is their current currency rate).
6. After payment, you will go to next floor where vital signs, height, weight and eye test are to be made.
7. Then, go to the 3rd floor for the x-ray. Note: To those who have long hair don't forget to bring a clamp or rubber band. I have long hair and I didn't bring any hehehehe luckily someone lend me her clamp.
8. Then next is the Physical examination. You'll be asked to disrobe and wear their gown. The doctor will inpect you from general appearance, skin, genitals and #######. She will asked you to open your ####### to check if you have hemorrhoids (almoranas) or hernia or any diseases that are located in your inguinal part.
9. After that go to the 4th floor for laboratory. They will extract blood from you for HIV test and Urine for pregnancy test.
Note: You will sign a weaver, explaining why we will all undergo HIV test.
10. Then on the 2nd floor, Tuberculin skin test immunization interview will be done.
11. Now you are done with your day 1. You will pass the forms to the check-out counter. They will give you the time for your day 2. The nurse said that I will return at 9am.

DAY 2

I went their at 8am. I am earlier for 1 hour at the said time.

1. I gave my receipt to the guard and he checked my name on his master list that was encoded in their system.
2. After seeing my record on the computer he stamped my receipt "Immunization room 2nd floor."
3. So, I went there and passed my receipt to the nurse. There are chairs in the waiting area. All the applicants are waiting for their names to be called. Their mic is not that clear so you better listen carefully. I was called twice because I can't barely hear their voice. It's really vague.
4. I entered the immunization room and gave my passport to the doctor. She gave me 3 shots.
a. Anti-measles,mumps, rubella
b. Anti-Cervical cancer
c. TETANUS, DIPHTHERIA PERTUSSIS (Tdap)
5. Then I went at the ground floor (releasing section). Again, I sit their and waited for my name to be called.
6. When it was my turn. They asked me for 2 pcs. of 2x2 pics and told me to sit down and they will call me again later.
7. After 10 mins. my name was called. I was asked to sign my medical results.
NOTE: They will not give you your medical result and the passport. They will be the one to forward it to USEM.
Also, they are not giving away films for the x-ray. The x-ray result is put in a disc and the disc is labeled
with our name and birthdate. (They are more hi-tech now and faster too).
8. They only gave my vaccination document worksheet. And then they said I'm done.
9. I was surprised, it took me 1 hour only for day 2. I went out 9am. By the way during my day 1, I finished until 11am.
10. It is really good to know that they are working faster now.

P.S. Never get paranoid, get worried, get stressed. Just entrust it all to the Lord and you will be fine.

Well friends, I need to sleep now cuz my arms are swelling, they are still aching.

Good luck to all and God bless.

Did they tell you to complete the HPV series [for cervical cancer] when you got to the US?

Don't worry about the medical exam. It's just like medical exam in some of the hospitals in our place. It is just that they are the credited medical center for US applicants. Good luck to your medical and don't forget to pray.

Are there some instances that I will be deny in their POE?
I can stay in Hawaii with my fiance for 5 nights or even longer before flying to my fiance's home place, right?

I'm just afraid the immigration in Hawaii would not let me enter their port if I will say that I will stay for a couple of days in Hawaii with my fiance before flying ca. I know I sound funny but I just want to make sure everything will be ok and I need your advices.

Hello Ria,

Will our visa be delivered on Monday? Did you get a text from Delbros? In my case, I texted them this morning (saturday) and I got a reply that says pls be informed that we are now preparing for dispatch the visa for MNL2008********. I didn't receive a text like visa will be delivered within 3 days. So does it mean that we will need to wait for the text saying visa will be delivered within 3 days? I'm just confused and worried cuz my fiance and I plan to meet dec. 8 hopefully.

P.S. and to those vjs who got their visa already, I need an answer here pls.
