N-400 Naturalization

N-400 Naturalization

Finally … we get to crack the champagne that a client gave me almost 2 years ago!

We filed for naturalization in April 2020, but due to a “File Release Restriction” at the Federal Records Center, the case was not processed for nearly 2 years 🙄

“Your Form N-400 is currently pending preprocessing checks at the National Benefits Center (NBC). On [Date], the NBC
requested your A-file from the Federal Records Center (FRC) to continue processing your Form N-400. However, due to a file hold
restriction, the FRC is not honoring A-file requests at this time. Although we are hoping that the FRC lifts their file release restriction in the upcoming months we are uncertain of an exact time. Once the NBC retrieves your complete record from the FRC they will continue with the processing of your Form N-400. We hope this information is helpful to you.”

Today, the nation became a better place.
