We got our permanent residency through the EB-5 program more than five years ago. My husband passed the naturalization interview last October. The online status of his case has been “in line for interview” since then. However, now 94 days have passed and we have not heard anything. When should we expect a naturalization ceremony to be scheduled? What should we do now?

Schedule a Free Consultation with Top EB5 Visa AttorneysOnce your husband has passed his naturalization interview and the naturalization examiner has recommended his case be granted, he will be scheduled for a naturalization ceremony, which is technically a U.S. District Court hearing based upon the scheduled dates that the court has set forth to naturalize and swear in those individuals. The exact time will depend upon the number of applicants, a number of court hearing dates that have been set and when they're set.

After 120 days you can start inquiring with USCIS through their online tools or calling the national customer service center.

Alternatively, you can schedule an InfoPass meeting with the nearest USCIS office, where you can meet and discuss your case with a USCIS official. If you have an attorney, let him or her assist you as soon as possible.
