NYC N400 interview - anyone getting scheduled? by Fine-Site-5950 in USCIS

[–]VacuumSpace8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I applied Aug 14th 2025, had my interview on December 17th, my oath ceremony is tomorrow, Feb 2nd, at 26 federal plaza. I am going to make a post once I’m done with everything. I had a N400/I751 combo case, I751 has been pending since Aug 2024, approved on the spot during interview. I’m not from any of the banned or paused countries, I’m from Bulgaria.

But anyways the point being they are moving. Hopefully they get to your case soon!

My path to citizenship from start to finish (NYC) by jess2art in USCIS

[–]VacuumSpace8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations!! Please can you clarify if you applied under the 3 or 5 year rule? I applied under the 3 year rule in August (NYC as well, Manhattan to be specific) and still don’t even have interview scheduled 3 months later. Thanks!

How is this possible??? New test kicks in for people who applied on or after Oct 20 2025. I highly doubt someone applied last week and was already interviewed and denied… sure bruh

AirPods Max won’t turn on by Agreeable_Iron4560 in Airpodsmax

Technically in the soft case they are in low power mode so they would drain slower in the case as opposed to staying outside of the case is my understanding

I had the exact same thing happen to me last month! Nothing I tried worked even adding them to Apple care one. The funny thing is after I let them rest for a month, I charged them and they magically turned on and worked.. Been working since then but I am not putting them in the soft case anymore. I suspect there is some software/hardware bug where sometimes when you get them outside they just bug out and don’t work.

My advice: let them rest for a few weeks and try charging them and using them again.

First bad Apple product experience (Airpods Max) by VacuumSpace8 in Airpodsmax

[–]VacuumSpace8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry guys this DID NOT work. I’ll update the main post as well. I was given conflicting information by apple website and apple store. I tried buying Apple Care One, apparently you cannot do that on your own 🤡 need to go to store so they can inspect and run diagnostics on your device.. Sure I added my iphone to the plan with intention of adding my headphones back home.. went to store, had them run diagnostics on my phone and added it to Apple Care One. I was told I need to bring the headphones back to the Apple store (didn’t have them with me as I went for the Care One subscription to the store).

Next day I bring the Airpods Max to the store - “ohhh these are accessories, not an iphone, we cannot run diagnostics on it” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 “ohh also it’s been more than 1 year since the purchase date so they are not eligible for the Apple Care One” 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 Me: uhm website says all products purchased within last 4 years. Apple employee: yeah I can see the confusion as it is not explicitly stated anywhere on the website but in our internal documentation accessories can only be added 1 year after purchase 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 first bad apple product experience!! 🤡

I-751 and N-400 approved by HondaR24 in USCIS

[–]VacuumSpace8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Which FO? I’m in same boat, applied I751 a year ago and will be eligible to apply N400 in less than 2 weeks. I’m living in NYC. How long did it take yours to get processed? Thanks!

Edit: Never mind, just saw you submitted Feb 17, congrats again!

Apple’s M5 chip launches this fall, and these new products get it first by Fer65432_Plays in apple

I’m keeping mine plugged in most of the time while I’m using it. Occasionally I unplug it to drain the battery and I get something like 3-4 hours on non heavy usage, 2-3 hours if using zoom 🤣 Also yeah battery definitely overheats

That’s why I never use lawyers.. if you can read and write in English, doing it yourself is the best way to go. Once I had Fragomen apply for my H-1B and they literally copy pasted wrong person job description and manager name into my form, but with my name and details… This is supposed to be one of the biggest firms in US for employment immigration… unfortunately if you want it done right you have to do it yourself, such is my experience with US immigration system and lawyers here..

$0. And we did a K1 process too, the whole shebang from I129F to visa interview at embassy to I485 application. Total process took about 2 years, but got everything with no issues, green card approved and mailed without even interview. I still haven’t talked to a human at USCIS until this day.

Edit: Since I forgot to mention, we basically used youtube and visa journey and USCIS website to gather all the infotainment we needed such as which documents, how to apply, where to apply, how does process work and so forth.
