Even though you had your fingerprints taken, you wont be given an interview until the USCIS recieves a response from the FBI that they have no deragatory information on you. Getting this reponse from the FBI can take anywhere from 1 to 12 months, or sometimes longer. The reason it takes so long is because the FBI does a search based only on your name and birthday and they check for "similar" names and year of birth. The computer may match your name to someone else who has a similar name and close birthday and then an FBI agent must physically look at the files and make sure it is not you. They don't have a lot of people working on this at the FBI and it takes them a long time to get around to it. Basically it is typicall beurocratic red tape. Sooner or later they will send a response to USCIS and then USCIS will invite you for an interview. This is quite typical. You are not the only one. Worry only if you change addresses or you are waiting more than, say, 9 more months.

Usually within 6 months time frame. If its pending for more than 180 days, I think you can file WOM - suing USCIS. laborperm@gmail.com

watta wonderful idea! Sue USCIS for delaying your Citizenship processing and have your GC revoked. Ani "You will be like, chauta khana gayeko budi jhol ma dubi mari."

Actually you can sue. Laborperm knows what he is talking about. However that 180 day clock does not start ticking until you get your initial interview. That is why, in the case of citizenship, they will no longer interview you until the FBI clearence is received. Too many law suits.
