Hello all,

So I got the letter and I am going to take the Oath Thursday next week here in Indianapolis. On the letter, it says that the new citizen should be at the place by 9:00 am, I am assuming because they need to check you in and that takes some time. My question is, can a guest I'm planning to invite arrive a little bit later than that, say, by 10:00? What time is exactly the ceremony?

My oath letter said 8:30, but the judge didn't convene the court til 10:30. He was very accommodating, and guests were allowed to take pictures during the ceremony. He even posed with individuals after the oath. The local news station recorded the ceremony, and did a few interviews afterwards. I can't speak for your location, but from what I have read, the oath ceremony is usually a solemn but happy occasion. Guests should arrive as close as possible to the appointed time, but I don't think they would be turned away if they arrived a bit later.
