Thanks, and to you too!

Did you notice the price of the certificate holder went from $10 before to $5 after the ceremony?

Thank you!

No I did not notice it because I did not buy one. I bought one for my wife when she naturalized four years ago and it was a waste of money because she did not use it. Her certificate is now in a bank safebox.

Did Aicha apply for her passport yet?

I applied for mine by regular processing on 01/29/09 at a local post office.

No, not yet. She needs to have pics taken first and she's extremely picky about them.

But soon.

I applied for mine by regular processing on 01/29/09 at a local post office.

When I applied for US Passport book/card on Nov 2008, it took 6 days.

Tracking system from Dept. of State didn't show up mine at all.

I saw new hiring from USCIS CBP IT job, and I applied for it.

Let's see what happened.

Hi everyone,

the interview went great. Very nice woman. The statement of my failure to register for SS was good enough and she didn't ask about the Status Information Letter. I got my oath date immediately after the interview. It's going to be Feb 12. Thanks a lot for all your posts and information. I like that this thread always gets frequent updates!

That is fast for the US Passport. Did you apply for the passport at a post office? I am just wondering if it makes any difference where you submit your application. Also if you have a passport do you need a " passport card"?

To all those who had done the Oath Ceremony............... what is this I hear about the signature on the picture and the signature on the Certificate ? Something to do with do not just sign your picture but to write your name down in full because that is how it will be on the Certificate. Thanks.

I did apply from one of Post Office as regular service.

You don't need passport card if you have passport book.

But since I have been carried my green card for so long, I feel much better to carry another "card" in my wallet.

For signature, you have to sign your fullname in your photo, which is stick in the certificate of naturalization.

Probably you have to do same signature for US passport application.

Some people have to sign the photo during the interview.

But in my case, I have to do it at the oath ceremony because I changed my legal name through naturalization.

Wait a minute, when you say sign your fullname in your photo which is stuck onto the certificate of naturalization.............................

Do you mean they use one of the pictures you filed with your N-400 (ask you to sign it during the interview on the front of the picture) and stick it onto your Certificate later on during the Oath ceremony?

Just wondering because I think I just wrote my name in print at the back of the pictures during the N-400 application.

Congratulations, TFO!

I've being waiting for my oath letter for more than 2 weeks now. Then, I scheduled an InfoPass on 2/18/09 to find out more about my application.

Good luck to all!

The certificate of naturalization has two signatures.

One on Photo you did submit with N400 application form.

Another in the certificate itself.

That's why USCIS ask to use light tip pencil, or ballpoint pen in the back of photo.
