Hi everyone, let me share my interview experience for naturalization which took place on last Tuesday in local office in Hartford. To make a long story short I briefly explain what happened that day. Ok my appointment was scheduled for 9:40AM that day. I showed up around 9:10 and handed my letter to the window, and was told to wait for my turn. In about 15 minutes one of the officer came out for me and we went inside to his office. Everything was fine, I pass the test, however right before we were done he said something that he would like to see more supporting evidence for my marriage which I did not have at that time with me. A minute later he gave me a letter saying what to bring for the next time, then he will be able to give me the date for my oath ceremony. Now the date is scheduled for May 8th which is in another month and a half. I am ready to go anytime with more supporting evidence that I gathered next day. Now is the top question, does anybody know if there is any way to speed up that process rather than wait over a month.? I can not even express how that made me upset after waiting two months for my interview date. Please anybody who can advise me. :dance:

Again taxes for the past 3 years, bank statements, marriage certificate, lots of things. The only reason I did not have current bills was because latter said to bring all the originals that I submitted copies with application.

I'm planning to strike again next week, but God knows what are they going to come up with this time. Hoping that they will accept my stuff just as I walk in, a week later since my interview.
