Hey All,

Anyone in Miami have an Oath Ceremony recently or have any information on one? With the new "Green" USCIS Buildings operational (West Kendall, Hialeah, etc..) Do they do Same-Day Oath Ceremonies? If not, do they still do mass Miami ceromonies somewhere? If so, WHERE? I have seen threads about it being done at the Miami Beach Convention Center... Where do they rent out now?

I'm in the West Kendall Field Office and am trying to figure out where my oath ceremony would be, and if they do same-day at that building if possible and/or by request...

Any info is greatly appreciated! :thumbs:

T-Minus 30 Days till my Interview :dance:

I know that they were doing them weekly at the Auditorium last summer and fall, but that may have been because there was an overload of people wanting to take the oath in time to vote.

compatriota hola.

this an old post but I had my oath at the 88 Nw 7th Ave on July 28th, 2010. The room was small, we were 200 + guests and it was packed. we were 7 or 8 Argentineans that day, not bad. The downside, it was only 45 minutes. I hardly had time to sit down, that we were out of there.

no, my interview was June 9th, due to that my coworker was going on vacation at the end of the month I couldn't schedule the oath for the end of June. I told the officer and she adivised me that I would receive in the mail the next available date, which was July 28th.

It looks like the Oath ceremonies are scheduled close to the end of the month. I'm sure everything will go well tomorrow and that you will be approved, you'll be fine. If you can make it, you will stay and tomorrow after the exam, and they will give you the letter with the oath ceremony date.
