Hello all, well after 37 years as a LPR (yes 3 years) I finnaly have my interview this Thursday in Chula Vista. The interview letter recommends taking an extra set of picturs and wanted to know if I really should? I already have all the paperowrk I sent in (copies and originals) as well as my Selective Service record. Anything else I'm missing or might take just in case? Anyone here have any experience in the Chula Vista office?

if they ask you to bring an extra set of pictures, then they might want to see if the one you bring in with you is better (or if you like it more) and of course, they expect it to be a more recent one.

Nothing to worry about....

good luck!

They ask for an extra set of pictures in case the ones you submitted originally are not acceptable. That way you won't have to 'wait' until you re-submit acceptable photographs in order to pass the interview and be scheduled for an oath. If you bring the extra photographs and they are not used, you can always use them for your passport application. That is what I did with mine. They will use the photographs you submitted to paste right on your certificate - so if you didn't like the picture you submitted, you can ask them to exchange it for one you bring with you to the interview.

Good luck

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
