congratulations!! according to what you wrote, she may just have to check out a few things on your file. For example go over your work schedule and stuff, I don't know why she couldn't go over the stuff there but it seems you will get the oath letter soon. congrats

I AM guessing it was name check which hold my application for 2 years , i got interview letters twice and they were cancelled at the eleventh hour.

When I had my interview I was asked to sign and review the same documents. She then said that she had to get her supervisor's approval but said that I had passed. She asked if I would be available for the next scheduled oath ceremony in 2 weeks and I said yes. She told me to wait in the waiting room while she got the final approval and then they would bring me the Oath Ceremony letter. I waited about half an hour then my name was called. I have heard quite a number of people say they were told that the final approval had to come from a supervisor, so I suspect that this may be what she needs to do as well. It could be that the supervisor was not available that day so it would be a day or so before that approval would be made, and once it was, then the oath ceremony would be scheduled and an letter of invitation sent to you. It sounds to me like you are approved in all but the paperwork, otherwise she would not have been mentioning to you about attending the January or February oath ceremonies.

Congratulations - you've certainly waited a long time for this! Enjoy the day when it comes.
