HI! i dont know where to put my post so i apologize for my ignorance...

I just want to know if Fresno,CA does same day oath taking?... I live in Bakersfield,CA and i assume that the closest USCIS office that does interviews and oath taking is in Fresno..I have been tracking my case and on the USCIS website,it tells me that I will get my interview letter soon.. Im just wondering if any of the members here had some experience in Fresno, please provide me with some tips.. Thank you so much.. I apologize again for not posting this in the right place.

My Oath was 1 week after the interview. I really don't think that they offer the same day Oath, because I remember that during the Oath the whole staff of the USCIS Fresno office is present (collecting Green Cards and issuing certificates). The Oath ceremony is held only once a month in the Fresno Convention Center and according to the schedule there was one on Nov. 8th and there is one scheduled for Dec. 13 (no schedules for January yet). When do you expect to have your interview?

When did you send your application? I sent mine on November 15, 2011 and it was received by USCIS on November 18th. I received an appointment letter on January 12, 2012 and the interview was February 9th.

By the way, I just checked my dates and my ceremony was 2 weeks after interview, not 1 week like I stated above.

I received my interview letter 4 weeks before the appointment. If you follow the similar timeline, I don't think you'll be able to catch the December ceremony.
