Hi Guys, I was originally schedule for my oath ceremony last month but i did not receive the notice of naturalization letter.

I got to know about that notice after i checked my case status online. Then, I called the 800# and explained to them that I did not receive my Notice of Naturalization mail, it might have been delivered to a wrong address or lost in the post office. I was told that i will receive another letter that would outline the steps I need to take to reschedule it. July 3rd I did receive a letter, saying I have missed Oath of Naturalization ceremony and that a new date will be reschedule for me.

My worries

1) I have waited for 3 weeks now and I have not been reschedule.

2)The letter i received did not list any step I should take.

I am in dying need of advice here. Is there something that I should do to facilitate my reschedule? remember i did not received the Oath Naturalization mail.

Missing an oath ceremony is a big deal and rescheduling might take months. You need to call USCIS again and speak to immigration service office and explain to them what happened, asap. They will guide you through the process...don't delay it any longer, call them and get answers.

I would make an Infopass appointment and visit the office in person.

The ceremony is scheduled by the local office, so it's better to talk to them in person. The person on the phone can only make a note in your file that says you need a new oath date.

Hello so you had to do nothing and you got the rescheduled date for Oath Ceremony? I was out of country and I missed mine as well. Did you receive any notice that outlines the steps you must take to reschedule your oath ceremony?

I received a letter stating that I failed to appear for this ceremony. You will be notified by USCIS of the date,place and time of your rescheduled Oath Ceremony.

its been 2 weeks when i got this letter.Should i just wait or do something about it?
