You've got this! They didn't ask ANYTHING from me. I showed up with a HUGE bag, binders full of stuff and all he wanted to see was my passport/ID/green card. Not even my husband's passport! I had to force him to take my 2018 takes and renewed lease lol. Reading stories here, they don't seem to ask for much, maybe you taxes, updated lease, or recent bank statements. The interview wasn't hard, just boring as they go over the questions on the N-400. By the time the civics test came I was actually calm. If you've studied, you've got this!

Finally! It's on the dhs site too. They better schedule that oath ceremony soon. Though I'm not expecting it for at least a months, despite of having 2 dates (with 3 ceremonies each) per month, Milwaukee seems to be so slow... Maybe it is because the ceremonies are rather small here? I saw someone's pics from LA, there was a crazy amount of people there.

I just want to update you guys about my case in case someone is in the same boat.

So today I got an Email saying they have taken action in my case and so I signed in (with excitement!! woooaaahh) and this notice came out:

 

 

I guess now I have an interview, but (I don't know if they get money everytime you go to their notification web site or what)  I have to wait a "few days" to get an interview date:

I am traveling in two weeks and I am a little on edge. 

 

I  have not heard a 'pin drop' about my interview  I applied in October and my office is in Nashville TN. I get the weekly generic update about still working on my case.

 

Sigh..... A bit frustrating.

 

I have my 18-month extension letter and my passport stamped. 

 

Should I be worried about traveling? I know it depends on the situation and all. I guess I am just airing my thoughts. 😕

it's all up to you. they usually give you a month of warning before you interview so if your trip is short enough, it may be ok. I was afraid to travel with my extension letters and definitely would be so close to them expiring, so I don't have actual experience with traveling.

Thank you for responding.

 

I won't be out of the country for long (2 weeks).

 

I will be taking my expired GC, extension letter and my passport is stamped, so I am hoping I won't run into any issues.

 

PS. I got my driver's license renewed for 5 years with absolutely no issues, just based off of my extension letter. When I had gotten the 12-month extension letter, they only renewed my license for exactly 1 year.

Hi everyone, 

I have 2 questions for all of you who did the oath ceremony and got the passport. 

First question- for all of you who got the passport at the passport agency, did they send you the passport or you need to pick it up from the same place?

Second question- I know that they take the original naturalization certificate, so did you get the certificate back together with the passport, if not, how long does it take to get the original certificate back? 

 

I dropped off my application in the morning and picked up my passport and naturalization certificate the same day from the same location.  I overheard another agent saying they could mail the passport out if the applicant didn't want to come back to the agency.

How long did you wait for pick up? Was it fast?

I dropped it off at 8 am and they said it would be ready at 3.  I don't know if they can turn them faster if needed.
