I have appointment next Monday for interview, and here in PA, and also MI, everything is getting canceled left and right.

I m so afraid they might cancel it.

And if I am approved, they might cancel the oath ceremony.

It’s a legitimate fear at this point.

Potentially across the country in the coming days and weeks:

 

- office closures

- postponing of interviews

- postponing if oath ceremonies

- adding to current delays and backlog

Thank you, I appreciate it, I did not find it earlier. However, they mostly are discussing who takes it how seriously or not, and debating the virus itself.

But the fact of the matter is, local and state governors are starting to issue , at this point - recommendations, I was wondering what would be USCIS policy, will they follow state or federal guidlines.

Currently,  if my information is accurate, the recommendation in PA is that sporting events or events that are not essential and over 50 people. Meaning - cancel family re-union - so far not the general schools. However,  I think it is going to just tighten. Recomendatino in MI is any event up to 100. But it is just the start. There are definitely usually some 50 people at the ceremony... so

Yes, I’ve been wondering all of these things myself this past week as my oath ceremony is meant to be this Friday. NYC has been getting more extreme with each day that passes in regards to cancellations and restrictions so things can get way worse even between now and Friday. 
 

What happens will depend on many factors and may be different from one field office to the next. Last week the Seattle office closed for one week Because a worker had tested positive. Today an oath ceremony was cancelled in Boston. An upcoming ceremony in San José has already been cancelled. 
 

What’s true is that the citizenship process will absolutely be disrupted in some form or other over the comings weeks and/or months. I think many people are acting like this isn’t going to happen - or they haven’t even thought about it.....
