When is your interview? Mine is also 4 weeks, 12/11.

I had my 5-year transcripts with me last time, but they never asked for any. I also had them uploaded online. 

I'll bring all the same documents with me again.

Interview Dec 6th

Hi all. I had my interview last Friday at the West Palm Beach office, and It went so well that I am still in disbelief.  My appointment was for 9:30 AM, and we entered the building at 9:05 AM. There must have been 90 - 100 people waiting for their interviews as well.  Because it was a combo interview, I brought my husband and our 3 year old son. At 10:45 we got called by a lady officer. 

 

We were led to a room after passing a long corridor.  In that wing of the building there were at least 20 rooms. Most had people inside being interviewed.  Anyway, we encountered the sweetest officer. She was so nice that she kept asking our son questions, especially about his recent Halloween experience.  The first question she asked was how my husband and I met. I spoke about it, and even then she continued to be so friendly to my toddler.  Then she asked my son if was Ok for her to ask Mom a few questions. That was the cue for my husband to bring him to  the chair behind me. Surprisingly, they stayed in the room while my husband was playing with my son. The officer asked the civic questions, which I answered the first 6, and that was it.  I did the English test that stated that California has the most people people in a state. After answering correctly, the officer then proceeded to ask me all those questions about  being a member of the Communist party, etc. And that was it and she said that she was recommending for citizenship.I would just to have to wait for the notice for  the oath taking. I signed a few papers and the interview was effectively over. 

 

I was so moved that my eyes started to swell.  I thanked the officer profusely and asked to shake her hand.  That was such a relief. I say that because my husband had a nephew who used to be a USCIS officer in NYC, and he was an absolute terror to would be immigrants and citizens.  When we were out of the building, my husband joked that the officer had more questions for our son than me. Which was so true. 

 

The journey is almost over, and I can't thank everyone enough in this forum for all the help. A big shoutout to Old User for sharing so many of his insights. BTW, it says in my progress tab that I still have a 4 months wait for a decision.  I have to thank Old User again for patiently telling everyone not to be frightened with those estimates. They are often wrong. So for those who still have their interviews ahead of them, good luck! Don't overthink it.  And as we say in Brasil,  Deus abençoe a todos or God bless us all.

Congratulations! You are almost there, I can almost guarantee it's a matter of few days or weeks until you get the oath appointment. Thank you for detailed report. Once you become a citizen, I highly recommend getting a large passport book (price is the same as regular) and updating status with SSA. Keep us posted!

What a great end (almost) to this long process -- you deserve to feel great.

Thanks also for your detailed report, which is of value to many.
