Irving (Dallas)

[NB5347 45]

We had our interview today for lifting of conditions as well as citizenship for my husband. Interviewer mentioned there are limited ceremonies lately ugh! 😭 Any ideas how long ceremonies are taking to get scheduled in Irving Dallas after one’s interview? Husbands status updated and it shows oath ceremony to be scheduled… we’ve got an international trip planned end of April for our babies first bday (non refundable) so a bit nervous on timing! I had previously heard oath ceremonies took place 2-3 weeks after the interview and then we could expedite passport… aghhh!

You might get lucky in this regard.  Keep the faith.

I always buy travel insurance... you never can tell.

Ours was 40 days or so after the interview. This was last October. Don't forget to account for the passport time. 

We had wife's US passport in hand a week later, but could have happened sooner. I recommend making an appointment online at the Passport center downtown a few days before ceremony date, so you go there immediately after (with  nat. certificate, proof of travel, photos etc). Our ceremony was on a Friday, next available appointment was next Tuesday. Passport pickup on Friday (they pushed us out 3 days because we didn't travel until Saturday, but they can even do same day pickup).

Wife's oath ceremony was about 6 weeks after our combo interview (interview was December 14th, 2022 in Irving).  She, along with 1,000 other new citizens, took the oath in the Plano Event Center 43 days later (Jan 26th, 2023).

2. Spouses with Pending Petitions and Naturalization Application

s
An application for naturalization may not be approved if there is a pending petition for removal of conditions. If an applicant’s petition to remove conditions is pending at the time of filing or is filed prior to the interview, USCIS will adjudicate the petition to remove conditions prior to or concurrently with the adjudication of the naturalization application.[

 

The following is the schedule for oath (s)

check it often as they will update it passed the March date when they know

That is not accurate for all oath ceremonies. Those are only court ceremonies.

The OP's I-751 and N-400 have both already been approved else "oath ceremony to be scheduled" would not be the status.
