Good Morning VJ families , As of today my wife is a US citizen . She took her oath ceremony this morning 04-10-2015 . We arrived at USCIS field office Atlanta by 7.00 am and her appointment was at 8.00 am . We never received her oath letter by mail (may be lost ) we knew though her oath ceremony is for today , from all the advice here we call USCIS and request them to fax her a copy that letter , we showed them the fax and field office staff did print us a copy of the actual letter we jump on the letter and filled where needed , then we proceed to the purple room 2nd floor . In there was another officer waiting and checking her letter and she went in the huge room by 7.45 am where the ceremony will be performed . In that room there was another officer she collect her oath letter and green card , My wife was given an assigned seat number so she proceed to the seat . There were at least 152 new citizen sworn in this morning . Room was packed and just by 7.50 am relatives and friends was allowed to attend the ceremony . Sharp 8.00 am ceremony started and last for around forty fives minutes . She was given her citizenship certificate and we stay back took some memorable pictures hugging and celebrating . We left the office by 9.00 am . then we started a new final step after citizenship requirement .

1. We went to update her social security status . 15 mins
2. We also went to Dept of Motor vehicle to update her License status as well as register her to vote . 35 mins
3. We went home make 2 copies of her Citizenship certificate (for our records only)
4. we went to post office and applied for her new passport . (our neighborhood post office is walk in for passport application ) 20 mins .
By 1.30 pm we reach home all happy and did accomplished everything she need to do .

Am so happy our journey is over finally now just need to wait for her passport delivery (we chose standard processing with overnight delivery that due to us not receiving of her oath letter (may be lost ) we don't want to take any chances lol )

Just want to thank everybody here for all their guidance and expertise . I was a wonderful journey sometime stressful but with all your help we did succeed in our goal .

For all who is in the process of getting naturalized , good luck to all and a stress free process .
Sincerely ,
Sajeed
