If you file before your daughter turns 21 she will get here much sooner than her brother. It will be maybe a year or so for under 21, 6-7 years for over 21.
I stop by today to see all my fellow VJers and was surprised to see some of you still waiting for interviews. Hang in there your turn is sure to come. Merry Christmas to one and all.
I am now a citizen of the United States of America

I did a paper file. I filed in January 2018 and got my interview next week. For me, there is no need to rush. I prepared to wait the duration of the process.
Wow, 2.5 hour drive - mainland is spreadout.. From where I live in Honolulu to USCIS office is 15 min drive (no traffic, if traffic 30 mins). It's in walking distance from my workplace, but I wiil take that big day off for sure. Sadly, I haven't had date set yet.
Pls keep us posted. Good luck and best wishes to you~
I had my interview today with a pending ROC. The interview letter never mentioned anything about ROC but I went with my hubby anyway. That was a good decision because when my number was called, the IO asked whether my spouse was around because he needed to be present for the interview. Interview lasted about 20 minutes for both N-400 and ROC. For the ROC, he asked for documents that proved my spouse and I still live together. I gave him bank statements, tax transcripts, and some utility bills which he made copies of. Then he asked us how and when we met, when we started living together, our wedding date (which we had to tell him 3 different times cause he kept getting it "wrong") and then asked whether we owed any taxes. He thought it was funny when I answered "not as far as I know" and that was it. He then asked my spouse to leave the room so he could conduct the N-400 interview. We went over the Yes/No questions, updated some information that has since changed then signed it. Proceeded to the civics test which he said "correct" after every answer I gave. I got all 6 questions right at which point he said since I got them all, that was all for that portion of the test so we'd proceed to the English test. There was an oral test and a written test. For the written section he just read out a sentence and asked me to write it down. He then told me he would be recommending me for approval and that my oath ceremony will be in 2 weeks if it wasn't already full which he didn't think it was and to be on the look-out for my oath letter in the mail within the next week. My test was as follows:
Civics and History test:
1. When was the declaration of independence adopted?
2. Name one of the longest rivers in the U.S.
3. What is the name of the speaker of the house of representatives?
4. What do we call the first 10 amendments to the constitution?
5. We elect a president for how many years?
6. Who lived in America before the Europeans arrived?
English oral test:
1. Who was Abraham Lincoln?
English written test:
1. Lincoln was President during the Civil War.
Here are the questions I got:
who is the farther of our country,
what is the number of rep,
how often do we vote for rep,
when was independence declared,
when is the last day to file taxes,
what is the highest court
good luck for those waiting for interview and do dress to impress.
It is normal to be feeling that way. I recently had my interview. Just answer the questions they ask and if you don't understand the question ask them to repeat. It is a simple interview. It only get tough if you are not prepared or cannot remember the answers to any questions asked. You have to get at least 6 civics questions right. Before leaving home make sure you have your appointment letter, green card, driver's license and anything you believe applies to your case.
First of all I will like to say congratulations on becoming a US citizen. You need not guess since you went through the entire process and finally took the oath.
On the other hand I find it rather confusing or I must say sad, that you would bash a sitting President and come into a beautiful and informative forum such as this one and make such a statement. I am about to take my oath as well but will not behave like this. I will show respect and show up with an open and accepting heart. I will be proud and not sarcastic.
Congratulations!!!!! I am waiting for my oath ceremony to be scheduled. Had my interview a week ago. I can hardly wait for this to be over. Again Congratulations.
I would like to say thank you for this wonderful visajourney website as it helps me a lot from the beginning until the end of my immigration journey. Today I had my oath Ceremony and I am now American citizen. Thank you very much, without the helps of everyone here in this website I probably would have lost on my immigration journey also whoever made this website I owe you much. Thank you.
Tomorrow is my big day folks!!!!! the long awaited interview date is almost here. Will be sure to post my details the following day if i am unable to do so after my interview tomorrow. I got a 2.5 hour drive to Milwaukee.
For everyone who is still waiting for their interview date. Hang in there.
Ok I was reluctant to put in my two cents but I think its my responsibility as a VJ member and also someone from Trinidad and Tobago to say something. I will be honest with you. After reading about your experience I was left totally confused. You entered with B2 visa overstayed by 2 years? You met you husband and after meeting him you were married in 2 months? You live in one of his parents houses although you pay the bills? You had how many affidavits? Why so many? You got 2 kids but only one lives with you? Why not both? You are 35 and he is almost 30? I am sorry but I am seeing red flags based on what you said here. I am very sorry that your experience at that interview was as it is and no one should go through something like that. But one got to ask, what about this relationship is long and binding? Whats is the real purpose of this marriage, is it for a green card or love? Would you have married someone in Trinidad or Tobago with the same attributes such as those of your husband's? You mention that the people who assisted you with all those affidavits knew about your relationship. What relationship, I cannot say marriage after 2 months give me much to go by. I am sorry but I wish you good luck. As I always say to others all you got to do is search deep with in your heart and you will know if your marriage is real or if it is conditional. Sometimes whats in a man's heart surface at the interview without you knowing it did. On a final note, the person conducting the interview know everything they need to know about your case before you appear in front of them, hence the reason that person acted so harsh with you. The things you submitted to them was what your interview was based on. The extras with respect to the attitude was a bonus which you got. I am so sorry you had to endure it. Its all part of the plan I guess.
I think that was not what the person was asking. Its already a difficult task for us all, adding fuel to the flames wont help.
I am also waiting for them to approve that Ds3032 also. I wish I knew how long it would take for us to get to pay our IV fee and submit our package also. Good luck.
