Diesel,

Thanks for sharing your experience - it is very useful !

Did you have traffic violations? and did you declare those in your application (questions in section 10 D)? Did the IO ask specific questions or asked for court records of those tickets.

The reason I ask is that I have 3 tickets (all minor traffic violations) in last 15 years, but answered no to the questions in section 10 D as that's how I interpreted them (I wasn't on this forum when I filed my app.) Now, I have the court records for two of those, but do not have any record for one - the Denver court (at Bannock Street) couldn't find it as they can search the records only by First/Last name or by Citation #, and I do not have citation # but do remember that my name was misspelled on that one traffic citation (anf thus they ca nnot find it by my name.)

BTW, it was interesting to find out that they can not search traffic court records by driver license #.

Appreciate your feedback.

Thanks

Sorry, don't know how they deal with traffic violations. I've only ever had 1 speeding ticket that didn't qualify to be enclosed on the application.

Diesel,

Congratulations !!!

I live in Denver too, and have my interview scheduled in June. Can you please share your interview experince?, especially with respect to traffic tickets? Were you give the same day oath option or did you ask for it?

Thanks

DenverCO,

I had my interview at the Centennial location. The letter said to not arrive more than 30 min early, so I got there about 15 min before my app. Had to wait a little after my original app time, they were pretty busy. I was called into a small office where a lady asked me the same questions that were on the application. She then had me read a sentence in English, and write the answer in English. After that she asked me 6 history and civis questions (first President, 2 US holidays, CO Governor, the others I don't remember). She took photocopies of my DL and passport, said that I had passed the interview, gave me a piece of paper to return at the oath, and asked if I wanted to come back 1 hour later for the oath ceremony. She said that they try to always get that done the same day as the interview, but I don't know if every weekday is a "ceremony day". The security check personnel at the entrance kept saying it's "ceremony day", so maybe I just happened to have my interview on such a day.

The oath ceremony took just about an hour. We sat in one end of the room, and family/friends at the other end. We were given a packet of passport application, SSA application, and some other stuff. We got to see a video with Obama welcoming us, and a couple of other videos. We said the Pledge of Allegiance, sang the National Anthem, and were finally given our certificate.

Good luck on your interview.

I live in Denver, applied in late February 2010, had fingerprints done in mid March, had interview/test done late April. Had the oath ceremony ONE HOUR after the interview!! I'M DONE!!!! YEEEEYYYY, no more USCIS for me.

Can anybody confirm me, accordingly to your personal experience, if those 100 questions are the ones that the naturalization test (new test after Oct. 2008) will be based on?

Besides the above link there is any other material to study for the test?

Tks to all of you guys!!!!!!!

Yes. That's the only material you'll need.

We married in March 2004 and will be filing the I-751 in Sept this year.
