    Congratulations! Amazing that oath ceremony is scheduled so quickly.

    Did you front load application with more documents - like tax transcript etc ?

    Also, did the IO ask any additional documents for verification? 

    I applied through postal mail and only submitted GC copy and nothing more. I have next month and was wondering what kind of documents I need to carry.

    Thank you!

    I didn’t load anything but scans of my green card and marriage certificate with my application.

    The IO only asked for my passport, my green card and ID. I did bring more documents with me just in case (marriage certificate, my husband’s birth certificate, tax transcripts) but she didn’t ask to see anything else. There is a list of what you need to bring on the interview notice, and it depends on what rule you applied to N400 (3 year rule vs 5 year rule).

     

    Good luck with your interview!

    N-400 December 2022 Filers

    in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports

    Posted · Edited by Mar&Ant

    Hey everyone! I just come back from my interview and it went very well, a very smooth process overall…. And yes, I passed!

     

    Here is a short summary:

    Once at the office (San Jose), I waited about 10 minutes before an officer called me in. She was very kind during the whole interview, she first asked to see my appointment letter, my passport, my green card and ID (I applied for N-400 based on 5 year LPR eligibility rule), and then we started with the test. She only asked 6 civics questions:

    • What is freedom of religion?
    • where is the Statue of Liberty?
    • Who signs bills to become laws?
    • When was the Constitution written?
    • What did Martin Luther King, Jr. do?
    • Why does the flag have 50 stars?

    and then she proceeded to ask me to read "what state has the most people", and to write "California has the most people".

     

    The rest of interview consisted of questions on my identity (full name, marital status, employer, address, date and place of birth, etc…), and then the usual yes or no questions regarding criminal activities, and then questions regarding my willingness to take the oath.

     

    After that they had me wait another 20 minutes to receive my Oath ceremony notice, the ceremony is scheduled for April 28. Voilà!

     

    Good luck to everyone ♥️

    I filed this past December (my local office is San Jose as well) and haven’t received the interview notice yet, but according to the immigration timelines for the N400 in San Jose, the wait time looks to be a bit all over the place between same day to over 2 months between the interview and the oath ceremony (but for most it’s about 1 month) https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/citlist.php?op6=All&op7=San+Jose+CA&op1=8&op2=&op4=1&op5=5%2C10%2C11&cfl=0

    I hear ya... I just emailed my lawyer asking for guidance, as my window for the N400 opens up in 2 weeks. I'm a bit torn, not sure if applying now will help or slow things down even more

    😕

    BTW, dans quel état es-tu (si je peux me permettre de poser la question en français).

     

    Je suis en Californie, à San Jose plus précisément :). J’ai lu dans un post plus haut que tu étais dans la région de San Francisco aussi. 
     Il me semble que les délais sont plus longs en Californie, on a de la chance haha

    Hey all! 

     

    After hiatus of 2 years it's go-time again. Because my husband and I are the best procastinators in the world, we didnt file till the 26. And my GC expires at 11/7. So let's hope I get that receipt before that. I also got a new job, were I need my license for starting wednesday 😅 

    I actually live right next to the lockbox here in Phoenix, but they didn't let me drop it off. It had to be send out and send back in again, took 4 days 🙄

     

    Just to be sure, I read everywhere that travelling is fine with with the receipt. Do I need to do anything extra? I have a big trip to Japan coming up in December. 

    Yes, to travel outside of the US you will need the original extension letter and the expired green card 🙂

    Hello everyone  please  help  just checked  my status  and its ready for interview  it has not giving me a date of when exactly  am panking what do I do? 

    Your status is "ready to be scheduled for an interview" or "interview is scheduled" ?

    If it's the latter one, you should receive the appointment letter in the next days, I received mine the day after the status updated to "interview is scheduled" (and they normally give you the date of the interview in the online status).

     

    And if your status is "ready to be scheduled for an interview", then it just means you have to wait for your local office to set an interview date (which can take days, weeks or even months).

    HI VJ,

     

    I have been working on getting my wife on as many of our accounts possible for our end of Nov interview.

     

    So far I have:

     

    -2 joint bank accounts

    -Authorized Credit card user.

    -Power/Gas Utility Bill

    -Comcast Bill

    -Beneficiary of 401k

    -Beneficiary of life insurance

    -Open enrollment document showing joint health care for 2018

     

    Own car but CA requires an EAD for an ID/DL card to put her on.

     

    The lease is in my name, however I am not sure if I can get her on, since I am the primary income earner and that's all the land lord cares about. I'm dont believe I can change this.

     

    Is the joint lease needed?

    Wow! Congratulation! How did you know that your interview will be on November 22? Did USCIS sent you a letter for your appointment for interview?  and How long you waiting from AOS?

     

    I would like to say Good luck and Congratulation!

     

     

    R Love S

    Thanks a lot!

    08

    The date was notified with the change of status on the USCIS website. I will receive the appointment letter in the next days I guess. My NOA1 is 08/28, so I was surprised I wasn't expecting it now, especially that my office (Sacramento) is processing February 2017 cases as of now according to the USCIS website.
