I received my oath letter today! It's scheduled for December 11th at 1:45pm. Do you guys know if that means that the ceremony starts at 1:45 or that's just the time we need to report?
Almost there:)
-
Wife interview was done yesterday and approved. They said oath letter will be mailed in 2 to 3 weeks.
Congratulations!
-
Within the week, I'm sure.
In regards to timing, I think it's funny that the e-mail states if I don't get the letter by December 25th to let them know. Yes, I'll get right on that...
Hopefully the Oath will be before then...I'd like to get this done before the weather turns nasty down here.

I received an e-mail just ten minutes ago to say my oath ceremony has been scheduled/the letter has been mailed. I didn't seem to have an "in line" message whatsoever (either through e-mail or the case status page on the USCIS website); is that usual? I suppose I thought, even if it was instant, it would show one status and then the other.
In any case, I'm feeling less jittery now regarding my 'possible' Social Security Number mistake, since, as written before, I'm sure a supervisor would have spotted a discrepancy when proofreading my N-400 form, had there been one.
Good news Berty...it seems they skipped that step with me also, it went straight to "we have scheduled your Oath ceremony"....no in line status change or notification whatsoever before that.
Not that I'm complaining...hope to have the letter in the mailbox soon.

Congrats!
Congrats!
Thanks Kash...I hope yours follows soon!

Shockingly and surprisingly, I just a text message about an update to my case. After my interview this past Friday, I was not expecting an update so quickly since the IO said 3 weeks before I could hear something back about my case. Be not dismay, God is always on time. After checking the update online this is the great news I have seen:
Oath Ceremony Notice Was MailedWe scheduled your oath ceremony for Receipt Number NBC*. We sent a notice with the date, time, and location of your oath ceremony to the address you gave us. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you do not receive your notice by December 23, 2015, please go to www.uscis.gov/e-request to request a copy of the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.
Great News!...Congrats!

I had my interview today.
I arrived 20 minutes early and was called in almost exactly on time. Security and staff could not have been more helpful and courteous to all, this place is a model site for interacting with the public. The agent was very polite and friendly. She went over my application in detail. The only surprise was when she asked for my SSN card. I happened to have it on me but would not have thought to bring it otherwise.
The questions I was asked:
- Who wrote the Declaration of Independence?
- Who's the Commander in Chief of the military?
- What are the two major political parties in the United States?
- What is the political party of the President now?
- Name three original states
- Name a state that borders Mexico
- Read: Where is Congress?
- Write: Congress is in Washington
Signed the documents and got an oath ceremony a week from now.
Good luck all!

From this moment on, I am officially a US CITIZEN!
The long immigration journey might be over but for sure it starts another series of life full of challenging endeavors and opportunities which we will encounter in our everyday living as a citizen of this country. I am so grateful that I've been a part of this family. I would like to thank each and everyone of you who in one way or another helped a lot in making this journey worthwhile.
Congratulations to all of those who have had successfully completed the journey as well, and best of luck to all that are still waiting!
Congratulations!

I had my interview today and was approved
I arrived about 30 minutes early and didn't get called back until 10 minutes after my appointment time. The officer was polite but very serious and that didn't help my nerves any. He swore me in, took my GC, driver's license and social security card. He then made me read a sentence "Which state has the most people?" and then he asked me to write down "California has the most people" I wish I could remember the civic questions but I was such a ball of nerves that I vaguely remembered some of them. He then went through my complete application and had me sign a few forms and then told me I was approved:)
The officer told me I should get my Oath letter in about 30 days but I previously heard an officer tell another applicant out in the waiting room that there is an Oath on December 11th and he said that most people approved today should make it for that ceremony. Fingers crossed! I really hope to be able to be done with this whole process by the end of the year.
Good luck to everyone still waiting:) It's so so hard to be patient when you've been patient for so long
Congratulations!

Had my interview today, went very smoothly. The officer was thorough and efficient. He went through every single question on my application, asking if all the information was correct. Then we did the test. He wanted to see some additional documents (glad I brought them), and then said I was approved. He left the room for a minute and then returned with my letter of invitation to the Oath ceremony, which will be on December 11.
I was relieved that it was not any later than that date, because I have a trip to Canada planned for December 20th. That gives me about a week to get a U.S. passport. I think I will visit a passport center to get same day service. There isn't one immediately in my area, but there are 3-4 within 2 hours drive.
Congratulations!
-
Everything at the interview went as I was hoping for today, and now, the wait for the oath ceremony! It's taking 25 years to get here, so today was the end of a long and challenging road for me.
To everyone else still waiting: your time is coming. Don't be nervous. Just know the civics questions. And have confidence in yourself.
Best of luck to all of you soon-to-be-Americans! The country is a better place because of us -- hard working immigrants -- from all over the world, which is the fabric of the United States of America.
Congrats!

Done!
Congrats!

Congrats to those who are well on their way to completing this journey. As for me I was so close until they decided to cancel my interview last Friday due to NBC not shipping my file on time. I made a special request to a Supervisor to call me and conduct the interview as soon as the file gets there and she agreed. Now waiting for that phone call. File is in transit to local office. I got the idea from the VJ post.. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/526189-field-office-called-to-cancel-the-interview/
The guy was interviewed as a walk in three days after his descheduled interview.
Hopefully they won't drag it out too long...I'll keep my fingers crossed.
-
Well done! Mine is early on Thursday; I'm feeling confident enough (in fact I'm more antsy about getting there on time, than the actual interview itself). As for going over the form, I take it I don't have to memorise the exact dates of trips made outside the US that I wrote; I put a couple of weeks in the UK for both 2013 and 2015, but don't want to have to commit the exact dates to memory.
Thank you Berty!

Thank you!

Just got a message saying that I have been scheduled for an interview... yay!!!
I will update on the day and time when I get the notice in mail.
Congrats!

Well done! Mine is early on Thursday; I'm feeling confident enough (in fact I'm more antsy about getting there on time, than the actual interview itself). As for going over the form, I take it I don't have to memorise the exact dates of trips made outside the US that I wrote; I put a couple of weeks in the UK for both 2013 and 2015, but don't want to have to commit the exact dates to memory.
Actually that never came up wih me Berty....I haven't left the Country in 20+ years, all she wanted to see was my Resident Alien Card.

Congratulations!!
Thank you bulletin!

Well, it's Official....I passed and was approved right then and there...what a relief!!
Arrived about 9:55 for a 10:30 appointment, made it through Security without a hitch, which is a good thing.
Sat in the Waiting room for about 10 minutes before I was called in by a very nice Female Officer, she was very polite and friendly. After swearing me in she proceeded to go over my application very quickly, from there she moved on to the Civics questions of which I answered the first 6 correctly...the whole Interview lasted maybe 15 minutes?
1) During the Cold war what was the main concern of the United States?
2) What is one reason the Colonists came to America?
3) What is one right or freedom from the 1st Amendment?
4) Who is in charge of the Executive branch?
5) If the President can no longer serve who becomes President?
6) There are four amendments to the Constitution about who can vote. Describe one of them.
She made me read "Washington DC is our Capitol" and I had to write "California has the largest population"
Going over the app and questions took about 5 minutes and she handed me the N-652 stating I had passed the Civics/English test and the "Congratulations! Your application has been recommended for approval....the rest of the time she asked me to write down German greetings and Holidays and include translations for some kind of Greeting board they were putting together...seemed a little odd to me but I did it anyways....(has anyone ever heard of this?)
I left the building about 7 minutes after my scheduled appointment time.
Bottom line is the worst is over and I'm looking forward to seeing my status change and receiving my Oath letter.
For all those still facing the Interview please don't fret over it...as long as you know your application, have studied the Civics questions and have a good grasp of the English language you will be fine!
I will be keeping my Fingers crossed for everyone here and if I can help in any way please let me know.

I did it! . . . Representing for Boston, a Saturday Interview.
Had a very welcoming USCIS officer, and the conversation with her went great. Answered my questions, went through my paperwork, and she approved me.
My Oath Letter/Date will be mailed to me!
I feel so relieved! And I'm very happy to soon (after my OATH) become a United States Citizen!
Congrats!
-
You'll be fine! Good luck to you, let us know how it goes!
Thanks Kash...I'll post an update once we get back Monday evening.

Just got home and found the letter in the mailbox...I am to appear at the Fort Smith Office at 9:00 AM on December 18th for the Oath ceremony.
It doesn't say how early to get there so I will probably have to call to find out for sure.
What a great Christmas present!!
