Got my passport today! 4 weeks from when I applied

Good to know. I would never fly so never looked into it. 
 
I just saw this off the link you posted. 
Exception: If you are an American-Canadian dual citizen with a valid U.S. passport, you don’t need a Canadian passport to fly to Canada. However, you will still need to carry proper identification and meet the basic requirements to enter Canada.

Canada does not have that requirement. 
 
I didn't bother keeping my Canadian passport. It says my country of birth on my US passport and I've never had any issues. Renewing 5 Canadian passports was just too darn expensive. 

I got e mail this morning my Passport was approved and shipped. Processed at Dallas passport Agency. Applied on August 10th. They started to process on August 20th. Exactly 4 weeks.

My passport is shipped today! thank you everyone. this was my last tracking.. no  more tracking anything.. lol.. 

Just applied today and added my name to the spreadsheet. The USPS employee told me it would be about 12 weeks or so. Fingers crossed! 

Congratulations to all the interview and oath schedulings, and especially to the newest U.S. Citizens! Please use your right to vote this year, I don't recall an election where the importance is as high as this time around.
 
I still haven't heard anything from my ultra-backlogged field office and am slightly frustrated. But I'm happy for everyone who's case is moving!

Apple's Oath ceremony was scheduled for 10:30 am in Memphis, and they started letting people in 3 at a time (elevator social distancing) at 10:05. It looked like there was about 40 people scheduled, and they were split into 3 groups. She was back outside at 10:40. Everything was smooth, except her middle name on the certificate was wrong. It wasn't noticed until we were back in Little Rock trying to renew her driver's license. Currently on hold with USCIS. 😠

Had my oath ceremony this morning! It was a quick and efficient process. There were about 8 people total. We heard a brief speech, stood for the anthem, recited the oath, and then we were done. I registered to vote on my phone on the way home, lol.

I passed!!!🎊🍾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 
No same day Oath

I have my Interview tomorrow 8:30am EST pray for me pleaseee🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Had my oath ceremony today. There were 11 or 12 of us (uncertainty due to being at the very front of the room). The entire thing took about half an hour,
 
I arrived 30 minutes before as per the letter, but was told to come back in 15 minutes as there were a whole bunch of people coming in for interviews at the same time.
 
After the ceremony we were given the choice to have an unmasked photo taken by a uscis employee (photo will be emailed). 
 
Pittsburgh has really ramped up their oath ceremonies. Instead of two ceremonies a week pre covid, they are now doing 4 ceremonies 4 days a week. Plus instead of one courthouse ceremony a month they are doing one every Friday. So I probably could have had my name changed to include my middle name without much delay. Oh well - such is life.
 
Most surreal thing - they were playing Souza marches as we were waiting. And while Liberty Bell sounds appropriate, for people of my generation it’s immediately recognizable as the Monty Python theme tune, lol.

Just got my oath ceremony scheduled, it's on August 20th. Almost there!

Although I haven’t physically got the letter yet, my oath ceremony notification turned up online. August 17th.

My status has now changed to “oath ceremony notice was mailed”. Unfortunately the document is not yet showing in the document tab, but I’m guessing that will happen in the next couple of days.
