    My journey is finally over.  Had my naturalization ceremony this morning.  Time was 7:15, got started at about 7:25 and was out of there by 7:40.  Good luck to everyone

    My husband had his citizenship interview today and he passed! They did a same day oath (Raleigh-Durham NC office), so he walked away with his naturalization certificate. 
     
    We are done with USCIS forever. I can hardly believe it.
     
    Best of luck to you all who are still waiting. The road is long, but it ends eventually!

    Check with your airline.  Most have no change fees/penalties due to the pandemic.
     
    I know an applicant that had their interview canceled last year due to the pandemic and they are still waiting for a new date.
     
    If it were me I would not change it.  Plan for the interview and then up to 6 weeks for the oath ceremony.  Unless it's a life or death trip you're so close to being a US citizen I wouldn't delay the interview.

    Received texts and emails last night that action was taken on my case.  Logged into MyUSCIS and see the oath ceremony scheduled form under the documents tab.  Ceremony will be 7/23.  I updated the sheet with my info

    Had my interview this morning.  It went smoothly.  Officer was quite stern when speaking to me, but had lots of chit chat with my attorney which I think helped lighten the mood.  He approved my application, however, due to two previous arrests (DUI in 2007, charges dropped and driving with expired license > 6 months in 2013) he said he needed to have my file approved by a supervisor before he could schedule me for the oath ceremony.  He said it should be no more than 24 hours and "should" be no problem.  I just checked MyUSCIS account and it already shows this.  Hopefully this means it was already approved.  I will finally breathe a sigh of relief once I get the official letter for the oath ceremony.  Almost there!

    I had my interview at the Milwaukee, WI field office. My interview was at 11:15 AM, but I got called in at 11:20 AM. The officer was nice, just not overly friendly or talkative. He swore me in, wanted to see my driver’s license and permanent resident card - didn’t want my passport or any other documents. We then proceeded to go through my application. He asked a bunch of questions about my spouse since I’m applying based on a marriage to a US citizen (full name, DOB, date of marriage, if we’re still married, asked about trips and whether or not my spouse came with me, and so on). I answered all of the yes or no questions. We then moved on to the civics test. I passed the first six questions, so he didn’t ask all ten. I had to read “The President lives in the White House” and then write the same sentence. He congratulated me and told me I passed my test, saying that in a month I’ll get a notice for my oath ceremony. The whole process took about 10 minutes since I was done by 11:30 AM. 
    I can’t believe I’m mostly done with this crazy immigration journey. Like most of you here, I completed the whole process on my own, but with a lot of guidance from VisaJourney. Good luck to you all - you WILL get there!
