Mr&Mrs G.

My journey has finally ended today, a big thanks to all at visajourney who helped and supported me when I first applied for an IR1 visa. When I joined visajourney I was a lot more active but I have not been posting in a long time although I still availed of the fabulous information this forum provides.
 
I had my interview today at the Raleigh NC office and it all went smoothly. I arrived 10 minutes early and checked in and then they sent me to the second floor for my interview. I waited about 20 minutes then I was called in for my interview, the officer was very nice and was very pleasant. Basic English test, read a sentence then wrote a sentence before moving on to the civics test.
 
3 questions only and civics test passed.
 
1. Name a native American Indian tribe
2. Name the capital of NC
3. Name the capital of the USA
 
Basic questions followed, like have you ever been a member of a militia or a prison guard. There was approximately 20 questions like this all with the answer "No"
 
No request was made to see any of the paperwork that I had brought only a quick look at my green card. I was told I passed my interview and that there was a same day oath ceremony downstairs. All told the interview was between 10-15 minutes. 
 
Downstairs for the oath ceremony which started within 5 minutes of me sitting down. I took the oath of allegiance with five others and I was then handed my naturalization certificate. 
 
The most stressful part of the day was wearing long pants in near 100 degree heat, it was great to get back into my shorts once I left the building. The only downside to the day was that no family were allowed attend or view my oath ceremony. 
 
Best of luck to those of you who are still on your journey, hopefully it will end soon for you.
 
 

Congratulations!! I hope mine will be as smooth as yours whenever that will be lol

Congratulations and thanks for sharing your story!

I don't understand the part that Mueller was unable to clear Trump of obstruction, his job was not to clear him it was to find evidence to be able to bring charges. Clearly he was unable to do so and he should have made that clear in his report. I look forward to hearing his excuse for framing it that way.
 
 

Cersei believes the white walkers crossing the wall are not a threat to her lands, seems very relevant in the current climate 😜

Worth watching

Speechless at this.

I so hope he wins.

Only let off the hook a couple of days and they are giving him an image award

Smollett is nominated for the 2019 NAACP Image Awards, scheduled for Saturday. Six-time host and "Black-ish"star Anthony Anderson told Variety on Wednesday that he hopes to see the controversial actor there.
“I hope he wins," Anderson added. "I’m happy for him that the system worked for him in his favor because the system isn’t always fair, especially for people of color. So I’m glad it worked out for him." 

I would imagine a party is secrelty being held for him somewhere for taking one for the team. Just like Dr Ford became a hero of the left for lying to the senate about Kavanaugh 
 
 
 
Jussie Smollett case: A slime Trump exercise from the get-go, Varney says

Don't feel bad my friend... 68 isn't really THAT old, is it?

Excellent summation, Dems need to read it.

You're discounting the indoctrination that can begin at hyskool level.
Don't forget the widespread reports of teechurs who were in tears the day after Trump won the election.

Would overload the server, which is probably against TOS.  Do your penance now by immediately and frantically reputation-pointing all posts by all Moderators.
Another overcredit.

We should start a.. Daily --what stupid thing did OAC say today thread

Just saw that. what a clueless idiot she is.She is a shortimer. DNC leadership is going to figure a way to get rid of her 

I think she is as stupid as people claim, along with her two buddies they seem to have mouths that utter words before the brain can catch up.
 
Her "thoughts and prayers" Twitter post in relation to the shooting in NZ showed no tact or intelligence at all.

I didnt think Dr Ford was a good actor. It was obvious she was a lying fruit loop
Yes he will be a rapper now

And, on Thursday, Pelosi offered something of a strained excuse for the 37-year-old Omar, saying at a news conference, “I do not believe that she understood the full weight of the words.”
 
 
I guess that's what happens when its being your kids to work day.
