    Change of employment between the interview and oath is irrelevant to USCIS, so you don't need to update them in any way.

    When you fill the form, list the city and country. On the passport only the country is listed.

    They do not have that at the ceremony. BUT in case they do at the place you are going for oath, by all means do it! You are a citizen the millisecond that follows the last word of your oath, you can bolt away after the oath, demand your certificate, and make a beeline for the table that offers the passport forms.

    You’re right U.S. citizens are not required to report address changes to USCIS. The address notification heads up in the aforementioned status is for OP just in case, so he can get his oath ceremony notice from USCIS to attend his naturalization ceremony. Remember you don’t get to be a U.S. citizen until you take the oath of allegiance at the naturalization ceremony.

    You will get an invitation/appointment letter for your oath ceremony in the mail, after an approved interview, and after your ceremony date is actually scheduled.   You fill out the back portion of it and bring it with you (along with your green card) on the day of your oath.  
     
    Some people fill it out a few days before---some fill it out the day of.

    Sorry for the delay response but I was traveling. I saw the N-445 online on my USCIS account. I will probably receive the hard copy in the mail in the next couple of days. The N-445 is not given to you during the interview.
  11. Thanks

    Have fun since we are in the same office.
     
    The first interview results are out for Dec filers and I am happy to say I am one step closer to being a U.S. Citizen. Had my interview today, the overall process was very smooth and easy. I was in and out in roughly about 1.5 hrs, tough the checkin officer said they had a fire alarm earlier in the day so I think any other day the wait would be shorter. Process is pretty standard, you go through security and then checkin at the checkin counter where they hand out a token. Then you wait in the waiting area for your number to be called out. They don’t call out your number on a PA system so you have to be little alert but I felt it was no problem, they were pretty loud. Once my number was called out officer took me in the back room. She took copies of my Greencard, birth certificate, marriage certificate, passport. Then she started the interview with an Oath. As soon as we sat down she verified my details like name, address, etc. She took my photo and fingerprints and then started the interview with reading and writing: Where is the capital of US. Next she moved onto the civic test, with some basic questions.
    ·        What is the supreme law of the land?
    ·        Who did the United States fight in World War II?
    ·        What do we show loyalty to when we say the Pledge of Allegiance?
    ·        What is the capital of your state?
    ·        Who vetoes bills?
    ·        What is an amendment?
    Once done she went through my application with me and concluded with  the golden words we all wait to hear i.e I am recommending your application for approval. You will get a letter with the date for the Oath ceremony.

    I think you're thinking of unemployment as government assistance.  It's not. It's insurance paid by employers, not the government.

    Basically, all the affidavit of support means is that you (the immigrant) won't become a public charge (by trying to get welfare or what have you). If you somehow managed to receive government benefits, your spouse would have to pay it back.
    Once the affidavit of support has been accepted, though, they don't refer back to it in any future process. So you don't need to worry if your spouse is no longer making as much money as they were when they filed the affidavit. It won't affect anything.
    And once you're a citizen, the affidavit of support no longer applies at all.

    A lot of you are getting anxious about stuff in the mail and that's normal.  Let me show you something that I use which is quite useful to preview mail coming to me.
    https://informeddelivery.usps.com/box/pages/intro/start.action
     
    With informed delivery I get a photo of most of my legit mail the day or following day after it has been posted with the condition that it meets this criteria,
     " * Images are only provided for letter-sized mail pieces that are processed through USPS' automated equipment."
     
    This way I know many days in advance and may help some of your anxiety.  Beware, the USPS tracking + informed delivery feature is quite annoying if you have a lot of letters and packages coming your way. It takes a day or few to activate once you sign up.

    The law is clearly defined. If by November 21st and your marriage is not exactly 2 years old, you will get a conditional 2 year GC. It doesn’t even matter if your marriage is 1 years, 11 months, 3 weeks and 6 days old by the time of interview. There is NO provision in the law I’m aware of that permits officers to issue 10yr GC to applicants who are few days or months short of fulfilling the marriage duration requirements. To be on the safe side, my best advise to you would be to reschedule your interview for a later day when you must have fully met the time requirement. Yes you may have waited so long for this day, yes it’s gonna prolong the process even more but at the end of the day it’s a wise decision and a cost savings option cos you’ll bypass the ROC process and move straight to naturalization when u become qualified.

    I'd obviously do whatever they ask me in a letter e.g. gather evidence or go to an interview. I was just wondering if my status would change to something different when they do request one of the other. Doesn't look like it, so thanks for the answer. And thanks for the informed delivery tip. I did not  know that exists.
