Got my Oath schedule today. So 3 days after interview. It’s May 8th.

Very good. The lady was extremely nice and easy going. We talked about how she vacationed in my country a few times etc etc and my wife's job(shes a federal agent too) overall it was 10/10.

Had my interview 3 days ago 4/19 and Oath was scheduled this morning for Wed May 8th at 8am. So, 3 days from interview to Oath Scheduled. Thanks to the good Lord!

No I was 5 years rule so I went by myself.

MY wife would probably divorce me if i asked her to cancel this trip that she has been wanting to go on for years and its our anniversary and everything is already paid for and literally all our family is going already so cancelling is not an option. LOL I am not in a rush I know the IO said to just reschedule people do it all the time if they have to travel she said its pretty common but if i could get a passport in a few days and pay a hundred bucks or two i don't mind just to be done with it. Nah but I see they are doing it within 30-45 days which would push me right at the edge.

Had interview today and passed here in Houston. Traveling at the end of May to go out of the country (MY WIFE DOES NOT WANT TO CANCEL THIS TRIP). Assuming my Oath is next month, Has anybody successfully taken the Oath and applied for an emergency/urgent passport right after due to already booked traveled plans? If so, could you please explain the process and where I would need to go in order to do this, if this situation comes up. I would have rescheduling it as a last option as I am ready to be done with this immigration journey! Thanks

Were you able to do this locally in Houston?

Thanks and congrats to you too!

Nah i brought a binder with tax transcripts etc and didn't bother to look at anything I brought. She did ask the question do you owe any taxes and of course I said no

Submitted date 1/23/2024 Interview Sceduled 3/14/2024 Interview date 04/19/2024 Well had my interview first thing this am in Houston. Time was 7am but arrived 15 mins before and checked in, did biometrics etc after that. Got called maybe 10 minutes later or so by the IO. She was very very very nice. Did civics test and got all 6 first try, very easy questions. Then the yes no and we chatted a bit. Asked my wife's name, kids name where I live etc. It was very easy going and we joked and laughed a bit about somethings. Approved on the spot. Waiting for Oath to be scheduled. I informed her that I have traveled plans at the end of May and she said no big deal just reschedule your Oath, they make it easy to do this. Overall, 10/10 experience with the office and this officer.

Have my interview in the AM. Do they ask why you want to become a citizen etc? the only thing I can thing of is to say that I want to vote lol

Do they always ask why I want to become a citizen? I mean to Vote would be a reasonable answer? what else can be said for this answer? My interview is tomorrow so i don't need any surprises.

I might be overthinking this but I just came back to the US after spending a few days in my country. My N-400interview is in a few days. Should I upload additional evidence to my profile before the interview stating I was out the country or should I just bring it up in the interview?

Gotcha Thanks !

Hi VJ, MY interview is coming up in a month so I am trying to gather everything that I need. I was reading N400 instructions regarding tax documents and saw this: I am filing under 5 year rule: "Tax Returns and Overdue Taxes. Bring photocopies of income tax returns that you filed with the IRS for the past 5 years, or 3 years if filing for naturalization on the basis of marriage to a U.S. citizen. Tax returns are not required for every case. However, USCIS strongly encourages you to bring your tax returns; especially if you are filing based on marriage to a U.S. citizen or have traveled outside the United States for a period that lasted 6 months or more. You can request copies of Federal tax documents at your local IRS office or www.irs.gov. You may also bring an original IRS tax transcript listing tax information for the past 5 years (3 years if filing on the basis of marriage to a U.S. citizen). To obtain a free IRS tax transcript, visit www.irs.gov. Select “Tools” and then select “Order a Return or Account Transcript.” For assistance, you can also call the IRS at 1-800-908-9946." For my N400 app I uploaded the tax returns that you get back form say turbo tax etc and not any transcripts. Do you think this will be suffice? Also I was looking at "return transcripts" on the IRS website and they only give you 3 years of information. The "Account transcripts" give you multiple years" Should I just print out the account transcripts and bring that to my interview ? Also what all did you guys have to bring to the interview evidence wise besides green card and passport etc. Is there anything in particular that I should bring? Thank you

Submitted my Application 01/23/2024 Randomly checked my USCIS page and Interview has been Scheduled for 04/19/024.

Submitted my Application 01/23/2024 Randomly checked my USCIS page and Interview has been Scheduled for 04/19/024 here in Houston at 7 in the morning.

Curious as to what he will say he had to say.

Ok thanks! I'll give it a day or two

Congrats on your approval! Just curious for question 3 did you only have to say one country or you had to list all three of the countries( German,Japan,Italy)?

Yes uploaded the statement via unsolicited evidence via pdf but I cannot see the statement under documents. Not sure if it takes a while to show up under my documents or will it even show up at all. Basically just trying to see if it was properly submitted.

Thanks for the response. I uploaded evidence stated it was private legal sale in Texas. I dont see the document uploaded. Does this take time to show up on my usics account?

I live in TX, no Bill of Sale is needed for firearm transactions.
