    Had my (administrative, not courthouse) oath this past Wednesday, there were men in 'casual suits' so no ties, and others wore a jacket over a collared shirt with nice jeans or non-matching trousers. No one was dressed super formally, and there was not much in the way of traditional dress iirc. There were some ladies in modest Islamic attire, and I want to say there was a woman in a shalwar kameez behind me but I don't remember super well. If you want to wear your kilt, absolutely wear it. You might be the best dressed of your group but you certainly won't be inappropriately dressed. If your oath is as a courthouse I guess there's a possibility it might lean more smartly dressed overall but a kilt would still be appropriate!

    Oath completed this morning! It was very anticlimactic at the USCIS field office - they were doing what the officer called an "abbreviated" ceremony every half hour so it was just the oath in a big group and no other fluff. Got my certificate and now all I've got to do is the passport application, update SSA with my status, and register to vote. Such a relief to be done with USCIS stuff now!

    Spoke too soon - just got a status update. My oath has been de-scheduled "due to unforeseen circumstances" so now I'm back to 'Oath will be scheduled'. What a bummer. I'm so disappointed! Hope I don't have to wait too long I already scheduled other stuff around this appointment. Oh well.

    As Marrienne said, they give you a sheet there and then saying that you passed your civics and are recommended for approval. (It's a series of empty checkboxes for different kinds of scenarios but ofc mine was just checked on passing civis and 'congrats you're recommended for approval!'). I am pretty sure my status updated the same day to say that I was in line for oath scheduling, too. I didn't get a questionnaire given to me, but it looks like that's attached to the oath schedule letter which is yet to arrive (but I could see the PDF online)

    Yep, I'll be back in Milwaukee. Someone else in WI has theirs on the 14th iirc but that's at the courthouse - mine's at the USCIS field office. I was actually sat near the door to the naturalization ceremony room there while I was waiting for my interview lol.

    Status updated today - they scheduled my oath and sent a notice. Looks like I'm set for September 13th for the oath! Exciting!
  28. yoda one for me
    I got about 5 weeks between 'interview was scheduled' and the interview date. Based on what I remember seeing other posting, I'm under the impression 4-5 weeks is a pretty normal amount of time between the notice and the actual interview.

    Had my N400 interview in Milwaukee today - super chill. I don't remember the civics questions I was asked lol but it was easy because I'd been sure to study up on them. I brought with me originals of various docs I had uploaded as well as 2022 taxes, and up to date financials, but the officer didn't ask for any of that. All I had to hand over was my driver's license, passport, old and new green cards. He kept my old conditional green card. So yeah, glad it was a simple matter and straightforward. I felt pretty nervous once I was in the waiting area even though I'd felt confident for weeks before 😆 Just waiting for my oath to be scheduled now!

    Oh cool! That's not too bad of a wait to be done with all this!
  31. yoda one for me
    Congrats! Did they give you an idea of how long the wait for the oath is at Milwaukee?

    You've contradicted yourself and don't have a timeline filled out which makes it hard to help you. Which is it? If you got your 10 year green card - the actual plastic card - before you and your spouse separated (i.e while the marriage was still intact and you were actually together as a couple) then you're probably fine and can apply for Naturalization at 5 years without issue. If you ONLY have your expired card and a temporary extension letter, you will need to contact USCIS and convert to a divorce waiver (and send them a copy of the divorce decree). You 100% need the decree for this and you 100% need to act on this so your ROC doesn't get approved while you wait. It is critical that your conditions are removed correctly - if you were applying based on continuing marriage to a USC you now need a divorce waiver. If you sit quiet and let them approve it interview-free after the date the divorce has gone through, you will not be able to naturalize as your green card will have been issued wrongly! Citizenship should no longer be on your radar until you can tidy up the Removal of Conditions process and ensure your 10 year card is issued correctly for your current status.

    My ROC case just got approved so looks like I definitely won't be having a combo interview in a few weeks 😆 Nice to actually know!
  34. yoda one for me
    I just updated my entry in the google sheet but here we go - Applied for ROC at the end of March 2022, assigned to the dreaded LIN. Biometrics were waived. Applied for N400 January 2023. (Interview scheduled for late August.) No update to the ROC until today Aug 1 2023 - New card being produced. No ROC or Combo interview!
  35. yoda one for me
    I just received a notification from my status tracker app that New Card is Being Produced. They approved my ROC without interview 🥲
