    theblooray got a reaction from STO Overland in Houston N-400 Filers   
    Good afternoon. 
     
    Our oath was held at the MO Campbell Education Center. I got there at around 7am sharp. That's the appointment time on my form. Parking area is quite chaotic but plenty of parking spots available. I'd nonetheless suggest getting there early. The lines were long, but they moved fairly fast. From standing in line to getting checked in, took about 45mins.
     
    The lines are designated by table numbers, starting with 0 up to 4. So that's FIVE lines including line 0. I was on line 1, which lead to Table 1. The lady checked my oath notice and the filled and signed forms, and handed me a colored card which says what Table I'm supposed to come to AFTER the oath. This colored card also contains seating information inside the auditorium. 
     
    We sat, and I desperately needed to pee, so PLEASE PEE BEFORE YOU GET IN. The judge finally came in, and we went through the whole process. It was very nice, warm, welcoming and passionate. I left the auditorium in another line, and it was all a bit crammed but orderly nonetheless. We went back to that original table where we'd checked in, and the lady confirmed all details on the naturalization certificate. Boom, all done, and back home by 11. So a total of 4 hours. 
     
    APPLICANTS ALLOWED ONLY. I know this is a life-changing event for many, but please leave small children at home. 
     
    Good luck to everyone!

    Honestly a lot of these updates are system generated based on what barcodes the CO scans and what they click on their screens. It's all over the place. My ROC has had no updates, N400 says interview will be scheduled a few seconds after the end of the interview. I was told by my CO that I was approved for both. So...I wouldn't put too much thought into it. If you've passed, then you just wait it out for that oath notice

    Had my N400/i751 combo interviews at Houston Gears Rd location today. Everything went nice and smooth. Had an 11.45am appointment and I was attended to by a lovely lady at around 12.40pm. She did ask where my spouse was and I informed my wife was with our baby out in the car. So she waived her presence. Asked some personal questions, reminded that the i751 needed to be approved first before moving to the N400. Some more personal questions, dates of birth and marriage etc, and then came the civics test and some more general questions about loyalty to the US etc. All in all, lasted a total of 15 mins. At the end I asked to get a quick ADIT stamp as I intend to travel very soon, and was kind enough to let me have that stamp. Got home, and noticed the N400 case status change to Oath Will Be Scheduled. There's no update on the i751 as yet but that should change over the next day or two.

    Just had my i751 and N400 combo interview. CO had asked about my spouse but I advised she was out in the car waiting with our daughter. At that point she waived my wife's presence. Asked about some personal information, dates and places of birth, dates of marriage etc, probably lasting about 5 mins. And then we went to the N400 civics test. And some more usual questions that you get asked on the DS260. Read and wrote a sentence, and the whole thing lasted 15 mins. N400 online now updated to Oath Will Be Scheduled. The CO was also kind enough to get me a stamp on my passport that allows me to travel, which I will do very soon, WITHOUT calling for an INFOPASS appointment. All in all, a good day.

    Good evening folks. N400 and i751 combo interviews were held today at Houston. The CO was kind enough to get me an ADIT stamp as well. The n400 case online has updated to 'Oath will be scheduled'. The i751 has not changed as of yet. But CO did mention I was approved for both.

    Someone in Colorado is in the exact same position. Pending i751 with an N400 scheduled. They did the interview, got approved for n400, and were told to wait till their i751 is approved before proceeding any further.

    Of course, haha. Can imagine many people not well in the know, showing up expecting a single n400 interview only to possibly be hit with the big question. Where's your spouse? Not here? Oh we can conduct your n400 interview but reschedule your ROC another day so you can come in with your spouse.

    Congrats! That's two thus far from August 2021. When did you file your N400 and when did it's status change to 'actively reviewing'?
