Yes this is a problem as we go every year for several months and it takes about 40 hours flying to get there. Thanks for your suggestions as it is very helpful.

What does that mean exactly? " You will not have to reapply"?

My wife has her interview on September 27th in Salt Lake City. From the timelines, it looks like it is about a month between the interview and the oath ceremony in the Salt Lake City Utah Service Center. We have a charity in Nepal and the yearly trip with many other guests is scheduled for the 8th of November & we have a two-month-old baby so need both of us to make the grueling 40-hour trip. This will not leave us time to get her a passport before we leave to re-enter the US as I would assume that her Green Card will not work after the oath ceremony.? It looks like the interview is almost exactly one month after the i nterview. There appears to be no way to extend either the interview or oath ceremony until January 2nd when we will return that I can find on theUSCIS site. Is there something that I am missing here, is there a way to postpone this? If we cancel this process will we be able to pay the $750 again and start it when we return? Will it be harder the second time? She is essential to our charity and I can't do it for her in Nepal. If we have 21 people going who have bought airfare it looks like we can't reschedule them either. Looking for real answers here and I hope that I have missed something.

I would assume that she would still be able to use her Nepali passport.

I am not sure if there is any way to check the Utah (Salt Lake) Field office times to see what would be normal. In Utah is it normal to have same-day oath taking? Does it ever happen?

We are at the Salt Lake City Field Office in Utah. Does that make a difference?

My wife has her interview on Sept. 27th 2023 (really fast as we submitted 7/25/2023) and it looks like the ceremonies are mostly 2 months later.. But some seem to take place on the same day as the interview. My wife and I will be in Nepal from October 24th to Jan 10th-ish for our yearly trip with our charity and I have already scheduled as we lead the group there. My questions are: 1- is there any control over the date of taking the oath? 2- When we go to the interview will they be able to tell us when the oath ceremony is scheduled? 3- What are the chances of same day as the interview oath-taking for my wife? Thanks!

Yes for 7 years, since 2016.

Trying to get his figured out the best way possible and before I submit this I want to make sure that I check right box if one is any easier than the other. We have been married for 7 years and one child a month old

So when selecting boxes in section one which one is best to check? Thanks! Randall

My wife and I were married in Oregon 7 years ago and we have a baby together now (3 weeks). Originally we didn't want her to become a citizen as we wished to live in Nepal together (she has a green card). But things are changing and it seems like it might be a good idea so we would like to start the paperwork. I did the K1 visa all on my own. IS there a list or forum here that deals with this specifically that I can look to (like I did for the K1)? Thanks!
