Prawninator got a reaction from DrGecko in N-400 August 2018 Filers
My journey is finally over, I was Naturalized just this morning! My boyfriend, his parents, his best friend and his wife, my "adoptive parents" (all 4 of them), a couple of other friends of mine and my best friend were all in attendance.
There was a line out the door, so if you're intending to get "good seats", @JonnyO, get there early. We got there at 9am, and already the line was out the door. 50 of us were being Naturalized from 17 different countries. I was the only one from Singapore. Half the congregation were from Mexico. They did a little Q&A session before the ceremony and once all of us arrived, they played a video for us, talked to us for a bit, had us stand when our countries were named, read a letter from the Secretary of Homeland Security, played a video of the President welcoming us as citizens to the US, gave us our certificates, and then we were golden.
They also gave us the opportunity to vote on the spot, so naturally, I did.
It was a great experience, but I'm glad it's all done. Now it's YOUR turn!

Congrats!
So I was looking for a cute gif and then I came across this one. Americans are so extra and now you can be too.
We don't really do presents anymore.

Prawninator reacted to Daisy.Chain in N-400 August 2018 Filers
Joint interview passed!!
I took in a portable file cabinet full of neatly organized proof of marriage, and the officer looked at the lease, medical/financial POA and that was it.
My husband passed the first six questions, wrote "The people elect Congress," (he thinks that was the sentence) and the rest of the interview without issue.
He came out of the interview area with a sad look on his face - I immediately knew he was kidding, but the others in the waiting room looked concerned!- Then he flashed a thumbs' up and everyone laughed.
I hope he gets the oath ceremony letter soon!

Prawninator reacted to cdneh in Put On Your Big-Boy Rants
To my utter horror, the flatmate sent me an email last night. She's been discharged home again, after five weeks. I wasn't sure whether I ought to have tried the hospital to talk to her, I wasn't sure she'd been told her sister was in the HDU. In the end, it proved impossible. On a 34 bed ward, there is the one cordless phone. There are no phones in patient rooms at all. Every time I've called another patient has been on it.
She had two falls the same day and used her medical alarm both times. The second time she hit her head pretty hard and wasn't making sense when the ambulance arrived so they packed her up and took her in.
She sounded pretty sad. Her sister has always met her at the house when she is sent back home, tossed the sour milk and brought in new, that sort of thing, but of course, this time that could not happen. She hasn't got her dog either at this stage and didn't mention having him back, and I chickened out on that score. She says she plans on going to the funeral on Thursday if she can organize transport.
She wanted to give my name and number as a NOK, even though I am here. I don't know that is a good idea. I thought her nephew, who live in town would be a better choice. I called her up, and let her talk for a couple of hours. It's all up a miserable situation.

Prawninator reacted to JonnyO in N-400 August 2018 Filers
I completed my interview today. The notice says it is a N-400 interview but I brought my wife along with me just in case the IO wanted to interview us together since we also have a pending I-751. When we started the IO said that we will be doing a joint I-751 so he will have my wife stay with me for that part and when he is ready to move on to the N-400 he will walk her out. The IO mentioned that local offices do not typically process I-751 since it is a completed at the Service Centers but he said since there is a backlog and he cannot proceed with the N-400 he will be doing both.
We proceeded with the I-751 and once completed we moved on to my N-400 without my wife. All the questions were routine and nothing out of the ordinary. We went through some of my infractions and evidences and updated my application with travel info since I applied for N-400. At the end he told me that I passed my test and he will be recommending both my application for approval. The I-751 will need to be electronically transferred to my local office before he approves it and the N-400 will be approved after he can have a second officer review it. He said that N-400 are normally reviewed by two people to avoid mistakes.
My field office has an oath ceremony every week and he said the next available one will be in Jan'19. But he said to hang tight and monitor my progress online for the approval.
