Yay! Congratulations!!! I am glad the interview went very well for you! Portland is the best!
You should have told me and you could stay with us overnight in our apartment in Portland, so you did not have to drive back the next day for the Oath Ceremony Good luck tomorrow. Drive safely. The Ceremony is very nice. Have fun!
Blessings to you and Happy Thanksgiving!
Hi!
I just came back from my interview and oath ceremony. It wen great! Just took like 5 min. Everybody here in Portlandia are so nice! The IO welcomed me with a big smile. She asked the usual questions about travel, and marriage. Just questions from the form. I told her I traveled to Mexico and that I had a speed ticket. She already knew about my trip and did not care about the ticket. She asked me to sign my pictures and at the end asked me the civics/history questions.
Who vetoes bills? The president
What is the Law of the Land? The Constitution
What is the Capital of my State? Salem
Who do we show loyalty to when we say the Pledge of Allegiance? The flag of the United States
Who did the US fight in World War II? Japan, Germany, and Italy
What is an amendment? An addition to the Constitution
For English test, she asked me to read: Where is the White House?
And write: The White House is in Washington, D.C.
I had my oath Ceremony that afternoon at 2 pm. There were 50 new citizens from 23 different countries. We registered to vote after the ceremony.
It went so fast I just cannot believe it is over!
Good luck everybody!!! We got this!!!!
