  1. Well, we really made a mistake in buying the tickets to travel in early August. Assumed there would be an oath ceremony every month and they don't fill up. Wrong! Wrong!

    Went to an infopass (there is a super nice IO in Jax, so despite the drive we don't mind doing the infopass business) and were told that O would have been eligible for the oath ceremony on May 20th, but it's full, so he is in line for the next one. Normally they have one every month, but for some reason they won't in June. So the next one is July 16th! That won't leave enough time to get a U.S. passport and then get a tourist visa for Ghana, let alone dual citizenship.

    So, looks like we're going to have to ask for a postponed oath date (for after he is back from Ghana in October) OR pay lots of moolah to change a non-refundable international ticket. This messes everything up, as we were also planning to move to Miami. Well, live and learn.... The only bright spot is that he won't have the stress and expense of getting a Ghana tourist visa. I just hope we don't end up in a USCIS multi-year oath ceremony quest.

    Myself and my wife had our interviews in Jacksonville Florida on the 29th of April (one day after you),5 year eligibility on 05/09/2010.
