I had my interview for AOS in spring 2008, we came prepared with stacks of paperwork. The interviewer was friendly, she was in training so she was conferring often with her trainer. The interview was less than 30 mins, the interviewer said they have only 30 mins per applicant, and that includes their time to fill out case paperwork, so it is very short. She asked how we met and about the marriage. We did not have photos from the marriage which troubled her (it was Buddhist), but when we gave her our mortgage approval letter, she was happy and that is all that she needed. We spent the rest of the time with her talking about house repairs.

Yay.
Not much trouble at all. I was a little worried because we don't have any joint assets, and the only thing I had to show for that was putting the family on my employers health insurance. So we showed the insurance cards and a bill from the clinic for my wife's checkup.
I also forgot to bring pictures of the wedding. DOH
Anyway, it was pretty much a breeze. We had to help the lady put all the name changes in order (2 for my wife, 3 for her son). She was a little confused about that, and On had to explain that changing your name is no big deal in Thailand and everybody does it.
I think she knew we were legit and was just trying to satisfy her checklist.
Questions asked:
Who proposed to whom and when?
Age difference?
How did you meet?
The rest was formality, she made On and son answer all the formal questions again that are on the AOS checklist. Then she said she'd approve it, took our empl... read complete review

I didn't really know what to expect, but by having all the items that they requested, our interview went very smoothly. The gentleman even gave a heads up about a very nice small plane service between Portland and Seattle  All in all, it ended up being like talking with a friend. He verified information in our application, and talked to our friend and translator for some things. Nothing to be scared of!

This is a report of my naturalization interview and oath ceremony at Portland, Oregon. I have included parking information which I couldn't find out beforehand and which would have been less stressful to know.
The interview was at 1.30pm on December 1st and as like just about everyone else in Oregon the only practical way to get to the office was to drive. However the office is situated an easy walk 2 or 3 blocks from the Portland Greyhound bus station, the Amtrack station and light rail if you choose public transport. As I was driving I looked before hand for parking information and all I could find was there are parking meters and parking lots nearby. There are indeed meters all around the office and surrounding streets but I couldn't find an empty parking space, so I used the parking lot one block from the USCIS office on NW Glisan. If you decide to park there it is cheaper after 1pm but still more expensive than meter parking. The address of the USCIS office is 511 NW Broad... read complete review

We had our interview for AOS on Portland, OR today December 2nd, 2009. We had the appointment at 8 am. We arrived to the office at 7:30 am. Found good parking across the street from Union Station, 2 blocks from the USCIS office. The guards were very nice. We pass the security screening, we can bring cell phones, bags and electronics. Just take them out the bags and pockets before going to security check. Then we went to room 106 and leave the appointment notices in a basket outside the room. Wait in the room to be called. At 8 o\'clock the officer took our appointment letters from the basket and called us. Very nice young officer. he greeted us and took us to his desk. He took us the oath and asked for our IDs (passports). He opened our big file that he already had and asked some questions: if I arrived on the day I said on the form, went to the Yes and No questions in the I-485 form. Asked if we had engagement rings, and we showed both engagement and wedding rings in our hands. Then a... read complete review
