Hi Bislig2alabama and Everyone,

Good luck with your upcoming interview and oath ceremony too. Hope all goes well for you there in completing your journey.

Lol...I wouldn't mind babysitting, as I like children and have a son of my own (2 months)....

The only problem here: I live in New York State...too far away from Georgia....

Likewise, I (and others on VJ, I'm sure) have the same problem regarding babysitting for our children while we meet with the USCIS....

Hmm...maybe we should all start a "Anyone interested in babysitting during the interview and oath ceremony?" message thread...lol...(just kidding)

Seriously though, I hope you are able to make the necessary arrangements for babysitting your children for those days.

Good luck with your interview and test. If you don't succeed in finding a babysitter, I can reassure you that there were young children at the office for both my test/interview and for the Citizenship Oath ceremony. It would be nice if you qualify for the same day oath -which Atlanta sometimes offers if you interview early in the day.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

I won't mind babysitting, but i need to relay this first to my husband bcoz it will means I'm not babysitting my husband for that day, If I accept it... hehehe I am a mother of two boys, I got only one of my son now at the age of 8. And I got my cousin from the Philippines visiting here now until December, hopefully I'll finished till Dec for my citizenship & passport(or not) so me and my son could go back home to Phils. with my cousin for New Years celebration.

Though... I live in Winder, Barrow County .... about 1hr or not more than 2 hrs (in a terrible traffic) to reach downtown atlanta. All roads are in highway it just that, where in Rural area of North East Georgia. (F) Let me know, since it's only 1 day event.

But all the best, and hopefully you get the oath the same day too, since you got a very early interview.

Thanks, we will just take the boys with us. We will stay in the Hampton Inn Northlake the night before and go to the interview fresh in the morning. I can take the boys outside if there is a problem.

Pray that you are correct about the afternoon oath. That would be a real blessing.

Thanks for everything. The boys will go with us. If there are any problems I will take them outside. We have walkie-talkies to communicate wwith each other when we go to the malls. I can leave and she can call me when she is ready. The inn is so very close to the office, I think they will connect.

May you continue to be a blessing to others

Hi, it's nice to see members posting from the same state as I am. I am from Walker County of Alabama. And I'd like to say good luck for your upcoming interview. I am also an American citizen aspirant and sent my application in the 28th of August. Since you mentioned about the inn you're staying close to the office, do you mind telling me which one you're cheking in? Hopefully, I will be having my interview sched before the year ends. I am currently waiting for my biometrics schedule which I am crossing my fingers that I'll get it next week.

Anyway, I have a 19-month old boy and we're taking him with us. My husband will take care of him while I'm inside and I hope he's not going to give him headache, especially now that he's so mobile. I am having a hard time finding a baby-sitter too especially that he's so attached to me...dread the time when he starts school, can't picture how it's going to go.

Anyway, good luck and hope u don't forget to post your success here, moreso that we're going to be interviewed in Atlanta. Just so curious how they do theirs.

Good Luck!!!

Great to hear from a neighbor. The name of the inn is Hampton Inn Atlanta -Northlake. It was a suggestion from another visa-journey member. She has just completed her interview there. I checked it on the net and it is very close.

Then we will visit the International Food store there. Stock up on Filipino food

Will continue to post activity on the time-line page. Most are completed in less than five months. The time-line page is where we loated the Filipina who suggested the Inn and gave us an idea about the Atlanta center. check out that page at the top of Visajourney's page.

Yes, we know where the biometrics office is here in B'ham. Been there a few times, Ha HA

I know some about Walker County, Jasper. Attended a junior college there, many years past!

Do you know about the Filipina/American Association here? Also a Filipino couple runs a Balikbayon Box service. They pick up all over Alabama.

Take care and thanks for the connection
