I was looking at oath ceremonies around my area and there are two programmed. One of them is scheduled for late February which is way too soon but the next Naturalization Oath ceremony after that takes place on Friday July 24th, 2009 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. The timeframe for me from filing my N-400 in late January to Late july is aprox. 6 months and thus seems about right.

That's routine word USCIS is using for Interview.

In most case, it will be enough with initial interview, and no further interview is required.

But if USCIS adjudicator find some issue, or interviewee doesn't have the documentation USCIS adjudicator is looking for,

USCIS may schedule another interview. But it's very rare cases.

Oh, if you fail the civic and English test, you will get second interview, too. :whistle:
