Thank you very much internetkafe and wannabe_texan.

deep123, if I were you I wouldn't transfer my interview to newark. It is the most unpredictable and busy places of all the centers people have filed at on this thread. if somehow you can maintain your residence in CT until interview you should seriously think about doing that. maybe just apply for change of address and give your other friend or relative's address or something for a couple of months...

by the way, i called the uscis again, and the lady said that i am still in the queue for interview date. they said that they put me on the wait list on July 20th, however no information on where they are at in the waiting list processing wise...however she said that i should get my CFR letter soon, they did not mail it out yet but it sounded like they would do that soon...

lets see...so i m suggesting whoever from one of the newark filers on this thread calls the uscis next should ask when was his/her application put in the queue and how far his/her application is in the queue....i will call them up once again next week to find out the same about my case...

Roosh

Thanks Roosh for the sugession I will just do that. Allready I had enough uncertanity with USCIS.

I think I need to call them if I dont get my IL by end of this week. I know its somewhere in this forum but are you guys calling (800) 375-5283? How do you get to the 2nd level IO - Just tell them all you have is an A Numer?

I may have to do this, too. I had my bios even before you, got the yellow letter on Aug 8 and nothing since.

Let's hope our IL's didn't get lost in the mail.

Thanks wannabe_texan, I am nervously going over the paperwork, I will be taking and questioning myself over whether I know the answers to the 100 questions.

Hopefully I can report back positively tomorrow, and I echo your well wishes to red diablo, I am sure you will do well and all will be fine. At least the end of the journey is almost within our grasp now.

Imzadi, for Atlanta DO, May applicants have started to receive interview letters for 2nd week of October. I think we will get IL soon.

I am expecting we should get IL by Sept 2nd week for Oct last week interview. Let us hope for the best.

Jayde... You will do good. All the best.

Thats just not cricket old chap! bringing up that the better team on the day took the ashes!

Like you I have been absent from the old dart since the 70ies and they appear to be making me use my country of birth, so I will be standing as a brit, maybe.... havent felt like one for a very long time and if we are at the same ceremony they may do a double take, if we are both bobbing up and down like a clown at a funfair.

We went through the security about 30 minutes before the appointment time, this is always a little more difficult for hubby and his pacemaker, checked in with the appointment letter at the desk and was told to wait in the room to the right where I would be called by name. The appointment letter mentioned to allow 2 hours but I was finished in 20 - 30 minutes.

We watched as lots of families and individuals were called to the windows, with a number system and others were being called by name and disappearing through some wooden doors. I was called by name and we both got up but the officer told us my husband he was not needed so he waited there.

I followed the officer and when we arrived at his office he introduced himself asked me to remain standing in order to administer the oath to tell the truth, then he drew the file towards him and took the top papers off. He asked to see my greencard and passport and then hubby's birth certificate and the documents that I had sent copies of. He was checking off the forms that I had submitted and went through each question, either ticking or writing comments as he went. He asked how the marriage was inquiring if we were happy but mainly the questions were those that I had answered on the forms.

He got me to sign on a couple of pages, and also on the photos, which he removed from the little baggy that I had placed them in when I sent them.

He asked 6 questions from the booklet, like who was the next in line after the President and the VP, I know he asked the other 5 but dont remember exactly which they were, all I know is my memory didnt fail me, as I had feared. He was pleasant and professional, and by then I had got over some of the nerves that I was feeling. He had me read "when is Columbus Day" and write that it is in October.

He asked about my children and questioned our current address and the time we had spent outside the USA, he seemed worried when he couldnt find the country code for Australia and discussed the fact that I was already a dual citizen being British born, so I guess my question is answered about when to stand up.

He gave me a receipt and we left feeling happy that in the next weeks or months I should receive a letter with an appointment for an Oath Ceremony. These are held at various times of the day on a Wednesday at the Oakland Park Office.

Success, my file that was started in 2004 and has all the documents that we have tendered over the last 5 years is stamped approved.

hey Jayde

good on ya

the original certifictes were all thats bothering me.

I need my wifes BC both our divorce certificates. wedding certificate think thats about it.

trust the govt to schedule a wednesday in middle of work week and 250 mile round trip.

fridays would be great time to relax and enjoy the moment .

makes no sense at all to me
