I am an American now. I had my ceremony thi s morning and all went well. It was a wonderful moment.

We were about 120 people attending from all over the world, some very old and others not so old.

While we were waiting, they played some songs from the Eagles, Bruce Springsteen etc...Everybody was relaxed and in a good mood. They opened the ceremony with a video, Faces of America, representing the diversity of the US population. Later, the director of the US immigration office came and gave a speech explaining the responsibilities coming with the citizenship and finally administered the Oath.

Now that we were all citizens, they showed a video of Pres. Obama welcoming us as "fellow Americans" which I found to be pretty emotional and yes Tom you are right concluded with video of US sights and sounds over "I am a proud American" from Lee Greenwood. (That last part was really cheesy)

Anyhow overall the USCIS did a great job with this ceremony.

Thank you again for the support, my immigration journey is over. Good luck to all of the ones still waiting.

Congratulations! Enjoy being a dual now. B)

I never inquired about gaining citizenship in either Venezuela nor Colombia, the latter would be my choice, but understand it would have been a lot easier than bringing my wife here. We have no intentions of leaving the USA, but is nice to know, we have other countries to go to and are even welcomed.

Having a DUAL citizenship is NOT a requirement in our government,but rather a CHOICE. :)
