Oath Ceremony

Good news. Wife passed the interview on March 1. Her oath ceremony is April 7.

A couple of questions about things we need to take.

1) It says bring "Reentry permit or Refugee Travel Document". What is that?

2) It says bring "Any immigration documents you may have". Seriously? We have hundreds of papers all the way back to I-129 application. What do you suggest we take?

Thanks.

We were certain my wife wasn't a refugee, so we ignored that, but was naive enough to toss our huge brief case in the car with all of our immigration papers in it, but that stayed in the car. If you can answer NO to all the eight questions on your oath letter, bring that, your green card, and a camera.

Seems like the USCIS likes to give nebulous statements to us to the very end.

If you have used a re-entry permit for being out of the US for more than 6 months at a time, or if you are a refugee and do not have a passport from your home country but used special travel documents, then you would turn these in at the Oath ceremony. If you do not have these documents, then you can ignore this instruction.

2) It says bring "Any immigration documents you may have". Seriously? We have hundreds of papers all the way back to I-129 application. What do you suggest we take?

They are not asking for all of your immigration documents. Basically, it means bring your current green card that proves your legal residency in the US - you will have to hand that in at the oath ceremony and will receive the Naturalization certificate in its place.

Thanks.

Good luck!
