Thanks No-Ten i did pass (what a relief lol). The lady I had was very nice and the questions were easy questions. They are all very nice there. We arrived early and went in about 25 minutes before my appointment (10:55 am). Cleared security, gave my letter to the lady security told me to sat down and was called about 10 minutes later. I was out ot there at 11:20 am. While I was in there we chatted a bit as well so very much at ease. No-Ten just to let you know the building that my GPS told us was not the right building, it was next door and they do have a sign for Homeland Security just to let you know it is a white building with a flagpole in front of it.

still waiting for my passport :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

Same here :crying: I don't quite feel like a citizen since i have no proof and the idea of my certificate (only evidence of citizenship) floating around somewhere doesn't make me feel good. Once i have the passport in hand, Then I can feel like a citizen.

When did you applied for your passport ? and where ? I applied on the 22nd of july here in Manhattan .

I applied for mine on the 15th of July and still waiting. The lady at the passport office said it will take 4 to 6 weeks so I've got 3 more weeks till I start worrying. I didn't think it was necessary to pay an extra $100 for the expedited service since I'm not travelling till December.
