Just came back from my oath ceremony now. The honolulu district office has a ceremony every week. So there were only forty people or so. Anyways, it's finally over!

I would like to thank everybody in the forum. I found this forum when I was preparing for my green card interview 5 years ago. Unlike many people in this forum, I applied for my GC in the employment-based category. But since I chose CP instead of AOS, information i obtained from this forum was very helpful.

I wish you all good luck!

Here is the full details of our interview and Oath

Interview Part:

Our Interview was at 8:45 in the morning and we arrived at the DO at 8:15 or so. (Just so that people know, Porland OR DO does not have a specific parking for USCIS customers, you have to park along, NW Hoyt, or Park Avenue or NW Glisan. There are a number of meters around the building and they are mostly open). After passing security, walk straight to room 106 and place the N-400 interview letters in the box on the left had side. The IO look for the letter there and then call your name.

I was called by the IO at 8:40. She was very professional and nice too. First she swore me before I sat down. As I sat down I noticed the 1-2 inch folder on her table (think that must be all the docs that I had sent to INS/BCIS/USCIS over the course of 12 years I guess :)). She said that she would go through the tests first and then go through the application. She printed out the questions from the computer. 6 Civics/History Questions. Here are the questions.

1.How many amendments does the constitution have?

2. What group of people was taken to America and sold as slaves?

3. Why did the colonists fight the British?

4.What is the highest court in the US.

5. Who makes laws?

6. Who is the vice-president?

She then asked me to read "Who can Vote" and then to write "Citizens 18 and older can vote"

After that she said that I had passed the interview and she went through the application. I had made one additional international travel since filing my n400 and gave her an updated page for that. She just jotted down the travel dates and made a comment "you haven't traveled much". I told her about the traffic tickets as I had said No to citations in my original application ( I had 3 tickets one speeding, one parking and one obstructing an intersection - all less than $500). I told her that I did not have court certified copies but did have the original tickets so offered her copies and she took them and noted down the 3 tickets along with the fees on the application. She said it was not a problem as it was less than $500. Then asked me to sign the application in 2 places and also on the side of the Photographs. Finally she gave me the document saying that I passed the interview and was being recommended for Naturalization. She then asked the big question, do you want to do the Oath today, I said ofcourse. She then printed out the Same day oath letter and asked me to be back @ 1:50pm for a 2pm oath. She then said wished me luck and we were out @ 8:55.

Oath Part:

Arrived back at 1:40 and found a parking spot on NW Hoyt. We where in the building waiting in room 117 @ 1:45. (Couple of things to note. 1. if you have children, make sure you have someone else other than the people going for the oath ceremony there to take care of them, 2. No Jean or shorts :( ). @ 1:55, they took us all to the 2nd floor and asked the people taking the oath to wait outside. Then another officer arrived and she took our oath letters and Green cards (I noticed that almost everyone that I saw in the waiting in the morning where there :). Once inside, we sat in the front, went through a few videos 1. Faces of America, 2. President Obama's message, 3.forgot the other 2 :(. Then the immigrant judge had a few words and swore us in. She then called us one by one and gave us our Naturalization certificate. The comment that the IO made was to make sure that the naturalization certificate data was correct before we left the building. She asked us to register to Vote, update the Social Security Office about the change in status and apply for a US passport (The main Post office for Portland is next door). We where then allowed to take pictures in front of the flag.

After 13 years from F1->H1B->GC we are finally done with USCIS and US Citizens.

Passport application:

We then filled up our passport applications and walked next door to the PO (Passport applications are only accepted until 3:30pm M-F), submitted the application and was told that it takes about 4-6 weeks to get the passports back. took a copy of the Naturalization certificates and then paid $135 (2 checks 1. for $110 to the State department and 2. $25 to the Post master) for the passport applications and where out of there @ 3:15. You can have your Photos taken at the PO also, but we had copies and so skipped that step. Please note that the PO does not accept Credit cards for passport applications and so you need to have your check book.

Hello!!! I'm thankful that you shared your experienced about your interview and oath taking. I'll be going the same process and in the same place. Hope everything will be smooth for me just like yours.

Thank you again.

Just received text that I've been placed in line for Oath ceremony. Imagine it will be October which would suit me better than September as I'm visiting Europe for the first time in 7 years (since moving here) for a wedding and to see my family in September.

Wish they would hurry up and approve my son's citizenship interview so we could complete this journey together. (He was interviewed the same day as me but told it was a major problem that because of religious beliefs and training he would not agree to serve in any context as part of the miiltary (even though he agreed to civilian service under government direction) ...bet they take the fulll 120 days to give a final determination. uugghh

Not sure whether to put off my oath ceremony so we can do it together which would be really nice since we've gone through this whole journey together from K1-K2, or whether to just do it separately whenever we are individually scheduled.

Nice that the end is in sight though!

Congratulations Curioustoknow. next step for you, change drive license, Social Security and passport. I finished everything in 8 days after i become a US Citizen, i received my passport in the 8day. but still didn't receive Naturalization letter, probably because passport was over night.
