Good luck to all those who have interview in June. I am sad that though my priority date is March 7th...my interview is not until June 25th. Anyway...thats USCIS

Daruma07 good luck for your interview on Monday. I will be eagerly waiting to see your experience, as you are in same KC office as mine. If you live on Kansas side, there is an oath on June 29th..I hope you get scheduled for that. Do ask the IO if you can get scheduled for that oath cermony.

Caform, we are on the Missouri side, but we will fill you in on her interview Mknday. From what we have heard, the oath ceremony averages about 6 weeks post interview here in Mo.

congrats dash-tx... :thumbs:

thanks for the info.. :)

Guys,

sorry for the delay to post my review. Too much celebrating!

I applied for US Citizenship based on 3yrs marriage.

I arrived at Dallas office at 7:30am, was called in about 8:15am. Interview lasted about 20min or so.

Officer wasn't very friendly at first (not even good morning) but after a few minutes she started to loosen up.

Since she noticed I could speak English well, she jumped straight into the civic and writing portion of the interview.

Some of the questions were:

Who servers if the president is unable to serve?

Explain one of the 4 amendments about voting?

Why does the flag has 13 stripes?

Name one right of all Americans that is on the first amendment?

(can't remember the other 2) She stopped at question 6, since I got all correct.

Reading question was "Which state has the most people?" Written answer: California has the most people.

I joked about my bad hand writing, she smiled and said most people had it worse than mine.

She then went on to look at my file. It seemed like she hasn't seem my file before (it was huge! every single piece of paper I ever sent to them)

The file was divided from AOS, ROC and Citizenship.

She asked me address, DOB, etc and then the YES and NO questions.

Asked if I worked and showed an interest in my job, kept asking questions about it.

She was curious why I had traveled outside US 7 times over the past 3 years, I explained I have to go overseas for work.

She didn't ask for anything I had brought, besides GC, DL and passport. Not even my latest tax return. Didn't ask for original of anything.

Then she said it all looked good and I was approved. She left to get a piece of paper and came back with a form for me to come back same day at 1pm for oath ceremony.

The whole interview was in a very friendly mood and I wasn't nervous at all. She talked how behind she starts her day and I asked how many more cases she had that day, she said 13!

I came back for ceremony at 1pm yesterday, and there were 70 others from 27 countries. I was expecting more from the ceremony. It seemed like they are doing so many that it's not very personal anymore, the officer was reading off a page all she had to say and was mechanical. But it was emotional to sing the national anthem knowing that I was about to become american.

It lasted about 1 hour and I got my certificate.

I'm finally done with USCIS!

Thanks everybody for you support here on VJ.

Speak to a Senator if you get no luck in the next two weeks, I wish it would all hurry up and be over for you

We are in the same boat

I was told to wait 2 more weeks and then call the 1800 stuff

I pray the rest of us MARCH filers get interview dates!

*sigh* -_- still nothing.. i need to go back home around july/august.. :(

i noticed that most n400 applications here in chicago that are from k1 visa are slower than other visas, unless of course you filed passed the 90 days like a year or so..

a friend of mine's application took 10 months from her priority date to oath ceremony, another one took 7 months.. :wacko:

called the USCIS and like everybody else's experience they just basically read whatever it is that i see on the uscis tracking tool..

if my IL will not be here today, i will be contacting senator durbin tomorrow.. and if 2 weeks still no IL, i will be making an infopass appt.. -_-

"i don't know much about love but i know that i love him.."
