Hi all, Im not a January filer, im a March filer but I have a quick question for those who had their oath ceromony already.

My online status states

"On May 8, 2013, we placed your application in the oath scheduling que. We will send a notice when the ceremony is scheduled. If you move prior to the scheduled ceremony, please use our Change of Address online tool to update your case with your new address or call our customer service center at 1-800-375-5283."

Question is, will my status be updated when they send the oath letter to me or will my status stays that way and even if they sent the oath letter?

Wanted to quickly wish Keigwyn luck tomorrow (although they won't need it!). dancin5hr.gif I believe they are our only interview for the week!

Thanks!

Arrived about 30 minutes early for the interview and went through security, got my interview letter stamped and was told to go to the seating area near window 7. My heart sank when I saw the number of folk waiting in that area, so I sat down and was immediately called to the window. This was just to hand my letter in and be told to listen for my name being called by a closed door.

So I started the waiting process, a lot of folk were coming out and sitting back down. I found this a little odd, but all of these centers work in different ways. After about 40 mins an officer came out with Oath letters for about 10 people, called out their names and handed them out!

Five minutes later I got called in. I was asked for my drivers licence, green card and passports. The officer was very friendly and we went through my n400. When it came to additional trips since the application he only wanted to know the days I spend out of the US which was 6. We never looked at the passports.

Then it was onto the test;

6 questions:

Who wrote the declaration of independence

Who is the commander in chief

Name a state bordering Mexico

Name 3 of the original colonies

What are the political parties of the US

and one I cant remember.

He then said I had passed and said you come from the U.P. right? I said yes (the U.P. is Upper Michigan near Lake Superior, and it is a long way from Detroit (8 hour drive))

He said I was scheduled for the Oath ceremony on May 24 in Marquette Post Office (some 60 miles from me), so they must do some things in advance! They only do about 2 Oath ceremonies in the U.P per year. So he went to another office, got the paperwork for the Oath filled it in and gave it to me! (3 min wait)

So, this happy camper, just walked out with a smile on his face, journey almost done!

Congrats, was wondering when your daughter's interview would be re-scheduled. I was wondering if I would be the only one saying the oath as its in the post office!

Congrats, was wondering when your daughter's interview would be re-scheduled. I was wondering if I would be the only one saying the oath as its in the post office!

The Oath Ceremony will be held in the Federal Courthouse, 2nd Floor of the Post Office Building. It's a big space. Get there about 15-30 minutes before, because you have to sign your naturalization certificate. I when through the process last summary.

My husband got his passport last friday and his passport card yesterday. Hopefully he'll get his naturalization certificate back next week. If you are worried you can call the passport office customer service they should be able to give you info as to when it was sent out and if there is any tracking info for it.

Hi FlipgaIRN

Good luck to everyone else still in the process.
