I am amazed. While we were on vacation last week, I was scheduled for the oath next week. A full 4 weeks earlier than the interview officer had indicated.

Updating my timeline one last time.

Thanks to everyone here!

Without this wonderful community, the journey to U.S. citizenship would have been much more frightening (and costly)!

Good luck on your individual endeavors and lifes! We will all get there at some point and somehow.


Ciao.

Hey guys

I just came back from my interview and wanted to share my experience here.

I was on vacation and just got back yesterday and had interview today. So I was pretty tired. I got to the office half hour before my interview and sat in a waiting room after checking in.

I was finally called and I was feeling pretty nervous. The officer was a lady http was not very friendly. She didn't even smiled at me or anything so thaT made me even more anxious.

She was very quick asking questions but I answered everything just as quickly so it wasn't a big deal.

After asking me about my job, address, date of birth, marital status, if I had children, previous marriages, Etc... She asked to see my husband's original certificate of Naturalization which I had with me, she asked me for my passport and asked when was the last time I was out of the country, which was yesterday, so she made notes on my application.

Every answer I gave her she would write it or check it with my application.

Finally she asked me if I was ready for my test and asked me six questions that she had on a piece of paper and I was giving her my answers she would write the answers on the piece of paper.

Since I got the first six question right, she stopped and made me sign the sheet. She also gave me a question to read out loud and gave me a sentence to write.

Then she gave me another piece of paper to sign, and finally she made me sign my application and 2 photos that I had sent with my application.

Then she proceeded to give me another piece of paper that said congratulations you have passed the English NAND civics test and told me if I had any questions. She then said to wait outside for about 30 minutes that I was going to be called and given a paper with the oath information and what to bring.

I said thanks and bye and waited in the waiting room until another person called my name and gave me a piece of paper. It was the oath ceremony date!.

I was so happy at that point because it said my oath ceremony is on Friday!.

I cannot wait to be over with the oath ceremony and finally receive my Naturalization certificate.

Good luck to everyone with their interviews! Let me know if any questions

Wao, q'hubo! Gracias por el detallado cuento de tu experiencia!

Congratulations on scaling this important step. I'm sincerely happy for you, and grateful that you were kind enough to share a detailed account of your experience so soon after your interview.

I do have a question for you though: your profile indicates that your local office is is Miami. Is this the actual field office in Miami on NW 7th Street? I was not aware that you would be scheduled for an Oath Ceremony the very same day as your interview. Since my field office is Miami (the office on NW 7th Street), I was curious to learn if this was the procedure. Please, let me know when you can along with what date your Oath Ceremony has been scheduled to have an expectation of the average time between interview dates and Oath Ceremonies.

Gracias!

Hello Darth Vader Ku,

Muchas Gracias!. Yes, indeed it was the office on NW 7th Street.

I was not aware either that they would schedule it so quickly. I was expecting to wait and receive a letter saying that i was supposed to wait to receive an Oath Ceremony letter in the mail, but was pleasantly surprised that the letter that they gave me said to come back on Friday for an oath Ceremony. So i was not scheduled for oath on the same day as my interview, but just a few days letter.

I do know that that field office in Miami has Oath Ceremonies 4 to 5 times a month, so i am confident you will be scheduled soon after your interview.

Good luck to you!
