Posting Raluca's interview experience.....

Hi everyone!! I had my interview yesterday in Tampa, FL. The wait was short , the Officer was nice and serious, joked with me a little bit, went through the application, asked me 6 test questions and informed me that I have passed my interview. It was easy and pretty straightforward, now just waiting for the Oath Ceremony letter in the mail. Good luck everyone!

Shakira08, congratulations!!! Sounds like it was a very nice experience. I had my interview 3 days ago, and today my online status changed to Oath Ceremony- so letter has been mailed out today!! There was someone that asked me earlier if I remembered the 6 questions, here is what the Officer asked me:

-When was the Constitution written?

-What is the age that men have to register for Selective Service?

-What is a State that borders Canada?

-What ocean is on the East coast?

-What does freedom of religion mean?

-How many Senators do we have ?

I hope this helps, I found Tampa Office to be very professional and nice people over there, now just waiting for my Oath Ceremony letter in the mail! Good luck everyone :)

Both my parents had their interview today. Interview was at 8.30am and we arrived around 8am.



The USCIS office has plenty of parking spaces.



No food or water allowed. Cell phone are to be muted or in vibrate mode.



Once you pass through security, you then arrive at the receptionist who provides a token number and you'll be called based on that number. Parents were given different token numbers.



They were called by two different USCIS officers for separate interviews.



The interview process took about 15-20 minutes and both had positive experience.



They were asked to verify their name, phone number and address. USCIS officers went over most of the questions on the N-400 application and specifically focussed on the ones we had answered YES.



Did you ever not file taxes? we answered YES and provided a written statement and the officers wanted to know why we did not file taxes etc.



My mom had a slightly different experience. The officer who interviewed asked her about her 800+ days outside the US and several trips she had taken, wanted to know why etc and at the end seemed convinced that Mom had strong ties to US.



Once their interview was over and they were approved, both requested expedited Oath due to impending travel.



They were asked to wait in the waiting area and after about 15 minutes were told as there was an Oath scheduled this coming Friday(9/26) they were being assigned to that. Shortly after that we got a printout of the Oath letters.



We were out by 10AM.

Oath experience:

Oath was at 7.30am and we were asked to come about 30 minutes early.

Once you go past the security(again no food/water allowed) and cell phones on vibrate, you are asked to sit in the waiting hall.

A USCIS officer will ask Oath applicants to form a line and checks their Oath letter and Permanent Resident card. Oath applicants are then taken to the main hall and seated and once they are seated, family and friends are then allowed.

There were about 100 new US citizens from about 42 countries!!!

The ceremony was about 45 minutes and at the end they distributed everyone's naturalization certificates.

Hillsborough Election staff were on-site for voter registration. Previously, USPS was on-site for taking passport application, no more. you are being asked to goto nearest post office to apply for US passport.

Overall, a positive experience and we were out by 9AM.

We will be travelling to Miami tomorrow to see if we can get same-day passport as international travel is immenient.

Hi All :) sooooo... I just came across this thread by khaugust who had his interview in the Tampa office: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/515820-interview-passed/

And... the questions he was asked are almost the exact same questions asked to Shakira08 reported in this thread.

Soooo.... can any other Tampa filers report back to us & let us know if they too were asked the same questions? It would be interesting to see if it's the same questions asked repeatedly? (though I know there is a possibility of any of the 100 questions).

It's just verrrrry interesting to see if there is connection between a field office & the questions they use. Maybe other field offices or IO's repeat the same questions. ...
