N-400 December 2014 Filers

[JimmyHou 611]

Thanks Kash2011!

Me and my wife together with 3,938 more in Los Angeles, became US Citizens yesterday morning. There was another session in the afternoon which probably had a similar number of people. The ceremony went smoothly. We checked in a little before 8am. We got to our seats around 8:10. Judge arrived around 9am and conducted the oath. A couple more speeches, announcements and congratulations ensued and the ceremony ended with the singing of the National Anthem and God Bless the USA. We waited for another 10 minutes for our section to be called then lined up for the Naturalization Certificate. Something to note though, my wife's certificate came with the photo she submitted with the n-400 packet (no signature in front). Mine had the biometrics photo with a digital signature.

Thanks for all the help and volunteered information in this forum. I almost never had to ask questions myself since a lot of the people before me had already asked them and the answers were readily available. Good luck to those still in the middle of this process. I wish yours goes as well as mind did. Now on to the passport application!

cheers everyone!

Thanks for the oath recap.

This confirms that they sometimes use the biometrics photo and sometimes use the submitted photo for biometrics.

Just curious, did your wife do a name change? I've seen that most people who request a name change end up with the submitted photo because the signature printed on the biometrics photo is no longer valid.

She did request a name change so your theory could be valid. However, just snooping around while the certificates were being distributed, I noticed that most of the other ones that I saw were actual photos and not the digital ones like mine. You could still be right, maybe a lot of people did request name changes.

Edit:

Also, at the interview, she (nor I) was never asked to sign the photo as I've seen some people in this forum were asked to do. So her signature wasn't showing on any of the photos. Dont know if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the oath recap.
