Oath Waiting Time In Des Moines, Iowa Field Office

 Share

7 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

My interview was held November 7, and I was approved. The Officer said to wait for the Oath letter between 1 to 1½ months. So, I know it's really only been two weeks, but posting this anyway to see if there's anyone else out there who has taken Oath recently in the Des Moines, Iowa Field Office so I have a gauge on how long I (my impatient self) have to wait. :)

Thank you.

Did my interview on 10/23 and still did not get my Oath appointment

Thanks for replying. The officer did tell me it takes between 4 to 6 weeks. I'd appreciate if you keep me posted, so I have a gauge as to how long it takes (and maybe be less anxious about it). :) Did you get an approval right after the interview? The Congratulations letter?
