I all. I have a dilemma. I can't find my appointment notice. This is so unlike me and my appt is tomorrow. What can I do?

Try to look at it again, your partner may helps.

Thanks for the wishes. I actually did not sent a single shred of supporting document with my Application, I only took the certified court disposition statements for my traffic tickets and had copies of other stuff like 5 yrs IRS docs, marriage certificate, green card, drivers license, expired and active passport, copies of passport. Thats it. Just for your information guys.

Hi LosSalvatore and tryhardh1b,

Thanks for responding to my questions. I know I was scrambling this morning and didn't reach out in time. However, I successfully got USCIS to fax a copy of my notice just in time for me to head to my interview. Here is my experience:

I arrived at 10:15 AM and was called for my interview within 20 minutes. The officer took me to her office, and I was sworn in. There was another lady sitting in the office who never introduced herself but rather sat there the entire time with a note pad. I knew when I saw her there was something different as I have never heard anyone mention of a second person in the room. She asked me for my passport, DL, and GC

The officer proceeded to give me the test first and asked the following questions:

1. Who is the governor of your state?

2. Who was the first president?

3. What obligation do you have as a US Citizen?

4. Name two national holidays.

5. What movement fought for civil rights?

6. ? Can't remember and if I do, I will update.

She then asked me questions such as my full name, social security, etc. She went thoroughly through the application and when she asked me about my spouse she asked if we live together and I said yes. She brought up a few public records which indicated some legal issues my husband had which I was transparent about in the beginning of the process and simply told the truth. She saw that he had used another address which I feel was the reason for the second person in the interview. I actually got emotional talking about some of the stuff pertaining to my husband's drug abuse issue and she was really sympathetic. After completing the application questions, she congratulated me said she is recommending me for approval and the next steps would be a review for clerical stuff (whatever that means) and within 2-3 months I would receive an oath letter and the oath ceremony is usually 2 weeks after receipt of the letter. Btw..she updated my address since I had made a Change of Address a few days ago and it wasn't showing in the system.

Please let me know what you guys think. I must say waiting for 2-3 months seems longer than what most people were told.
