Hi folks.My interview is on February second.I didn't file my 2015 tax yet.I even didn't receive my w2 yet.Do I need to take 2015 tax returns or previous years tax returns only?Thanks

Since your interview is that early in the year I don't think you must file your taxes before interview. I think in the very worst case you'll get RFE at the interview and they will ask you to send tax papers for 2015 as soon as you can and will put desicion on hold. I've heard such things happened to applicants for spouse's and fiance(e)'s visa but not sure about citizenship. During my interview they didn't even look at tax transcripts and just asked me if I had been filing taxes before due date every year since I arrived US.

Hi everyone,

2 things I was looking forward to this year are happening (or potentially happening) on the same day

My wife is pregnant and her due date was late Feb, however she went into labor yesterday but hasn't delivered yet. No serious complications but its our first and the labor process tends to be longer. My naturalization ceremony is also today at 12 noon. I can't say for sure i will make it as I would rather be at my first born's birth than the naturalization ceremony

The letter I was sent says we can send the notice back with a written explanation and we can be rescheduled. However, it appears this was targeted at people who know in advance they can not make it.

What would you suggest would be the best approach to notifying USCIS? Call and then send a letter today?

If she delivers say by 9 am i can maybe go for the ceremony but if not I will probably skip it unless it's a huge hassle to reschedule

Thanks for your advice

Dobolo,

First Congratulations for the baby and I wish your wife a very smooth delivery:) God bless your new children to you.

I know that you are in Boston Fenuil Hall and this is at 12:00pm Usually Oath ceremony will not delay over 12:15pm guaranteed. As soon as you make the Oath all of you. You could take the cert and leave immediately. You could be in and out in 30 minutes. I don't believe now you have much time in advance to postpone.

It would take you 2-3 months to get it rescheduled. I would advise you just talk to the officers as soon as you arrive that you will not attend the ceremony till the end.

As soon as you take the oath at no more than 12:15pm just ask for your cert and leave immediately

That is my humble advice to you

In my own opinion to this question. The applicants ahead of you determines the time u will be schedule for oath. If you are from a small jurisdiction where application are treated quickly. I will say a week. Like my own case,interview was done January 5th, got an update for an oath scheduled January 12th and I called uscis tier 2 officer for my oath and was informed that it will be on the 26th January
