N-400 December 2015 Filers

[KASH2011 382]

I am almost there.

In line for interview: 12/24/15

Interview letter: 01/05/16

Interview: 2/11/16

Today I got email saying

"We placed you in line for your oath ceremony and will send you a notice for Receipt Number XXXX, with the date, time, and location of your oath ceremony. You should receive your notice within 30 days of its mailing date. Please follow the instructions in the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address."

The interview went well. We went together through my application. He ask for my passports, green card and driving license. He did not want any more documents. First, he asked some questions about address, name of the spouse, date of birth and answer to the Y/N questions on the application. Ask me to sigh that the information is correct.

Exam part was fast. First read one sentence then write one sentence and the civics part. He said that he needs to record my first answer, so do not rush. My questions:

1. Name one war fought by the United States in the 1900s

2. Who is the Chief Justice of the United States now?

3. The House of Representatives has how many voting members?

4. In what month do we vote for President?

5. Who is the “Father of Our Country”

6. We elect US Senator for how many years?

I took me total 20-30 min inside.

Congrats!

If this shows up on your record (there's a good chance it will), then your citizenship process may be delayed.

Worse still, in some states, such an offense would result in a bench warrant for your arrest... that would definitely show up on your background check.

I suggest you take care of this before your interview.

I suggest you call the court first and find out what you have to do... in Texas, missing the payment date would necessitate a hearing in front of a judge and additional fines.

EXCELLENT!!! CONGRATS!!

OMG...I am having a friggin meltdown right now. I just realized that my interview is in less than 2 weeks. My palms are sweaty just thinking about it and I feel vomitous just thinking about this

What if I can't answer all of the civics questions? What if I freeze up and my tongue goes numb so I can't speak? What if the interviewer hates the sound of my voice? What if they hate what I am wearing that day? What if they don't like my big binder of USCIS paperwork that I am bringing?? BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!

Hi folks,

I have a naturalization interview on Monday in Cleveland, and I'd very much appreciate a quick check of the items I have ready for the interview. I'm filing under the five year rule. Some of these things might be superfluous but I like being prepared.

• Interview Notice
• N-400 copy with all attachments and copies
• Marriage certificate (original copy signed by pastor)
• Selective Service registration (copy and original)
• Biometrics notice, stamped by Cleveland ASC
• Proof of payment for traffic tickets and court dispositions where available
• Certified Ohio driver's license abstract
• IRS tax return and account transcripts, TY2010 through TY2014 (have not yet filed TY2015)
• All USCIS notices, petition through naturalization, including previous conditional green card
• Birth certificate
• All Passports (previous expired Canadian passport with K-1 visa and current Canadian passport)
• Ohio driver's license, green card (in my wallet)

I've studied the civics questions, of course, and my wife is testing me on them through the weekend.

Can you think of anything else I should take with me?

Edit: It's in a nice binder like the one I had for my embassy interview in Montreal. FWIW, they said I was the most organized visa applicant they'd seen in a while

Good luck Spoom!

I have mine in Cincinnati on Friday and don't have nearly as many documents as you are bringing! Still trying to chase some stuff down.

I am filing under the 3-year rule.

I will be curious to know your interview goes.

When you say birth certificate, do you mean yours?
