I'm not sure what  "monthly filer" I fall in. But I wanted to let you guys know that my wife got her interview date. See my signature and timeline for details. Thanks. 

Hi @IndigoSkies,  Since your NOA happened in January, that would make you a January 2017 filer.  Welcome to our group!  I'll add your info to our timeline.  Is Memphis, TN your Field Office?  Please confirm.  Also need your Green Card date.  Thanks!

I am deaf - I can't hear what people are saying - I am not spending 2 hours not understanding anything.  So I need American Sign Language interpreters.  I had one at the interview - he was great!  One poster here also had an interpreter during his interview as well because the officer was deaf.  If you are going with your father on August 12. You will see the interpreters for sure.

Requesting for interpreters this time is a hassle - the officer on the phone did NOT know how to request and had to put me on hold while she inquired others how to do it. Then, she said that it has to be 30 days in advance.  Last time, it was no problem when I requested for an interpreter for the interview with 17 days in advance.  I explained, they mailed the letter 5 business days before the original Oath Ceremony on the 24th, then 9 days before the new Oath ceremony on August 12th. How can I make a request 30 days in advance and they KNEW that I would need interpreters.  I mentioned during my interview, I mentioned again when I went for my InfoPass appointment on July 14th.  This is very frustrating!  But at least, I got the confirmation number.  Plus on the oath ceremony letter, it says - Make a request at least 10 days in advance. How would I do that if I kept getting the letters right before the ceremony?  On my application, it was marked very clear that I am deaf.

 

Just hope that there is someone there otherwise, I will end up standing, bored out of my mind.  It's a very important milestone and I would like to be part of it, not left out of it. Very frustrating.

@ac8238 congratulations on receiving your oath notification!! For parking, probably what you need to know is that it costs $20! Once you get close to the parking lot, the signs are pretty clear and there will be a sign saying "Citizenship Parking". I ended up parking in the West Hall Garage that you enter from Pico.  As you may know if you have been to the Convention Center/L.A. Live before, there are a few street corner lots in the area that are cheaper but for something as important as this I didn't want to be worried about getting my car into a small spot on a vacant lot and having to walk a few blocks to get to the convention center and then try to find where the citizenship ceremony was etc. so I just paid the $20. As did my husband as he was driving separately from me! Oh, another tip, the parking garage is huge and the afternoon is long and tiring so I highly recommend taking a photo of your section (color, letter and number) and don't assume you'll remember it after the ceremony, I barely remembered mine!

 

My notification said to get there at 1 pm but I do believe that they give people different times on the notification form simply to stagger the arrival of people so they're not all trying to park at once. I actually got there more like 12:15 and no one said to me "you're too early" or anything, it was not an issue. So I think within reason you can get there earlier than your notification. Also the earlier you get there, the earlier you get out--after the ceremony they allow groups to leave, row by row, based on "first in first out". So being a little early is going to help you. I was one of the earliest ones and I was very close to the front when the ceremony was held. If you are U.S. military or a veteran, you can go in the very front row and you will be presented to the crowd for a special recognition. I'm not sure how those people got identified but you could probably tell a USCIS officer. Some were in uniform, some not.

 

As you exit the parking garage there will be clear signs saying Citizenship pointing you in the direction you need to go to get into the line. I truly wouldn't be able to show you on a map where exactly I was that day, I just followed the signs and then eventually joined a line of other people. I think I was among some of the earliest to get there as when I got there, there was still a single line consisting of both applicants and guests all together. Shortly after I joined the line, a UCSIC guy told us all to "Stop!" and separate into two lines -- left line applicants, right line guests. Applicants and guests go through security screening separately and then are sent into separate areas of the big hall where the ceremony takes place.

 

What else... The security consists of regular metal detectors, not the machines you see at the airport. They DON'T need you take off shoes or belts. Obviously leave any weapons at home! Also I believe someone else on VisaJourney had their water in a glass mason jar and that got taken, so no glass jars or bottles. In general I would suggest bringing as little as possible. The less you bring, the less they might need to inspect. The lines look long but they move fast.

 

Oh, there was one inconsistency on what was otherwise a pretty well-tuned day. After we went through the metal detectors, we were told to line up at three doors. A USCIS officer said "I'm about to send you through these three doors. Once you are through, you'll see a long line of tables with officers at them. You can go to ANY table to check in, just pick the table with the shortest line. You may want to go all the way to the farthest end of the table to find the shortest line. After your ceremony, go back to the officer at that SAME table where you checked in to collect your citizenship certificate."

 

Well, while the first part was good advice--the final sentence of that information was wrong. It was true that when you were first checking in you could go to ANY officer at any table to check in. However, as part of that initial check-in, the officer will write on your oath notification form the TABLE NUMBER to which you should go AFTER the ceremony to collect your certificate of naturalization. It is NOT true that you should go back to the same officer who checked you in. After the ceremony you MUST go to the table number that has been handwritten on the form by the officer who checked you in. That's where you'll get your personalized certificate. A couple of people sitting around me were confused by that because of what the UCSIC officer had said to us after security clearance and before checking in at the long row of tables.

 

There are people selling flags, teddy bears, citizenship certificate folders, etc. etc. before and after the ceremony. Just so you know, applicants will get a free flag from USCIS as they walk into the ceremony. And once you're checked in, the USCIS staff also gives you a pretty nice certificate folder that you can keep and store your certificate in. It's not leatherbound or anything but it's good enough in my opinion.

 

OK I think that's the main information I have. Have a great day!

Just wanted you to know that at the LA ceremony there was definitely an ASL interpreter and it seemed that they had maybe even seated the deaf citizenship applicants in the front row close to her because she was making eye contact with individuals in the front row. It's very frustrating that you can't assume that there will be someone there for sure. Is there a way you can escalate this? This is a human/civil right and seems like an ADA no-brainer.

Yes - I agree - two of my friends in DC area did not have interpreters at their oath ceremony even though they have requested for one.  They said it was a LONG ceremony and they could not do anything but look at others and try to imagine what they are saying.  

 

Yes - Deaf people have to sit up front because the interpreters need to hear the speaker clearly in order to translate.  And it's hard to see signs from afar so it has to be much closer unless it's being shown on a huge display.  My husband who has MS can't sit on a bench (I know we will be at high school and family members will have to sit on gym benches so I also have to request a regular chair for him to sit down or at the end of the ceremony, he will not be able to walk out and I would have to pull him and support him as we walk out and it is not easy for me because I am only 4'11 and he's 6'2. 

 

Will let you all know how it went on August 12th.  On that day, I plan to submit one job application that I have been eyeing on but it requires you to be an American Citizen.  And August 12th is the close date.

Feb 7, 2013: Interview date at Albany, NY field office. Greencard approved at interview! 62 days after initial receipt of application at Chicago.

Feb/Mar sometime: Received greencard in the mail. I can't remember the exact date, I have blocked it out as it was so traumatizing. It was just my luck that the USPS had some kind of substitute postal worker on duty the day my greencard arrived. For some reason that's never been explained to me, he didn't deliver my greencard and instead it got placed back into the postal system. We pushed the postmaster to find it and it was eventually found and hand-delivered by the postmaster to our house about two weeks later. The longest two weeks of my life!
