Let's hope there is no family emergency in the meantime in Italy. 

I would encourage your husband to set up an Infopass to get proof of his status stamped in his passport, before his green card expires. 

This will allow him to re-enter the country should he have to visit Italy before he becomes a citizen, incase his green card expires before then.

This will allow him to re-enter the country should he have to visit Italy before he becomes a citizen, incase his green card expires before then.

Yes.  thank you.  I did call and the lady said there is a stamp that he would be able to have in case of emergency that will get him re-entered in case he has to go in an emergency.

So I phoned the place where mine and @vkhutchings oath ceremony will be held tomorrow morning... (Brooklyn, NY)

 

Was told by the clerk that guests must remain in the cafeteria during the entire ceremony and are not allowed to enter the room to witness the ceremony itself.  There is one small television in the cafeteria where they can watch the proceedings, but even the sound is muted on it.  He also said it depends on whether the TV is even switched to that channel to begin with, as it might just be showing local news broadcasts instead as normal.

 

That completely sucks.  You'd think they would recognize this day is a huge deal to people and they want to celebrate it with family when it happens...especially since our spouses are the ones who travel with us through this journey. :( 

 

I'm really sad about this actually...after years of struggle, sweat, stress, tears, what-not to get to this day----and it's treated like any other day of the week in someone's life? 

I was hoping, after reading others experiences in different cities/states, that mine tomorrow would be memorable somehow.   Feeling like it's going to be rather anti-climatic and will be just a "show up, stand up, line up" kind of proceeding.  Really hope I'm wrong. :(:(

oh...that does suck.  I wonder why they wont let families share in that special proud moment to become a US Citizen.  Kind of sad.  My friend took the oath on the Battleship NJ on 4th of July....and everyone was welcome.  It was a beautiful ceremony,.  Best of luck tomorrow.

I am glad someone posted an update...I was getting worried for July filers.

Thanks for your well-wishes JT4/25 :) 

I just relayed the info to my husband, and suggested I just go to the ceremony on my own on the subway and then go back home afterwards, he said:

 

  "It's an important day.  And even if they don't treat it as one, your family will"  Brought tears to my eyes.

Good luck with your interview---I'm rooting for you!!!

 

Just check over your application so you're familiar with any statements you made, and make sure you go over the documents you are bringing (more than one) to make sure you have everything  you need.  Oh, and don't forget your passport and GC :P .

 

Don't wear any metal either or you might have a fun time at security lol

I had to go through the scanner twice (and then take off my shoes and go through it a 3rd time) all because of a small metal buckle on my dress sandals...

 

Make sure you come back tomorrow and let us all know how the interview went!  Best of luck!

Good luck, @LRP - Remember, they want you to pass this!! It's less work/admin for them if they can complete your interview the first time around. 

 

You'll be great!! :D

Are you serious??! I can't believe this. I was expecting guests could be in the oath-taking room, but maybe seated in a different part. This is ridiculous.

 

I guess I should just tell my husband to stay home with the baby then... :( Seems silly for them to get up super early and travel all the way to the place just to sit in the cafeteria and *maybe* watch the proceedings on a screen...
