Which documents u had? Because on my interview letter doesn’t say anything about taxes etc and my I 751 still pending...

I took my 2018 taxes and bank account,utility statements since januray 2019 when we first filed for Naturalization. All he asked from me were the 2018 tax returns and utility statements.

 

Good luck !

Thanks for the response .. 

I know its a silly question .. But whatdo people wear on the interview ? Do you recommend to dress formally as when you go to a job interview ?

Slacks/dress shirt should suffice !

Hello everyone.  Update on my case. 

I applied for n400 after 3 years of marriage.  My i751 was already approved. 

Applied on July 22, 2018. I got initial interview scheduled for Feb 7, 2019. However due to travel plans I had to reschedule. For several months and calls there was no information from USCIS, besides the regular answer to just WAIT. Finally,  by July 8th, 2019 I was scheduled for second interview on Aug, 12th 2019. Interview was super easy, was asked quiz questions, and regular questions from the application.  The IO didn't ask for any additional evidence. I received an approval email day later on the Aug 13th that my case was approved and I was scheduled for the Oath. My Oath was scheduled for the Aug 27th, 2019. I live in the city. 

 

I guess my journey finally is over. Hope this information helps anyone. Thx

Had my interview today , hope I get approval notice soon

How long usually take Oath Ceremony?

I am scheduled to appear for Ceremony at 9 am. What time expect end of Ceremony?

 

I live in suburbs. Usually it take 50 minutes to drive to Chicago. But in the morning it may take 1 hour and sometimes 2 hour. It will be problem if I late for 20-30 minutes or not?

He ask my about 15-20 min. After that He told me that I passed and gave me a letter.

I was waiting 1 hour at waiting room because person who before me had very long interview. Some people in waiting room wait only 5-15 min. So it's no reason to arrive earlier your scheduled time.

Hi I had interview on 22nd AUG.Desicion can not be made.No updates yet.I have 14 trips out 897 days total.No trips longer then 3,5 months.The IO asked me if I had trips   travel  after application(43 days out,one trip I had 1apr-14 may),she took the calculator and added  897+45 .She was not clear how the days are count.She needs to ask her supervisor.I was surprised how IO was not very familiar whit the days count.Just reading the posts looks like its gona be a very long journey for me.
