Hey guys,

I had my naturalization ceremony today at the Roseville’s Skating Center. My letter for the oath stated that I should be there at 9:00am. I arrived at 8:45am and was seated. It took another 1hr 15mins waiting for the ceremony to start. Overall, the ceremony was great. We had people from 55 countries. The total number of naturalized citizens were 99. Finally, I am officially a United State Citizen. It’s a long journey,  but it’s over! Wishing you all the best of luck with your process.

I had my naturalization ceremony on Wednesday. It was a really nice ceremony, great judge speaking and I liked that they registered you to vote and let you update your SS card there. Contrary to the o

It might be a good idea to check the veracity of your data/sources before spreading rumors from other forums.   1, MN doesn't have the largest number of refugees across the country.  Between

My husband had his interview yesterday, they did a dual I-751 and N-400 since his removal of conditions was still pending. I went with, and was called back with him immediately to get the I-751 portion out of the way. It was pretty quick, just a few basic questions about where we live, when we got married, what we do for fun, and if we had any additional evidence. Then I was walked back out to the waiting area while they finished the interview. My husband was nervous but the interviewer was really nice and kept reassuring him to try to make him more comfortable . Overall, it was a very pleasant and quick experience, I don’t think it lasted more than 20 minutes. They approved both so now we just wait for his oath ceremony.

Well today I had the Oath ceremony and GLAD every thing ended after years upon waiting and struggle.  There were 1003 people attended from 89 countries. Tim Walz the governor was there gave a speech for all the citizen. I went there little early around 8.45 (appointment was at 9.45) to make sure i have parking and the ceremony actually started around 10.15 (River center St Paul) . Little bit wait but its so Worth it. They will give you the application to register to vote and the application for the passport and to make an appointment with the passport office. I changed my name and they will give you the certificate of name change with the Naturalization certification. Im glad this whole process came to an end and I wish you guys all the best. I know its killing to WAIT, but at the end ,that time is so worth the WAIT. GOOD LUCK and THANK YOU for this Thread.
