Mark us red!  we did it...well hubby did it.  lol.  Ceremony was beautiful.  even the man performing the ceremony got choked up when he was telling everyone how proud he was that they wanted to become Americans...and probably loved this country more than alot of people born here.  We arrived in Mt. Laurel at noon for a 12:30 appointment.  Didnt get called in til 1pm.  My husband was done by 1:20pm.  They asked him 6 questions.  Had him read and write the same sentence and then went over the questions in the application.  Ceremony was at 3pm so we just waited.  Was a beautiful day.

Hello all! Just found this thread. Hubby applied in early June has been waiting for an interview since September 6th. We are waiting (impatiently) for an interview date for Newark. We have a trip scheduled for the first week of April. So we are hoping we can get his passport taken care of before the trip. Can someone please add me as well? Thanks!!

@blk....when you went for your interview...what kind of paperwork did you bring with you?  Everything I sent was originals except for birth and marriage certificates.

Hi JT4/25 I took a complete copy of everything I had sent plus all of the originals, also my tax return for 2016 & all of my expired passports. 

In the end he only looked at my passports & took back my expired G/C & gave me back my 10 year one which I handed in at the start of my oath ceremony.

Had no idea either! We were totally looking forward to taking the day off from work and then getting his passport done the same day. Not sure how many places will be available on Saturday afternoon to get his passport done. But we have a date and that is what's important.
