Oath Ceremony scheduled in first week of August.  

Hi..... did you get a text msg , email or it showed up on your account? I am a Chicago filer too I did my interview on March 5th. Waiting for my oath ceremony. This is now frustrating!  But I can’t complain since Chicago is moving at least.

GOOD NEWS! So couple of minutes after pouring my frustrations out about how this process doesn’t seem to end for me, I checked my cases status it said I my Notice of oath ceremony has been mailed. I didn’t get to to see the date at the moment so I called the 1-800.... number and the rep told me I have been scheduled for July 21st at 9am at the Chicago USCIS Office (Ida B Wells).  I had to Waive the name change i initially requested in order to get this done faster. I didn’t want to wait any longer for a judicial oath swearing for a name change. I can always do that after my first passport expires and I want to do a renewal, by then all this craziness and unending wait is over.

Profile pic - Rainbow Tower of the Hilton Hawaiian Village - Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii.

Why this for the profile pic?  Often in movies and on TV when they show Hawaii they show this beach/view. So, instead of doing Kauai or some other locale, we decided to do here, so that whenever some show shows Hawaii and this view, we will see where we were married.

Yay guys! I got my citizenship today! 🎉

 

Here are the details: We arrived at the St. Louis Office 20 minutes before the scheduled time. Went through security and up to the second floor where the waiting room is. Entering the room, there were some people sitting and a security guard in the back, who stands up when we enter. I went to talk to him and he asked for my appointment letter. Then he told me to draw a line on top of the City/state that I wrote and told me to write St. Louis, MO ( I didn't feel comfortable doing it, because changing a document like that feels wrong, and there was nothing in the letter stating that I had to write the exact city where I was taking the ceremony, only saying that I had to sign the day of the ceremony. I signed at home, and I live in Illinois, but whatever, the guard told me to do that, so I did). He then also told me and my husband to sit 6 ft apart because "social distancing" (even after I told him we live together... but that didn't make him change his instructions... whatever again... haha). At the time of the appointment, an USCIS Officer appeared behind the counter and started calling one person at a time. On my turn he asked for my ID and then I gave him my Green Card and MY Employment Authorization cards, and showed my Drivers License and my Military Dependent ID. Then he asked me where I lived, and proceeded to the questions in the appointment letter. He gave me a number and told me to wait. After this officer was done checking in everyone, then the security guard called us by number to form a "social distancing" line. We then were guided to another room and each directed to stand in front the table with their citizenship certificate on it. Another officer conducted the ceremony. She explained that we would do the Oath and we repeated each word after her, right hand risen. Then we were done and released. Very quick. There was a flag at the waiting room and the security guard allowed us to take a picture there. And that was it.

 

I can't believe I'm DONE with USCIS and all this Patience training. 

 

Good luck to everyone! And thanks for the company and the great information. This website really helped me and I made sure to complete my timeline and write my journey there to give back.

Congrats! But unfortunately no celebrations anytime soon for Newark filers like me. Not moving at all

Hang in there. Things are definitely moving, for a lot of folks and visa types.
