That is great to know!  Did you get any indication that you could have a same-day oath ceremony before the interview? 

 

I am a solid 4-hour drive to the only office we have in Oregon, and I dread the possibility of coming in for the N-400 interview/test, leaving, and having to do another 9 hour drive there and back for the oath ceremony.  Wondering how that particular part went, though I have four months before I can apply and plenty of time to wait after, I'm sure.  Thanks!

Before i went to my interview I am hoping and praying  that they will offer me same day oath because one person  a week ahead of me did not offered same day oath so that i am so surprise and thankful that before the IO  started  the  test she offered me to take an oath if everything will be ok.Good luck on your interview
