Interview scheduled: 04/30/2022
Interview Schedule: 06/14/2022 and Approved

My Interview appointment is at 11:30 AM.
I reached USCIS office at 10:30 AM and the security officials said they can allow me only 15 mins before my appointment time. So I waited outside till 11:15 AM.
Security officer checked my appointment letter,  ID and let me in. 
Once Security screening is done then I went to Check-in. The lady took my photo and both hand index finger biometrics and guided me to go to 2nd floor and wait.

I went to the second floor and waited for 2 mins and Officer showed up, asked my name, and said I will be interviewing you and follow me. 
Once we step into his room asked me to put all my stuff in the chair and took the Swear.
Asked me to sit in the chair and introduced himself and requested my appointment letter and Green Card. Checked my Green card and returned it back.

Officer said let's start with civics questions
1. What was one important thing that Abraham Lincoln did? Freed the slaves
2. During the Cold war, what was the main concern of the united states? Communism 
3. the House of Representatives has how many voting members? 435
4. Name one state that borders Mexico? Arizona
5. What is the capital of the united states? Washington, D.C.
6. there were 13 original States, Names three? Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina.

Read Sentence: What has Abraham Lincoln did?
Write Sentence: Thanksgiving is in November.

Quickly asked me if my cell phone number, and home address changed after the application filed.

He discussed my name change request.- If I want to keep the name change request or not
   Yes, I want to keep it.
Asked me to verify the Name change request and sign it.
Let's check your eligibility, and 
 1. Were you arrested anytime?
 2. Do you support the US constitution?
 3. How many marriages do you had?
 4. How many kids do you have?
 5. Do you have any outstanding taxes?

He asked me to check all the info in the tab and asked me to sign it.

He then printed a paper and handed it to me and said - I approved your case and you receive an update about your oath ceremony soon and it will be held in court due to your name change request.

Eagerly waiting for Oath ceremony date!!
 

Congrats on your success!

ok cool. I applied online also and I am also in Atlanta.  I filed based on 5 year permanent residency though, and in march so judging from yours I am hoping that I can hear from them by next month for an interview date.

Thank you very much. Yes I have to make sure I have everything ready to go. And I’ve been studying the civics since last year so hope I get the easy questions that are easy to remember.

Does anyone the waiting period for oath ceremony after interview got approved with name change request?

[fcl 42]

Had my interview June 14. Interview time was 7:55am, came in at 7:40, passed through security, checked in and was told to proceed to wait area atr around 7:51am. 

At 7:55am I was called by the IO.  He took my Oath, proceeded with the Civics part 6 questions, English test read and write. 

He then went ahead with my application, asked me  what's my name, dob, about my job, my wife, etc.  After that he congratulated me and told me he was recommending for approval.  30 mins later, status changed from recommendation for approval to In line for Oath on the USCIS case status.

In total interview time was 8 minutes max, it took me longer to get through security and check in.

Very easy interview.  BTW this was my first time interview with USCIS.

I got my interview appointment later yesterday! Yay!

 

Unfortunately, I'll be overseas during the scheduled time... It's a trip that I've planned for a long time, and it will be my first time seeing my family since the pandemic started (my 2 young kids will also see some of them for the first time). I called the USCIS to request to reschedule. I don't like having to go that route, especially since it's just a few days before I was supposed to be back. I hope they will allow me to reschedule and that it will go smoothly. 😕

 

Anybody had to reschedule? How did it go?

:S

 

They do well with rescheduling but I would be so anxious and try to reschedule my vacation.. Then again, its summer, and including your children.

I knooow, I don't like having to do it, but we are going to my brother's wedding, so it's not like I can change the date of our trip easily

 

That said, I called the USCIS Contact Center today, and I already got an email saying they will "honor" my request and will let me know when there is another date/time available. Wow, I'm impressed. And the representative on the phone was also very professional and friendly.
