Hello everyone had my interview February 14th at the Tampa USCIS  office which I was passed my US citizenship interview. I did change my last name. Anyone out there had any experience on the wait for your oath ceremony with a name change. Have a cruise booked in July and just want to make sure I have enough time between my oath ceremony and cruise to get my passport.

It varies by field office. I'm in Philly, had my interview Nov 22 - asked to go back to my maiden - had my oath today - so 4 months? 

Also, they take your green card from you so you'll need to get your passport asap to travel after oath ceremony.

Two options it seems

 

- you can reschedule your oath ceremony - but this is likely a bad option if it takes months to schedule

- you can get an expedited passport if you have travel within two weeks

Good luck! Subscribing here, also doing name changes. Our interviews are next month.
