Just received the email that interview was scheduled. Woot woot!

 

Of course no notice under the documents tab yet, will check again tomorrow. And the time estimate jumped from 2 months to 7 months until case decision. 

 

And I said yesterday to my husband that I do not expect anything to happen before 2025  

 

FO is Jacksonville FL, filed 6/22 under 5 year rule

Those estimates are totally made up. Here's example of somebody who got decision while their estimate showed 4 months until decision:

 

And on the other hand, there was somebody whose estimate said "Your case is taking longer" after only 9 days of filing...

I know. I am usually the first one to point that out in a different forum specifically for German filers. It's just funny because it happened to another user today as well. 

 

I have been here in the US for 15 years now and it was never really an issue or an absolute requirement for me, so it can take as long as it takes

 

My Interview is 12/3, I had the PDF of the letter in my account not long after the email.

And it’s a wrap! Same day oath .. The journey is now over!

Happy Wednesday 

I had my interview this morning in Denver 
The interview was scheduled at 10:15am and I was called around 10:20am

By 10:40 the officer asked me if I wanted same day oath or wait for the notice. 

Of course I chose same day oath and the next ceremony was at 11am and by 11:20 I was a US citizen.

It took me a while to remember all the questions I was asked :
1. When must all men register for the Selected Service?

2. Who is the Governor of your State?

3. What does the President's cabinet do?

4. What stops one branch of government from becoming too powerful?

5. In what month do we vote for President

6. What is the name of the Vice President of the United States now?

 

My reading was:
A lot of people want to become US citizen. (or something close to it)

 

And my writing was:
Alaska is the largest State. 
and the tablet didn't help it to look pretty 

 

I was surprised that Denver did same day oath but I guess because of the elections they did. Overall a very very quick interview 
Now I need to apply for that passport and then I am done 

WOOT WOOT 

Congrats to everyone who went through the interview so far and positive vibes to those who have not gotten a notice yet ... it will come 

congratulations, do the questions and the answers appear on the tablet ?

The reading appears on the tablet, and for the speaking section, the interviewer will say the words, which you need to write down on the tablet using a pen.

Hi all. Wanted to update you on my citizenship Interview yesterday (Tuesday 15OCT24). Appointment was for 11:45 am, I arrived around 11:10 and checked in without major incidences. However, I wasn’t called in until approximately 1:50 pm since there was a large crowd of people waiting to be interviewed.

 

Interviewing officer was very friendly. He asked me for my appointment letter, green card, TX state drivers license and my passports (I have two – one current and one expired). He verified my travel dates in the passports and returned both to me plus the green card and drivers license. He kept my appointment letter.

 

He proceeded to ask about my marriage, and kids. If there are any problems with my marriage etc. He asked what I do now for work now and was very impressed since it was in the same line of work as my graduate degree PS: he had asked what I studied for after seeing my original F1 visa that brought me to the US. He then proceeded to ask these questions below which I answered:

1.    Who is the Chief justice of the US

2.    Name one problem that led to the civil war

3.    Who did the US fight during WW2

4.    What is the ocean on the west coast of the US

5.    Name two US National Holidays

6.    Who is the current vice president of the US

Reading question on the ipad: I can’t recall but it was super easy

Writing question on the ipad: Lincoln was the President during the civil war

 

He then proceeded to ask a bunch of N400 YES/NO questions. He told me congratulations! Then printed out a form with my pass results. He said that I will be receive my oath invitation letter within less than a month!

He walked me outside and sent me downstairs to some room to get my citizenship certificate photo taken. The lady who took my photo also congratulated me. I was back in my car at 2:07 pm!

 

My case status online changed to the #we will mail you an oath invitation# status about one hour later!
