Hi all! 

Quick 2 questions:

1. My oath ceremony got scheduled for Saturday Jan 25th - is this normal to have a Saturday oath ceremony ?
2. What is the fastest way to obtain US passport after a ceremony ? I have Intl travel planned 3 weeks after. Can I apply during the ceremony or it has to be done separately online ?

You can get urgent passport, in person visit is required. Do not apply during ceremony as it will be regular processing time.

Naturalization certificate is issued at the Oath Ceremony directly, right ? Not mailed or anything ?

Oath on a Saturday? Interesting. May be because they closed on 9th because of Jimmy Carter's mourning, they are open on Saturday -- guessing. What time do you have your oath?

My interview is next week at San Antonio at 8:40am. Not sure if they will offer same-day oath. If not, may be my oath too could get scheduled on the same day (if I clear the interview)...

I posted here earlier - San Antonio FO does not offer same day oath. I asked them this question, they said no.
My oath is at 8AM on a Saturday. I googled a bit, seems that oath on a Saturday is completely normal.

Hey y'all!! 

Had my interview this morning and passed. Oath is later today at 2pm. Overall the interview was not bad. The officer did not smile at all during the process and kept the conversation strictly business. Appt was scheduled for 10:45am waited only a few mins before getting called in. Did the swear and he jumped right into it. We started with reading and writing then civic test. He went through the application process. When he got to the tax question, I told him we owed tax and had a payment plan. He asked for a copy of the payment plan (thankfully I had it with me). I also told him about our PCS move and he asked for a copy of my husband's orders. Because of that he told me I could do the Oath today. I was so happy to hear that because my flight is tomorrow lol. So I'm sitting in my car downtown killing time before going bk in for the Oath ceremony. I have two hours of waiting but it's pointless to go home and come bk.
