  1. Thank you! Still hard to believe after all this time! It didn't make sense to me either but I went with it. 40 extra minutes of driving though!
  2. Well I am officially a US citizen! The ceremony was hectic but great! I registered to vote, updated my info at social security, and yesterday I applied for my passport! The odd thing is at the passport appointment they wanted my marriage certificate. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why since my naturalization certificate and drivers license are in my married name but I went and got it at home just in case. https://richmond.com/news/local/naturalization-ceremony-us-citizens-constitution-day/article_af6a4d9e-4d9e-11ee-afe3-fbe8f7574569.html
  3. Check this out, I was wondering why they were having it at the Siegel Center! https://news.vcu.edu/article/2023/09/vcu-to-host-naturalization-ceremony-on-sept-18-for-600-new-us-citizens
  4. Yes, I received my notification on August 17. I wasn't expecting it to be that fast. My coworkers husband had his interview in March and his oath is scheduled for September 20th LOL
  5. I was approved also! My oath is scheduled for September 18th at the Siegal Center in Richmond!
  6. I am not sure. I have had conflicting information on that. I do know my coworkers husband had his interview in March and the officer actually asked him why she wasn't there. It's odd because she isn't even a citizen and hasn't applied yet. She was at the hotel. He still passed an all but I thought that was odd. I guess I can offer to go get him out of the parking lot if they ask haha
  7. I'm gonna do the same with Chad. Review the ones I get stuck on! We have a few hour drive. Is Travis going inside with you? Chad wants to wait in the car.
  8. I have everything sorted and ready to go! Hopefully I don't forget anything! I am so nervous! I keep mixing up a few of the questions, just hope & pray I don't freak out and blank on everything!! It will all be fine, I am sure!
  9. haha.. I came here too.. so nervous! I know the questions pretty good but I am afraid I will blank. I am bringing originals of everything and tax transcripts. Not sure what else to bring.
  10. My extension was written on the receipt notice for the payment
  11. yes, I saw that there also. I'll make sure I have those items for sure.
  12. If they ask just tell them why you don't have it. It should be fine! I don't know what I need to bring because I applied for 5 year rule since I had been here so long but maybe I should have did 3 year since I am still married. I was confused about that. I'll bring my husbands docs anyway, just in case they ask.
  13. I think I'll be fine if they don't reject anything. I was not happy with my picture but sent it anyway. There was a small shadow on one side of my neck. I should have asked the guy to redo it but I didn't at the time. I don't know why I didn't just ask him to retake it!! I don't think they will care if it is expired. I do have an expired one that I can bring but it is not the one I used for the 2 trips I made home over the past 10 years.
  14. haha.. I want it over that's for sure! I've been studying some but will have to get more serious! Been using the flash cards on citizen now app. I am freaking out because I sent my passport off for renewal to Canada! No clue if I will get it back in time for the interview!!
  15. Norfolk!! Does yours say 10am? I have a feeling they all say the same time LOL
  16. Same day I am scheduled, on my birthday no less! Is yours it in Charlotte again or Norfolk?
  17. I'll have to check that one out. I've been using citizen now. I like it. I refuse to do any multiple choice because the questions will not be in that format. Now I have to see if hubby can drive me to Norfolk, I hate driving places I am not used to!
  18. nice.. I wonder when mine will be scheduled! I am so nervous about the civic questions. I am not big into history or politics so I will have to start from scratch! Oh my!! I just logged into my uscis account and my biometrics is for 3/9!!
  19. Looks like we should be close in timeline! I am in Virginia also!
  20. Nice! I need some time to study but would like this over with LOL... I've not been looking at immigration stuff since my conditions were removed way back!! Looking at my timeline now it all seems like a dream! I don't even remember how to updated my signature!
  21. I filed online last night so technically today. I think my interview will be in Norfolk, VA. It said 16 month estimated. Are those usually accurate? I've been here 11 years I guess I can wait another few haha!
