Not at the oath ceremony. At the ceremony you will get your certificate of naturalisation - check that all the information on that is correct. The certificate is what you would take to the passport agency to apply for your passport. It will not be done for you at the at thr ceremony. This is something you do yourself after you have received your certificate of naturalisation. Also, don’t forget to take this certificate to the Social Security office to update your status from alien to citizen. I applied for my passport at the Seattle passport agency in January. I did the two week emergency travel as I had to travel quickly , it was ready in time. so I’m not sure how long it would take if you’re not doing the two week emergency travel. I had to call thr passport agency to get an appointment. I was not able to do it online I hope this helps ❤️.

😁 😁 I’m originally from the U.K. , that’s how we spell naturalisation. I’m not changing to American English 😂😂. I’m a dual citizen now 😍. I get best of both worlds.

I751 Filed -Jan 8th 2021 Biometrics -Nov 22nd 2021 Interview -None Approval Notice -Dec 10th 2022 N400 Filed -Feb 17th 2022 Biometrics -18th March 2022 Interview -Sept 22nd 2022 Approval Oath ceremony Notice - Dec 10th 2022 Oath ceremony -January 3rd 2023 Dear all I just wanted to take the time to thank each and everyone of you for all your help during this long journey. I finally became a US citizen on January 3rd, at 2 pm in Seattle Washington. The process was very smooth and quick check in to turn in your green card and oath notice invitation questionnaire page It took about five minutes to say that oath, and that was it !! I got my naturalisation certificate shortly after. I spent about 20 mins in totals from entry to exit of the building. Next step is to apply for a passport. I just want to courage anyone that’s waiting not to lose hope, yes it’s a slow process , but it works. The end is near, just keep waiting patiently. I also think filing N400 concurrently worked for me as I never had an I 751 interview. I hope this helps anyone who has doubts about it. Happy New Year to everybody , God love bless , and best of luck ❤️❤️

Thank you so much ☺️

Yayyy 🎉🎉. all the best with it. also I’m trying to call uscis to check my oath ceremony date. All I get is a robot. How do I get a human ? 😂😩

Thank you 🙏🏾 ❤️❤️

Thank you so much! ❤️ Yes that makes sense re the I751, and maybe I won’t even get told they have finished processing it, but at this point that’s ok !

I’m not in TX, but I too missed my biometrics in Sept last year for my I-751. My office is Seattle WA. I called them up , and was told I would get an email with a new appointment . I got it 2-3 weeks later , about October. , and my appointment was for November. So I had my new biometrics appointment roughly 2 months after my original missed appointment. I was notified of my new appointment about 3 weeks before hand. I hope that’s helps.

I got another email saying my N400 has been recommended for approval and another email saying N400been approved!! Still Absolutely NOTHING on I-751 filed in January 2021. The letter says to turn in my (expired) green card at the oath ceremony - as I will get my naturalisation certificate on that day. So I guess the gamble of filing the N400 concurrently with the I-751 paid off as N400 approval trumps the I-751 ?

My n400 interview was in sept this year and they said they could not make a decision at that time 😩 but I did pass my civics and English and it was noted on my form. Today I got a notice that my Oath ceremony has been booked and ceremony notice has sent in the mail. I heard absolutely nothing in between and nothing on the I-751 filed over a year ago. So guys , does this mean n400 has been approved and I don’t need to worry about I- 751 process? Please let me know if anyone you has any experience of this - Seattle office. thanks
