Ambassador bridge at Detroit. took around an hour,the officer dealing with us- it was his first K1/K2 i believe as he wasn't sure what to do- his colleague kept him right, at the end he actually handed us back our envelopes-i pointed out that he keeps these and he just laughed at his error. we had to pay $12 dollars?? |

Oath Ceremony : |
2020-08-20 |
Comments : |
oath ceremony was literally ten minutes. the longest part was single file of checking the forms then single file to check the forms again and hand over green cards. You then have a seat and wait till last person has been checked in. At which point the immigration supervisor comes in says couple of words makes us all stand and repeat after him the oath then congrats you in saying you are all American citizens. He then leaves to which the staff hand out your certificate and you leave. This is all done with social distancing. I arrived at 1.20pm and was out at 1.50pm, but as an American Citizen |

Embassy Review : |
interview was for 9.30 turned up at embassy at 8.30 waited in long line of people only to be told i had to go check in at front of which i was then ushered through as we were immigration visa's
waited in main hall with everyone else and waite for I numbrer to be called which was 20 mins later the lady behind window made me nervous as she had to go find my file and had problems entering my passport details and getting my fingerprints but she was really friendly. after 20 mins i was told to go sit down and await for my number to be recalled for interview
after 30 mins i was called to different window around the corner and the grilling started
Was asked who was my sponsor -my fiance
where when did we meet- years ago the again last year
when did i visit/ why not again- expense timing work commitments
what does he do for living- explained his company
asked how he got into that
asked about his previous wife
I think i was maybe grilled a bit more as he was training a new member
but after those questions he just typed something then smiled and said Congratulations your visas are approved we will send you your passports and paperwork in 5- 10 days
My child was with me and they never asked about them only that i had to take the oath for them

Timeline Comments: 11Hi, How did it go? Are they doing same day naturalization?
It was quick and easy. Nothing to worry about. Really nice officer who made jokes. Oath ceremony is another day. They're not doing same day. Not even local have to go back to Cleveland he said. Prob due to covid
Nice! Thanks for sharing!
Hi! I had my interview a couple of days after you and it went well too and got approved ðŸ™ðŸ» Have you heard anything about the ceremony?
I've just saw that they have posted out my letter with details of time and place. Nothing on my uscis to see as yet. But looks like they take a week to send out the letters.
Same thing here up until now..
just got notice on my uscis- oath ceremony is 08/20/2020 less than 2 weeks away. FRom interview to Oath 3 weeks 2 days. thats quick. Good luck
Happy to hear that! Me too! Thanks for sharing! Mine is actually the 19th!
Hey, how did your Oath ceremony go? was wondering how long it actually was, Congratulations also.
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
