US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 JUNE 2014 Filers

Had my interview today in Cincinnati. It was rather quick. I wasn't wearing a watch, but I think I got to the USCIS office around 12:40pm for my 1:00pm interview. This was a brand new office that they have been working on for quite some time. The last two times I have been to the Cincinnati office (fingerprints and Infopass) it was a different room in the Federal Build

 

He indicated that I would have my oath ceremony in Dayton, much closer to where I live, and that they hold one ceremony a month. He didn't say when my oath would be, but that the next ceremony in Dayton is on October 23rd. So here is hoping I can be scheduled for that ceremony. If not, the next one may be while I am out of the country, so it would need to be rescheduled which would put me in to December. December would be easier for travel as I wouldn't need to make a trip to Detroit (four hours away) to apply in person for a passport, but I really don't want to wait over two months to go to the oath ceremony. The interview officer did recommend looking in to getting the passport in Detroit if the oath is scheduled in October.

 

All in all, the interview was painless and I was back to my car in the garage across the street by 1:19pm. A little wet though from the rain that had started while I was in my interview.

 

 

Congrats! :)

Congrats Justar :)
I took my interview in Lawrence, MA on Aug 18th. On Sept 23rd online status changed to "Oath Ceremony" and got an sms "On September 23, 2014, we placed your application in the oath scheduling que. We will send a notice when the ceremony is scheduled". Stll waiting for the letter.
 
I came to know that there is an Oath date on Oct 9th in Worcester. Hoping to get a letter for that date.
 
By any chance did you ask the IO about your Oath date?






Hello raja2USA! Thank you and congrats on you approval too! She said about the ceremony on Oct9, but she said probably it would be full already and I will be in the one in November. If your interview was in Aug. chances are you will be in this one next week. Hope you are, so you will be done shortly. I am waiting for the letter too. Keep us posted!

Hi everyone, my interview was today and I passed! The whole process too around 15 minutes. The IO was a very nice lady, She went through all the yes or no questions in the form and then she asked me the civic questions:

1) what is freedom of religion?
2) name one state that borders Canada
3) what ocean is on the East Coast of the United States?
4) when was the Constitution written?
5) when must all men register for selective service?
6) how many U.S senators are there?

After I answered the questions she asked me to read : "what do we pay to the government? And to write down : we pay taxes! Then she congratulated me and said I was approved and I will be receiving the date and place of my oath ceremony in the mail. It was a nice experience and I'm glad it is over.

Thank you Justar and Second stage for answering my question.


You're welcome, besthopes! :)

US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 JUNE 2014 Filers

You're welcome!
I hope u get scheduled for that ceremony in Mechanics Hall in Worcester, that is the earliest ceremony close to you interview date.
Usually Lawrence field office oath ceremonies are held in one of 3 places: 1- Lowell U.S DISTRICT COURT 2-Lowell MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM 3- WORCESTER MECHANICS HALL.
Usually the oath in Worcester is attended by at least 700 new us citizens so there is a good chance you may be one of'em.

Good luck.





Thanks, FaZz! Very helpful! I hope so and yes, if at least 700 attend this ceremony, chance are good for me. Thank you for taking the time and share the information, really appreciated. Finger crossed for you to get yor date ASAP !

:)

Can anyone answer my question:
 
Question to those who received scheduled interview letters:
 
From where is the Interview letter sent:
 
NBC in Missouri or local field office ?






Hi besthopes, my interview letter was sent from NBC in Missouri. Sorry I didn't see your question before! :)

Hey justar...
Something i wanted to share with you since your interview will be in lawrence.I found online that there is one oath ceremony in worcester, Ma on October 9th 2014 from 11 am to 3 pm .... Since your coming interview is on October 1st you could finish your citizenship journey very soon after your interview...
Just my 2cents ;)


Her, FaZz, thank you for your input. It would be awesome if I could be at this oath ceremony, I would be done very soon as you said. I really appreciate you shared this information, I will try to check with them when I have my interview. Once again, thank you for sharing this. :)

Good luck with your interview you still have plenty of time to study the 100 questions. ;[/quote] 

Thank you, FaZz, yes, things started moving for June filers. Boston is bigger and busier, soon you will have your date. Yep, plenty of time to study. Let's do this! ;)

Hi, justar! thank you.
I was suprised to check my zip code and find out that my field office is in Lawrence. Because  all my immigration visits were in Boston so far,  I hope they work together and I will go to Boston for this interview again. But I am in line since 7/9 and didn't get any updates yet . 


Hey bstngrl, no problem! We are to help and support one another. Really? Oh, so they really may work together. Hope you get the interview in Boston as you want. Fingers crossed for you and Reds and everyone waiting get the interview date soon.

justarFemaleBrazil2014-08-26 18:24:00
US Citizenship General DiscussionN-400 JUNE 2014 Filers

Yes Revere much closer to boston must likely will have it in boston JFK building , Lawrence moving much faster, I filed my application in mid May and got my finger print in mid June. Hope to get my interview in next week . Congratulation


Yeah, but just because Lawrence office is smaller than Boston, therefore, less people attend over there. I mean, every single time I've been there the place was pretty much empty. Hopefully Boston will start move soon and you get your date. Fingers crossed for you! And thank you for congratulating me, I appreciate!

My field office is Lawrence, but I 've got my fingerprints taken in Boston .  


Hello, bstngrl, maybe the offices work together? I have always been sent to Lawrence office so far in all of my immigration processes. Let's see when I receive the letter with interview date. I will keep you guys posted.

hey, usually it takes 5 business days for receiving the FP notice in the mail once you are notified by email and I see you should have received it today but give it another day or two since we've had a holiday in between.
 
My suggestion is to wait until Friday and then call.



Yeah, we've had the holiday. I will do as you suggested and wait until Friday. Thank you so much again, your help is really appreciated.

Hi Second stage, thank you for the input. I did sign up for updates by text and email. The last one I got was on the 07/01 stating the finger prints letter has been mailed, but so far I haven't gotten nothing in the mail. Guess I have to call them about it.
