2013 January N-400 Tracker

My journey has come to an end, I am a US citizen as of today. The ceremony was moving: 1400+ people from 101 countries took the oath together!
Everything that day was simple; all that I needed there were the oath letter and the greencard.
(I ended up not applying for a passport there, after the swearing in, the line to drop your passport application was very long)

Good bye to the group and good luck on your last steps!

Well, it is two completely separate parts you want to complete Tuesday:

(1) getting sworn in. For that you need everything described in your oath letter (typically, the oath letter itself plus your green card). After being sworn in, you will receive your naturalization certificate.

(2) applying for a passport: On the day of your interview, you have received an envelope to apply for a passport, right? To apply on Tuesday, make sure you have this envelope plus all the items mentioned on the outside with you when you come in for the ceremony (except, of course, the certificate of naturalization, this you get during part 1).

See you there; I can't reply to my individual messages for some reason. Anyways, if you see a 6 foot 4 guy with shaven brown hair, chances are it's me.

Hey Brother - sorry couldn't find you, there were so many people :) Many congratulations!
