Status Update + Q

I have my interview on 12/21 at 2 PM in Newark. Is it possible to do the oath the same day?
 
Interview was a breeze, Oath Dec 21st

Was there at 08:45 am and interview was to start at 09:25 am. The interviewers were running behind... was called in at 10:44 am. Interviewer was very pleasant and started off with checking my DL, GC, & Passport. Interview started with 6 questions:
1) Rights from First Amendments?
2) Rights of everyone living in US?
3) In charge of executive branch?
4) 2 Cabinet level positions?
5) US Senator?
6) Who can vote?
Read a sentence / questions and wrote down the answer. (Capital of US)

Thereafter, went through the N-400 Application. Congratulated me and a bit of chit chat about my present company, TARP funds and potential bonus people would get (I do wish for the bonus though… no bonus this year!). End of interview… Congrats and Thanks all around. My interview for a light discussion and the Interviewer was very polite and professional.

Wishing everyone the same for their interview, hoping it’s a breeze. Thanks for all the advice on the forum, this really helped. :D :D :D

Just for update my timeline:
My Interview scheduled time on1.20pm yesteday. I went there 12:30, Called almost at same time of the schedule, Completed in 10 minutes. Officer is very nice, He led me to his office and asked me to raise my right hand to swear to tell the truth. He checked my DL, green card, and passport then started to ask questions about N-400 of my info and some about those Yes/No questions, He then asked me to sign on the photos and the last page of my application. Also asked me to print my name on the form.
Then do the civics test.

1. What is freedom of religion?
2. When must all men register for the selective service?
3. What ocean is on the east coast of the United States?
4. …..
5. …..
6. ……
I forgot anther three. He asked the fast and I answer fast too.

Reading: What do we have to pay to the government?
Writing: We pay taxes

I had no written good at the “t”, I told him that I am nervous, but he very nice and said that: don’t need nervous, you do the good job.
Then he is saying that I passed the test and congratulated me for the success.

I was applying based on 3 year rule. My husband is USC at birth. I think that this kind of rule may need a lot to prove, I took all the information that I can bring. But he needs nothing.
I'm glad that the officer is nice and professional. Now I put the 100 questions book and CD into the "history Museum” of mine. I will remember these days of intense learning.
Hope to see the oath letter soon. Thanks all for the information that you guys provided. Thanks for this forum have given me a great help.
Wish everyone the best of luck.

So you wrote: We pay faxes?

I really wish we could just fax our money to the government instead of sending a real check. :p

Congrats!
