    Oath Ceremony, modified oath

    If you have a modified oath and it has been accepted then you just leave out the section that you requested to not include while everybody is giving the oath. It is quite simple and will also be documented in the interview records. JU58

    Experience with modified oath

    Portland Timeline

    I had my PD on 7/9, FP on 8/4 and my interview/oath on 11/15. The nice thing about Portland Oregon is that the oath is the same day when your interview is before noon. Good luck! JU58

    Trip - reschedule The trip is important and complicated since it involves meetings and negotiations with other companies. Rescheduling the trip is close to impossible. I was reading in the forum last night and read about some experiences about reschedule that were not that bad - had those...

    Experience with modified oath

    I am planning - haven't filed my N400 yet - to request a modified oath because I am not willing to "bear arms" - religious reasons. I could hardly find any experience with this process - has anybody successfully gone through this process and has it been difficult? I understand I need to...
