Thanks a bunch! I just called them and was told to call back a week after the passport application submission date (to let the application reach them through the mail). They will be able to look up my application by SSN and take a payment over the phone with a credit card.

Good point. I can't think of a reason, and so am not overly concerned about it. But given that it would last 10 years and cost $20 more, I thought it wouldn't hurt to get it. I won't spend $45 ($20+$25) for a new passport card application unless I had a good use of it though.

I applied for a US passport yesterday at my local post office. On the DS-11 form, I checked the boxes for both the passport book and card. However I put in a check of $75 only (I didn't realize that the card was $20 extra until last night). I went to the post office first thing this morning...

Our actual experience First thanks to everyone who posted a response to my question. We have had our interview and oath, and I would like to update you with the name change matter. The USCIS officer told my wife that taking a husband's name is not a name change, so the process is very...

Same day oath is available at that particular office, based on recent posts on several immigration forums. Whether it will be offer to us at our interview (assuming we pass) is to be seen.

Great! We plan to get the same day administrative oath then and do the name change on the passport using the marriage certificate and the maiden name citizenship certificate.

Yes, as Vorpal mentioned, the name change can only occur through a judicial oath. The same day oath is not judicial (based on other posts). I would probably have to do the long drive again for the judicial interview. My wife is currently mid way through a pregnancy, so I would rather avoid a...

A few background points first: 1. My wife and I got married about 9 years ago. 2. We will be going for our citizenship interview in a couple of weeks. 3. The interview location is a good four hours drive from where we stay. 4. They offer same day oath. My wife wants to change her last...

Congrats! I'm glad to hear that they are doing same day oaths. What time was your appointment at? I have an appointment there at 10am and hope that will be early enough for a same day oath.

I searched the forum and couldn't find a thread on this. What is the best way to prepare for the interview questions? English proficiency is not an issue. I have looked at the USCIS exam page: Exam page link Is it sufficient (for the interview) to know all the answers listed on the USCIS...

My D/O lists Feb 1, 2008 as their current N-400 processing date. Does that mean they are likely to process my application quite quickly (I filed last month).

The last few posts in this thread show that the submission to oath time frame is quite short now. However when I look at the processing dates at their district offices, the N-400 dates are much further back: narayana7: - 06/14/08 (submission) to 09/24/08 (oath). - D/O Oklahoma City shows...
