I doubt you're lost in the system. Btw, i brought everything I needed with me, and they didn't ask to even see 90% of it, so it sounds like these interviews could go either way. Oh, and don't put any energy into the online system, they don't use it or even update it. After I took the oath I...

Waitingin213, wow, 2 hrs is a long interview, I think mine was at max 1 hr, maybe even 45min. I now understand your n-652, they were waiting for more docs which they now have. I really do not think you have anything to worry about, now that I know this information. OLs will probably go out...

ahh.. the n652. Ok, so important. Both of us did pass the n-652, despite our past. Btw, I have no idea what my brother did, I can only imagine that they were misdemeanors. A 'decision cannot be made' is different. If anyone out there has experience with this please chime in. I don't...

My brother was exactly 3 weeks ahead of me, with the exception that he hasn't applied for his passport. His ceremony was end of January. 3 weeks ahead in terms of app, fp, interview, and OL. Btw, I had a dui in year 2000 and it DID affect my app in the year 2001. I had no idea what the...

My brother has arrest reports that were too old to be produced as well, he passed. I tend to see that OLs are sent near the end of the month, for a ceremony near the end of the following month. That's cool that they're having a ceremony on 04/09, it sounds like they're passing more people...

Booyaa! I got my passport on April 4th. I do not have my naturalization certificate back yet though. But this is good enough.

Wow, 10 days? That sounds unprecedented unless it was expedited in some manner.

Passport case status online I know any online status is probably worthless with the passport as it is with the n-400 application, but has anyone checked their status for the passport and is it accurate? I applied for passport on 2/26, when I enter my credentials online the system cannot find...

I only had an original with an attached translation, not certified/stamped in any way. I can't say if this would have been sufficient since my IO did not even ask to see it.

I got yellow papers asking to bring: birth certificate last 5 years tax returns (via tax transcripts) At the interview, the IO didn't even ask for them even though I had them ready. BUT I would have them ready.

I never got anything certified from cis. Let us know what it is once you find out, I'm curious too. Good luck to you.

Mine was at 1pm, 6001 people. When picking up the certificate i was the first person in my line (line 59), nice!

I went to the ceremony on 2/26, got my certificate. It was interesting to see that the photo they used on it was taken in 1999, when I first applied for N-400(failed) or my reentry permit. They did not use the photos I sent for this 2nd N-400. I immediately applied for a passport there, since...

Beacon29, a reentry permit is like a passport, though it's white or green and only good for 2 years. Issued to those who don't have passports from their country of birth, like me (vietnam). I still have mine, though expired (its my 3rd one) so I'll have to turn it in along with green card...

You may know this by now after reading many of the posts, but there are a couple who interviewed around 1/9 who managed to make the 1/29 oath. Amazing speed and quite abnormal, but from what i've seen, if you've: Interviewed in any given month, take December, if you passed your OL goes out...

Normal processing time is supposed to be 3 weeks. Don't be surprised if they use up every last day.

Passport Photos Don't know if you guys/girls have a CVS pahrmacy near you but they seem to have the cheapest passport photos: 6 for about $7 bucks. I used to pay 15 for 2 at kinkos.

Question about FP notice: I've heard that since one may receive the FP notice 3 weeks ahead of the actual FP date, that you could save time by bringing in your notice well ahead of time, get your FPs done, and save 3 weeks? If this is true then I wish I knew this...anyone hear of this...

I don't know but would GUESS that once it's submitted that there's not a whole lot of control on your side.

Thanks everyone. This forum brought me alot of my sanity back, the wondering and waiting will kill just about anyone. I'm thankful to have found others with a lot of insight and who are in similar positions.
