    WBH/Dream, Thanks for ur prompt responses! All my travel docs issued by INS are old and expired. Currently, the only active docs are Indian passport and GC. Do I still need to carry the old travel docs?

    Citizenship Interview Experience in San Francisco last week

    Cali, I have been to Mexico 3 times for vacation, but never to Canada. My guess is that he was in general trying to find out if I had been to Canada/Mexico. Since he saw Mexico in my trips list, he asked about Canada.... Al, anytime:)

    Traffic ticket a week before oath!

    u r over-worrying...traffic violations that are $500 or less and that do not involve drugs, alcohol etc do not require documentation. take it easy...i know of people who have had minor tickets but never had to disclose before or after interview.

    WhichWay2Go, -are you talking about filling the US passport app online and then printing, right? -I am confused. I can fill out the app before oath, but submit after the oath, right? -I heard that I can submit my passport app right at the oath ceremony itself. Which is faster: At oath or later...
