baikal is correct. This is how I got my GC.

My IO never asked for DL even thou I carried with me.

u need to apply N400 on 4/1/2010 or later and wait to get approved before applying for US passport. Complete process takes around anywhere from 4 - 7 months depends upon local DO. There is no need to apply for Indian PP if there is no travel plans.

I recvd my PP yday & card today and expect to receive cert next week. Normally all are recd in seperate mails. No need to worry.

There is no other option but to wait for oath letter or you can have INFOPASS appt and ask them abt the oath.

I was asked for BC during interview and fortunately I was carrying one!!

I even doubt they keep air travel records too!

I dont think it is necessary to carry passport card either all the time and due to wear and tear it might damage the RFID chip. To keep a copy is good idea. Passport card is good for land and sea travel but NOT for air. Applying together would have saved you the execution fee of $25 but...

Are you the one also reading the countries and their count or just pledge of allegiance? You did a good job on the stage. Also I had a chance to take the pic with my IO after the oath :)

There is a high chances that IO will question you abt residency outside US as it assumes that residential ties has not met. Did you had re-entry permit when you left US? Also it will be good idea to gather some strong evidence why you were outside US for a long time.

That make sense if you have immediate travel plans!

Congratulations milk!!! Any reasons to expedite your PP processing. DOS normally take around 2 weeks for regular processing

1) 1- 2 months, in some cases may be longer depends on name check 2) Until your oath is completed, you need notify INS about ur addrress change by filing AR-11 3) Once you receive ur IL and during your Interview you will be asked about any address change and they will notify abt your oath...

Update: I am done with my Oath today Fri 7/24/09 at Hialeah, Miami DO. Total 180 applicant showed up from 15 countries including one from UK and Spain. It took us more than 90 minutes for complete ceremony. Also applied for PP & card on same day. Good luck!!!

I went to Europe for 3 weeks after my FP is done but during my vacation period due to mail hold, I missed my Interview notice and I have to schedule a INFOPASS at local office for duplicate IL. So its a lesson for all, do not plan any trips after filing N400 application due to faster processing.

Congrats! USCIS promises within 90 days but one gets it usually within a months time. I got my oath letter within a week after my interview.

I have my oath tomorrow too but I am taking only my GC. I don't think I have any other documents related to immigration. Once I received my certificate tomorrow I am goin to apply my PP immediately at post office.

Congrats!!. Thanks for posting your oath experience. I have my oath on Fri 7/24.

I am curious whether n445 means approved or is there a step of checking involved by USCIS during oath? I know there are questions on back of N-445 and what happens when someone says "yes" to one of those question?

Contact USCIS and ask for the status. Its almost 2 months but USCIS ask for 90 days limit to send the oath letter.
