Hi folks,
I had my interview appointment this morning at 7:45am, went there shaking because I did not disclose a speeding ticket (question16-citation), I do not have any paper to prove it, and 2 days ago I recalled that I have an ID in California with an address over there that I did not disclose, went through security, got my appointment ticket, waited for about 10 minutes, a nice IO, very professional called my name, walked me into his office, he reviewed some questions, not all, I forgot to check a question, he checked it with his pen.
NB: I have a speeding ticket, but I answered “NO” to question 16, he asked me, have you ever been arrested, cited… I said “NO” he passed to the next question.
After he finished he asked me to sign the application
Then he asked me 6 questions:
1-What is the supreme law of the land?
4-What is an amendment?
34-who vetoes bills?
44-what is the capital of your state?
52-what do we show loyalty to when we say the pledge of allegiance?
81-who did United States fight in world war-2?
Sentence to read : where is the white house?.
Sentence to write: the white house is in Washington D.C.
Than he put all the papers in my file, He gave me back my Green-Card and said go back to the waiting room, another officer will give you the paper with the oath date. Thanked him went to the waiting room, waited about 5 minutes, an IO called my name and gave me the oath letter, and it was it.
IN-7:45
OUT-8:15
good luck to everybody, do not stress like i did, it is pretty easy.

Congratulations december2010!! You must be very relieved. I'm still waiting for my IL.
 
I had my interview at Baltimore office earlier today. It was a standard interview:
Asked for passport, green card and driver’s license
Reviewed and updated N-400 (made about 12 notations for various changes, including Q17 -" Have you ever been charged..." where I had answer No, but it should have been Yes)

I had the oath ceremony later in the afternoon with 49 new citizens.

Called USCIS customer service this morning. The nice lady at Tier 1 escalated me to Tier 2 and I was told that everything was fine on my case and I have been on the interview queue since Jan 14 (4days after fingerprinting). I happen to be in Los Angeles CA where the interview schedules are very tight. So I guess patience is a must here...

Well finally I got an update.

Just got the text message this morning that my case was transfered to the local office.
 
Just received my YL. It asks to bring the DL the interview.
No mention of the Interview date and no changes on uscis web site :(

PS: I am the last one who mailed his N400 in December and I live in the DC area. Therefore, I am not expecting anything before Summer :(

The San Jose DO and San Francisco DO are generally taking 4 months on average for processing. By the time of oath ceremony my case processing time would be 10 days short of the 4 month average.

Also, since you have your interview on 3/21 in San Jose, once you are done with the interview, you can ask the IO if you can be accommodated for the oath on 3/24. There have been some people who have reported getting the oath letter in hand, in Oct and Nov last year at the San Jose DO. [posted in the San Jose N400 tracker ]
