Early Walk-in for Fingerprinting at San Jose ASC:

Need to find out if San Jose - ASC accepts walk-ins for fingerprinting? Has anybody tried this out and any suggestions about the time of the day, etc.

My appointment is 3 weeks from now and I was contemplating of doing an early walk-in. Unfortunately, I can only do it on Friday or Saturday. Is a particular time or day better?

Kindly share your experiences and recommendations.

Good luck with the interview.

Well I am thinking it is taking forever. At least the tracker helps to see that things are moving. I am not seeing the light at the other end of tunnel. Called USCIS today and was told to wait for another four weeks. Grrrrr....
 
Had my interview this past Monday and got recommendation for approval :)
The IO said I will get the oath letter in two weeks.

Back from interview

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to report that I had my interview this morning and was recommended for approval. I had disclosed 3 minor traffic tickets (no DUI, < $500 fine) on my N-400, so I had answered 'yes' just to Part 10.D.16. The IO said that since those were crimes, I had to answer yes to 17 and 18 as well. The IO went on and on about how traffic violations are also crimes. Anyway, I didn't argue much, and my application was recommended for approval anyway, but I thought this was interesting with all the usual debate going on in this forum regarding traffic tickets. The IO said that 'everyone makes the same mistake'. Also, when I was given the civics test, I was given a list of 10 questions and was told to pick 6 and answer them in writing. That was unusual, I thought.

I had lots of documents prepared (as per the recommended list in the sticky) but was only asked for passports, GC, and DL.

Well, my journey is almost over. Now I can relax while I wait for the Oath letter.

Good luck to all!

Congrats ......

That was certainly an interesting interview you had.... I too checked only Part 10, D, 16. I didn't check 17 and 18.

I never knew regular traffic tickets are crimes..... I thought only if its DUI or something of similar nature.
Is it really a crime?

And thanks for sharing your interview experience.

Thanks, VYLE. Good luck to all with interviews this week.
 
Guys - Just wanted to let everyone know that I got my citizenship yesterday. I was actually very nervous but the whole interview process was very smooth and people at the office were very professional. I also want to thank everyone in this forum who take thier time to help others with questions\concerns.

My interview was schduled at 9 am in morning, was asked to present GC, driving license and existing passport. Then the officer went line by line of N400, asking the all the questions on it. Then she took my civic test and since I answered all six questions correctly, she did not proceed further. She has a list of 10 questions. Then she asked me to read one line and write one line. After that she told me she is putting me for 3pm oath ceremony in the afternoon.

I was not asked any other document but I would say take original copy of your birth certificate with you just in case. I saw the officer verifying N400 information with my birth certificate which she already had.

Weather was cold and rainy outside but I didnt care due to all the excitement. Oath ceremony took around 1 hour and we got the certificate. One thing I noted is I was not asked to sign on the pictures by the officer who took my interview and the certificate I received did not have the signature on my photograph obviously. I checked with other person at the oath ceremony and he too did not have his signature on his picture. We were just asked at the oath ceremony to sign our complete name after taking the certificate home.

Here is my timeline.
02/24 - Priority Date
03/25 - FP Done
04/02 - Interview Letter Recvd
05/11 - Interview Date
05/11 - Oath Date


Good luck to all who are waiting for thier citizenship and I wish you all the best. Thanks again to everyone, this forum is the best.
