How was the early FP experience? Any issue with it as in, what reason did you give for going early? I want to as well since I plan to be out the day they've scheduled my FP. Wondering what day/time to go and to best approach the early visit.
 
If you don't live far from the Service Center , I think it's worth the try of doing an early walk-in, the service center is 10minute drive from my house ( Brooklyn, NY) I just showed up before they opened 7:45 am the guard let everybody who had an appointment that day go first, by 8:20am I was all done , nobody asked why I was there on a different date.... Hope it helps

We went through the interview today. Though our letter mentioned 'examiner # 4 & #5' - we had the same officer. He was very straight, asking both positive, negative & trick questions and very to the point. Contrary to the impression that I got that they are normally courtous or they smile etc. So guys be prepared. No issues though, as I understand they are doing their job and we didn't have anything to hide.

Towards the end, he put a red stamp on the application (BTW very thick file) - which I read 'Denial' BUT he told me congratualtions and I should expect the oath letter in a months time. Should I be worried ??

*My wife couldn't see the stamp but same congratulations statement and that she should expect the oath letter in a months time.

Did the officer give you the approval letter for you and your wife?
 
Recd. a standard page of instruction with handwritten A# and checked congratulations option. Is this the letter you are talking about? Does it mean its approved?

If you are given N-652 and it says "congratulations! Your application has been recommended for approval. At this time it appears that you have established your eligibility for naturalization. If final approval is granted, you will be notified when and where to report for the Oath Ceremony." checked. Then you are good to go. No need to worry....

Went to the local service center and got done with the fingerprinting this morning. Early walk-in experience was quite pleasant. Hoping this helps out in speeding the process. Updated the signature below. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I don't even think that the worker checked the date. I went in the afternoon and there were few people there.
