I went for my interview today, got approved and have oath ceremony on 4/22/2005, that makes my whole process over 3 months, Dallas must be one of the quickest judging by this, my interview experience is posted below and thanks everyone for posting to this board, hope everyone has as good or better experience in future.
My dates are as follows at Dallas DO:
PD: January 3rd 2005
FD: February 1st 2005
Interview: April 5th 2005
Oath: April 22nd 2005
Interview was easy, whole process took about 10 minutes. I arrived about 10 minutes before my interview, took some time to get in the door then I sat down and they called my name about 5 or 10 mins later. The lady was very professional, a friendly lady, but more professional. Started going through my application and asked questions that were in the app, as we were going through the app she would initial and stamp another form she was writing on, and I noticed that she marked my N652 as passed the test and "Congratulations! Your application has been reccomended for approval", then she put 3 pieces of paper in front of me, finished going through app and had me sign the last piece of the app, then she said "this photo is going to be on your naturilization certificate so sign first middle and last name, then we went through civics and history test, asked me 6 questions out of 10, I got all 6 right, asked me to read a sentence, and then write some other sentence, then congratulated me for passing and being approved, one of the 3 papers she put in front of me had my name and DOB which she asked me to review as that was going to be what went onto my naturilization certificate, then she asked me what county I lived in ... I told her and she said the next oath ceremony was on April 22nd could I make it - I said definately yes! She printed out form N445 with the oath notice and the date when I need to appear. Then told her that my wife and I are taking an extended overseas vacation to Europe and that it would be nice to travel on US Passport, thanked her for being professional and I left. All in all a very pleasant process.
