I got the interview letter.
Md_pp, You have a good chance of taking an oath on the same day since most oaths are available on Wednesday and Thursday. -- few oaths on Mon, Tues, Fri, and Sat.
Congratulations on your getting your IL and good luck on your interview!

will officer have a copy of previously passed civcs test
My wife's priority date is Nov 6, 2006. To make a long story short we naively requested to be rescheduled when she received her first appointment in May of 2007. She has now been rescheduled for August 20, 2008. My question is when she began this process and went for her first finger print appointment she was offered the test and passed it. Will the interview officer have proof that she already passed the test or will she need to retake it? I ask because her appointment is @ 2:00 and the last oath is @ 3:00 and as you can imagine we are trying to avoid any more delays.

probably not because after you give the interview notice letter to the booth for 2.40 pm interview, the waiting time in the waiting room is between 15 mins and 45 mins (until you will be called to the interview room) plus the average duration of the interview is between 15 mins and 30 mins. Last oath usually starts at 3 pm. Just pray if the oath is open and seat/slot is available.
If the slot's not available, Do you know if i can go back for the oath next day or will they send me a letter when I need to come for the Oath? Also can i show up at 1 PM even though my appt is at 2:40 PM and see if they can call me earlier.
Thanks in advance!

md_pp: What was the reason you did not have your oath on the same day?
Two things for the oath: 1) you will get an oath letter (future date) if decision is made or not made yet. 2) the officer makes decision and reserve an oath for you right away.
No, the security officers and booth won't allow you to get in earlier than your appointment time. Also, busy interview officers stick to their appointments. If you show up earlier, you will be asked to wait outside. The policy is very strict at the Baltimore office.

I am still waiting too; I have my interview the 14th of July.
Can you please tell me why it could take from 2 weeks to 2 months to receive the Oath Letter if the interview has been after July 07?
Please let me know. I need to plan an international flight, family reason, and I cant do anything for right now. Thanks.

All because of name change
I didn't take the oath immediately after the interview because I was requesting name change on my N-400 application. The Immigration Officer said I will receive the oath letter in the mail. One of my friend was in the similar situation a few months ago and it took about two month for her to get the oath letter after the interview. I hope that time frame still hold for now.
