Baltimore N-400 Timeline

Can someone confirm that if we go for FP at CIS office in Baltimore that we might we offered the Civic test the same day?

Thank you.
I went to Baltimore for fingerprinting and they offered me the civic test right on the spot. I was in a hurry and I did not take one. What they told me that they will give a booklet to prepare. You can take your own time and write the test. if you fail - you will be given another chance during final interview. If you pass you are done, you dont have to take civic test during interview. Civic test questions are silly anyone can answer. So if they offer go for it.

Thanks for the info. MY FP appointment is @3pm and I just don't want to loose another day going to the CIS office for the Civic test.
 
A friend of mine, her priority date was May 18, 2007. About last week she recieved an interview letter scheduled January 23, 2008. My priority date is June 11, 2007. So those of us May and June applicants there is light at the end of the tunnel ha:)


Thank you for the information lulu12. April PD - had lot of IL posts, but May PD seems to be very quiet. Your post gives some hope.
 
Odd Oath time

Had my interview on 12/11 2.40pm
Got the oath letter yesterday. OD 12/27 at 11.00AM. I have never seen 11.00 AM for oath ceremenony. Is this not unusual?

Also, I just take the oath letter and GC to the oath ceremony. Anything else to take?

Nothing else required unless you've traveled overseas between interview & oath, then you may need to show your passport.

11AM is I believe a little unusual, but maybe thats due to the holiday period.

You should take your passport with you to the oat ceremony regardless of whether you traveled out of the country since the interview or not. At my oat ceremony, earlier this year, they asked for and checked everyone's passport, without regard to any travels.

Hello RM_72756

Interview was just a review of the application. I took lot of additional documentation, but nothing was asked. The officer asked the questions at the application again, to make sure that the answers provided are still valid. I forgot to mention one of the traffic citations when I submitted the application, which was not a big deal becaus I paid the fine.

The building is just opposite to the FP building. Plenty of parking.
 
The officer made a note of the traffic ticket on the application. I did not get the same day oath because (my guess) the interview was at 2.40. The officer gave a letter with "RECOmmended for approval" checked. I got the oath letter after a week and took oath on 12/27.

People applied in July getting interviews in Baltimore ? Wow I hope I do not have to wait for long.
 
It is good to know that Baltimore DO moving fast. I applied in last week of October 2007. I received Finger Print Notice today. I am happy to share the same with others. Please see my signature for dates.

I am wondering is anyone done finger printing at CIS BALTIMORE (100 s. Charles street) off late. If so, would you please let me know:
1. Did you take civics test on the same day? Is it allowed or not?
2. Where did you park? I am looking for any near by parking garages.

Thanks for help
 
How to request for same day oath for me and spouse

Hello,

I have oath scheduled for 2morrow and my wife for next week.

Is there way to call or otherway to request to have same day...without risking long delay in oath.

If my wife accompanies me 2morrow can Baltimore folks be requested to accomodate her?

Thanks in advance for advice.

My wife was not offered the civics test the same day. We were told its not an option. Her FP was scheduled at 3pm.

When you turn at Hanover St. there is a parking garage on the right side. Fee is $10 for two hours, $6 for 1 hour.
