Chicago IL - N-400 Timeline

Pass interview and oath on Dec.14

I had my interview today, and I PASSED! It was extremely easy. I walked in the IO told me to hold up my right hand and swear to tell the truth. After which she went straight into the test questions. I was asked 6 questions and I nailed all six. After which we went over the application. She asked if I still worked for company XYZ, and I said "Yes." Lastly, she went into the questions. He never asked about traffic tickets. Everything went well and the interview is OVER! Everything took 15 minutes,except the oath letter took over an hour to arrive.

Yes, fill out the DS-11 passport application, take your naturalization certificate, a copy of your photo id, two passport pictures, and lastly your airline tickets or itenery to 230 S. Dearborn. Make sure you make an appointment NOW with the passport agency, otherwise they wont help you out at all. For the visa go to the website download the form, then take your indian passport, with the application, and your US Passport, plus the dollar amount requested, and can you get your visa the same day.

This all works if you have your airline tickets purchased already.

Good Luck!

The whole process was very smooth. She carried only passport, DL, GC originals.
Chicago999,
Expidited passports are supposed to take a week or two. Make sure to take an appointment with regional office ASAP.

The passport office will check to see if you paid. I recommend taking an appointment before you go.

Just curious. The IO didn't give the oath letter when he/she passed you? I thought Chicago DO asks you to wait outside for the oath letter if the interview goes well.

Hi, I am just curious, I have just finished my Oath ceremony this week and I actually took it at the Immmigration building on congress parkway. So, in addition, are there situations, that a judge in a court swears one in at a district court?

My friend is going through this process and so I was not sure. Thanks!
