Final report. Although I did not attend, my wife took the oath with about 60 others on the 5th of December at the Federal Courthouse in Cincinnati. She said that it took about two hours from when they got there to when it concluded. One older lady was excluded because it was obvious that they had no understanding of English. My parents and our daughter attended as well, but said that the people who were running the ceremony acted like they never had done one before.
Best of luck to all,
Applied for a passport already so no more dealing with INS, BCIS, or any other new acronyms from now on!!!
