Received Oath letter for Nov 16 - But Cannot attend

Received Oath Letter for Nov 16. 12:30 PM in Denver.
Interview was on Aug 24.

Unfortunately, maynot be able to take oath on that day.
Leaving for India on Nov 19. So, too little time to get
US passport and Indian Visa. Basically one week day.

Is it possible to postpone oath by 3-4 months ?

I guess it depends on how big a risk taker you are. You can make an appointment at the Denver Passport office for the 17th (or even 16th afternoon) and get a passport issued same day. Then go to SFO embassy on 18th and get a visitor visa issued. They normally give it to you by the evening. All this will cost extra $$$ which is better than postponing it.
 
Oath Ceremony - 2 times on the same day

There are 2 oath ceremonies on the same day. One is at 8:30 AM and
the other one is at 12:30 PM

Is it OK to show up for the 8:30 AM one if you are scheduled for 12:30 PM
Do they allow you ?

In this case those 4 hours are quite helpful for us.

They had all the certificates arranged in a box when I went in for the morning session. The certificates were sorted based on the last 3 digits of your A number (GC number). They issue you a seat number so that the certificates can be sorted in that order. You also need to go up to the stage in the same order.

So I am not sure if they can pull your certificate from the afternoon batch? Might give it a try by going to the Denver office and asking them.
 
Thanks for the information. Took an appointment with Denver DO for
Nov 7. Hope it will work out.

Thanks again.

Denver N-400 experience - mostly smooth sailing

N-400 applied in June. Oath completed 16 Nov.

Our experience is generally very good.
We had to wait for oath a little longer than some others. It took us
about 82 days after interview.

Some things that are worthy of mentioning.

Finger Printing: We could not go on the date of appointment.
We went there after a week. They let us complete Fingerprinting
eventhough our appointment is not that day. It is all done in
about 30 min. Very Polite, fast and quick.

Interview : We had to wait about an hour or so. But it is done
quickly, Polite, Professional. Good Experience.

Oath: We made travel plans based on others experience that you get
you get your oath date in about 4-6 weeks. Unfortunately, Ours was
delayed. I donot know why. We had to wait for 11 weeks.
We went to Denver office to query about Oath. They just told us you
had to wait. Yours will be scheduled. We cannot expedite. Infopass
appointments are not productive in our case.

Oath was scheduled on a Thursday afternoon. We
found out that there was another ceremony in the morning on the
same day. We
showed up in the morning itself and requested if we could finish the
oath ceremony and get our nat certificate. We explained that we
want to go to Colorado Passport Agency and apply for the passport
on the sameday. They took the details and allowed us to finish the
oath. Oath Ceremony took about 2 hours. It is mostly waiting for
everyone to check in. The actual ceremony took less than an hour.

We went straight to Colorado Passport Agency and applied for the
passport. They gave the passport in 3 hours as we explained that
we planned to travel in couple of days and we need to get a visa
at the consulate in San Francisco. The lady was courteous and
helpful.

Generally speaking, Our experience is very good. It helps to have
all your ducks in a row and you have no skeletons in your closet.

We found very useful information on this forum and it was very
helpful. Some posters were helpful with their responces. Thanks
everyone. I may not be able to reply until 3 weeks as I will be
away on a trip.

update

Just a quick update for both myself and my husband.

My husband took oath yesterday and got his certificate. He had a chance to talk with assistant director of Denver district office. He asked about my case. The assistant director said he would check the case and call us back. He suspected my case was pending name check. Currently there are more than 700 cases in Denver pending name check.

Questions about N-400 Form

1. How do I save the N400 form>? I typed a bunch of stuff in Adobe Acrobat and nothing was saved.

2. Part 2: Information about your eligibility:
My 5 years is coming up in Apr 2007. Can I still say that I am over 18 and have been a legal resident for the last 5 years or is there any other box that I need to check?


3. Number of trips:
a. How many total days did you spend outside of the United States during the past five years?
Do I need to check for 5 years before April 2007 (I became a LPR in Apr 2002) or from the date of the application?


4. H. Oath Requirements. (See Part 14 for the Text of the Oath)
I am assuming that I need to answer questions 34-39 when i send in my application, right?

5. What is this selective service? Should we be worried about this?

Question on Timing to Apply

I have observed that people get FP notice in abou1-2 weeks and also FP appt 1week - 10 days from the notice.

i am planning on traveling in January for about 3 weeks starting in the last week. My 90 days does not come up till the first 3 weeks. I was thinking of sending in my application before I traveled.

What will happen if I GET an FP appt when I am traveling? Can i reschedule? Please advice.

i do not want to wait till I get back to apply. So, please advice on what a resonable course of action would be...
 
Timeline for NSC/Denver Citizenship processing

This is for me and my wife

District office - Denver
Service center - NSC
Application sent - Nov 10th 2006
Application Received - Nov 13th
Priority date - Nov 13th
Finger print notice - Dec 10
Finger printing date - Dec 29th
 
I submitted my N-400 in Oct, got my finger prints done in Nov and got my interview day for early Jan. So a few weeks left. And hearing the experiences here in Denver it's nice to hear that it's been pretty hassle free.

So hopefully I will get in and out fairly quickly...
 
Can someone please answer my question?

Can someone please answer my question or give me some pointers. Thanks.

First you have save the form on your computer. To do that right click once you highlight the form and click "save target as" and save it on your local hard disk. Then open the form and type in your information and then on the FILE menu there is a save option please use that to save your form

2. Part 2: Information about your eligibility:
My 5 years is coming up in Apr 2007. Can I still say that I am over 18 and have been a legal resident for the last 5 years or is there any other box that I need to check?

Yes you can say that and check that box.

3. Number of trips:
a. How many total days did you spend outside of the United States during the past five years?
Do I need to check for 5 years before April 2007 (I became a LPR in Apr 2002) or from the date of the application?

You need to check from the day you became a Permanent resident. So 5 years before April 2007.

4. H. Oath Requirements. (See Part 14 for the Text of the Oath)
I am assuming that I need to answer questions 34-39 when i send in my application, right?

YES


5. What is this selective service? Should we be worried about this?

It depends on what age did you become a Permanent resident. If you became a permanent resident after 26 years of age you do not have to worry. However please search the forum on Selective services for more information.
