I and my wife reached the N. Stemmons Freeway location at 7.30 AM to attend our interviews scheduled for 8 AM. I was promptly called by a lady officer at 8 AM for the interview and my wife a few minutes after that by a male officer. I was put under oath and then I presented my Driver's license, SS Card, Passport and I also presented the changes to my application form (trips outside US after filing N-400). The officer questioned on why I have 5 traffic tickets over the past five years and told me that it looks like that there is a pattern in my driving history (I became nervous immediately after hearing that). She then asked me questions related to the information on my N-400 form (like my address, phone number, current employer, height etc.) and then she gave me the civics test. I was asked the following questions:
(1) Who is Martin Luther King Jr.
(2) Who makes the laws in the United States
(3) What is the name of the ship that brough the pilgrims to the US
(4) What do the stripes on the national flag mean
(5) Name atleast one right provided by the first amendment
(6) Where is the White House located?
I answered all of these questions correctly and then she asked me to read and write a sentence. I was anxious to know the result of the interview since I have five different A files (three during F1 EAD OPT's, one on my H1-B and one on my I-485) and was not sure whether the duplicate A file issue is going to come up. The Officer told me that 'Congratulations, I'm recommending you for Citizenship'. I was so happy to hear this and she gave me the Oath Letter for the Oath Ceremony in Dallas (I live in Irving, Dallas County) for Sep. 18th. I asked the Officer on whether I can attend the ceremony in Plano on 6/29 and she told me that since it is a judicial ceremony, I can't attend it. I thanked her and left the office with my son. In the mean time, my wife's interview had gone well and she got appointment for the Oath Ceremony for 7/11 in Arlington. Once my wife came out of the interview, we checked out Oath Ceremony dates and I wanted to check whether I can move my date to 7/11. The officer who interviewed my wife came out to call somebody else for interview and I talked to him to see whether he can move my oath ceremony to 7/11. He asked me to wait for a few minutes and he came back in two minutes with a new oath letter for the 7/11 ceremony. I thanked him and we left the building at 8.20 AM. It was a very pleasant experience and it also looks like if you haven't gone through the CP process and have got different A numbers, it looks like you may not run into problems. Thanks for everyone's advice and guidance over the past few months. Overall, here is my timeline.
N-400 Applied: 1/14
N-400 Receipt Date: 1/17
Finger Print Date: 2/17
Interview Date: 6/14
Oath: 7/11
Overall, it has taken 6 months for me and my wife to wrap up this process. Thanks everyone.
