Hi. I am new to this forum. I have just sent my N400 application last December awaiting for the receipt notice. It is highly likely that I will be having a oath ceremony in SF DO, as Thinking has done the interview process.

I have one question. According to Thinking's interview, the interview officer has asked a question regarding Thinking's 11 years old traffic ticket.
I think I also had one traffic ticket (speeding) more than 10 years ago. Of course, I did pay the fine and go to a traffic school for that. However, I did not have the record of paying fine nor traffic school certificate because it is too old. For my future interview, will it be a problem?

Please answer my question and I appreciate your help.

you need to take
N 445 form and other documents mentioned in N445
Green Card
If applying for Passport, Passport related documents from the passport form.
 
Completed my oath ceremony on 1/24. Over 1500 people present, 100 countries. Drove to Masonic center; reached there by 7.40 AM. Got parking on Level 4. Better to reach early as parking space gets filled up soon ($20 special event parking). Anyway everything got wrapped up by 11.30 AM. Applied passport same day expediated+overnight mail.

USCIS is telling applicants to wait 90 days after interview for oath date and to call back after that time if no oath date letter is received.
 
My oath ceremony experience

Hello all,

On January 24th, 2008, I took my citizenship oath and became a United States citizen.

Their were a total of 1,458 individuals sworn in.
I came from the east bay, so I drove to west Oakland and took BART, got off Powell and took a cab to masonic center for $6, since I was running late. You can also choose to walk from Powell to the event center; it is a walkable distance.

I will like to thank everyone on this forum for their contributions and help. I wish the rest of you awaiting your citizenship all the best and good luck.

I will still be available to answer questions from time to time.

LOL... my interview was in June 2006 and the oath letter arrived a couple of weeks ago -- a year and a half later. I reckon my case is not the norm, but you're on pins after just 17 days?
 
Yes on Pins and Needles!

Its actual Sunnycalif2007’s fault.. He had the same IL date as me here in SFO 1/10 and already got the Oath Letter seven days after! I figure since my case was so simple I would have had my oath scheduled during one of the two dates CIS has booked at the Masonic in Feb.. I’ve been here with a green card for 26 years I suppose I can wait just a little bit more except I would pull my hair out if I wasn’t part of this election!!!:D

Thanks

Hi Sunny,

I dont think your location matters, Im in Pacifica which is close to San Fran. You just got lucky and the February Oath dates are probably already full. USCIS likes to give you a full month's notice of your oath date so hopfully I'll be scheduled for March.

My request to USCIS to reschedule my oath ceremony was promptly accommodated. Within two weeks of receiving their invitation and sending my request, I received an invitation for the next available ceremony (in SF) on Feb 26 '08.

So rescheduling the oath ceremony is not a terrible thing and did not cause any horrific delay. :)
 
Received my form N-445 today!

Well everyone the wait is over; not such a long wait, seven months and one day from the moment I mailed my N-400. Scheduled for oath on 2/26 in SFO.
I was just settling in to the idea that I might actualy wait 120 days from the IL date so finding this golden ticket in the mail today was a much appreciated surprise.
See you there Zbenye!

Update: My Interview done & successful yesterday @ SFO

Hi Everyone,
Had a successful interview 1/31/08 at Sansome St. office, SFO.:)
I reached SFO Sansome office by 7:30am, appointment was for 7:55am. I had driven so parked at the public parking structure at Hilton. Usual security check. My cellphone is a regular one - no camera - so no problem. Checked in at the reception on 2nd floor, made to wait in Area B. I was called in at 8:05 am. Took oath and had a seat.
The IO asked me for my GC, Passport(s) and DL. She asked me general questions about the application form - dates regarding residency, work, travel out of US. Wrote a sentence that I was told to write in cursive, answered the 10 questions I was asked (scored 9 on 10 !) She had my pictures so did not have to give any new ones. I had to sign a couple of times and then done !!
She was a polite officer with just a hint of a smile at the end of the interview when I thanked her.
out in 15-17 minutes.
Hope my spouse has a similar experience - his is today.

Your Oath Date: March 25

You will probably receive your oath letter on Feb 22 or 23 and you will be scheduled
for Mar 25 SF Masonic Center. There is a Oath date set for Mar 11 but you would have
received your notice for that already.. Congrats!
