N400 Timeline: Houston, TEXAS

Hi Krish10 - can I ask which ASC you did the walk in at? I'd really like to do my FP sooner, but it didn't say anything on the letter about it. Mine is the Sugar Land ASC.

Congratulations on the interview letter!!

I did my FP in Sugar land ASC.you can try there,they asked me the reason for early FP.I told them I will be on vacation for scheduled FP.Then they accepted it.Best of luck.
 
Thanks Krish10 - I may give it a try tomorrow, in the morning, my original appt is at 9am so maybe I'll try the same time - perhaps I will be taking your original appointment :D It would be much more convenient than in 2 weeks time when I have a lot of work meetings going on. Is it a new ASC there? It's about 20 miles from our home in the Galleria, surprised I have to go there...
 
i actually think that arriving at 9 AM is a big mistake as i know someone who was unable to attend and was rescheduled, so don't take chances and get there the time you were supposed to be.
 
Well I didn't get a chance to try walk-in FP today - too much work to do. I'm on list on another forum, and everybody else is doing walk-in, I will be the last in the queue, oh well...

For me they said no when I went at 8AM.
They have slabs like 8AM-10AM, 10AM-12AM. If you at the begining of the slab like 8AM they may say no. Go at around 9AM by that counter will be free. So they may take it.

Just called USCIS, the second level IO told me my name check did not come back, so they have not set up my interview yet. Actually, the next day after my FP, I called FBI, they told me my FP was sent back to USCIS. Apparently, my name check has not completed. Still waiting...

Just read the booklet. There were easy questions
 
Congratulations BArnold!

May I ask if you were applying based on 3yrs of marriage+PR or 5 yrs as a PR? Just asking since they didn't ask to see additional docs... (I'm applying based on 3 yrs of marriage+PR)

Thanks and congratulations again!

Passed our naturalization interview today, Interview experience was very professional and refreshing. Went in the building at 9:50am and came out at 11:00am so the entire event took an hour and 15 minutes. We placed our interview letter in the box and were called in 10 minutes, written and civic test first. IO asked me to read "How many Senators we have" and then told me to write "We have one hundred Senators". Civic questions;
- What is the name of National Anthem?
- What happened on Sep 11th
- Why we have 13 stripes on the flag
- Some thing about "Rule of law" something and two more questions
Then we waited 5 minutes and called by another IO, took us to him office and went over the N-400 application- confirmed our home address, where you work, kids etc.... no documents asked. Have to sign application and Photos in the end. Got the approval and waited for another 15 minutes for oath letter.

8/19 is going to be a big day after 9 years here in US on H1 to USC. Lived an American dream and will be a proud Citizen!
