Congratulations on passing your interview @Valtom - please do share your interview experience! Were you applying on 5 years as a PR or 3 yrs from marriage?

Also @Go-Cougars - lucky you with the interview date! Enjoy Hawaii and practice your civics while there :)
 
I received excellent service; these people are professional, not just with me but what I have seen while I was there. The process is just like what everyone has described before:
-you give your interview letter at the window
-someone will call your name and will test you and will ask you to have a seat.
-someone else will call your name for an interview (mine took an hour) going through your App
-you will know your result at the end of the interview
- Some people got their oath letters and some didn't
relax and be confident
Good luck to all
 
Thanks Valtom for reporting on your experience! Have a great 4th! And enjoy the Oath!

Meanwhile I'm waiting for my FP notice, I hope it comes soon...
 
How long did it take for others to get your FP notice? I'm seeing about 2 weeks from NOA on this forum, does this seem right? I received my NOA June 19th, the priority date was June 12th? Thanks for any guidance... otherwise I will wait the obligatory 30 days I guess... and then start calling/infopass...
 
I think it depends how soon you get your NOA after mailed out? In my case, I got my NOA in three weeks then get FP notice in one week after NOA. I guess it's about one month after your PD to receive your FP notice.
 
Update: Passed interview and test Monday, scheduled for oath tomorrow, Wednesday (7/8/09) - go figure, I thought for sure we would have passed the cutoff date and be scheduled for August/September. Houston really is moving like clockwork, very impressive compared to six years ago.

07/08/2009: Oath - *End of Journey - Beginning of another journey*

Very similar experiences like other members of the post. We reached Campbell center WEST parking lot around 6:45 am and the parking lot was getting full. There was a single queue which got split into different sections depending upon the last 3 digits of your GC. We were asked to drop our GC's and completed form and were given a colored paper. We took a seat and it was around 9:50 that the actual proceedings started. There were about 1100 people from 110 countries and the oath ceremony was over in 20 min. Filled out the voter registration card and picked up our Naturalization certificates.

We were out by 11 and headed to the Post office to apply for PP which took another 2 hours. Whew:rolleyes:

Note: We were seeing people coming in around 8:30 too. So if you have small kids take it easy - even though the appt letter states 7 there were people still trickling in around 9 ish.

End of one journey and I am sure another one is just lurking around the corner:p

Again I would like to thank all members of this board for sharing all their experiences and making this process a much needed smooth ride.

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!!
