Hi guys,
Just wanted to update you on my timeline. I had my interview yesterday and took the oath yesterday too. I was a bit nervous because of dual A#s (I know I had a different A# during OPT). I had just included a letter in my application mentioning the dual A# and requesting the files be consolidated for my interview.
My interview was for 1.40. I arrived around 1.25 and they let me in but they were already people waiting there before me. I got called around 3.40, and my interview was done within 10 minutes.
The interview officer asked me for my passport and green card after having me promise to speak the truth. Reviewed my N400 app (i mentioned my traffic ticket as well and said I had a court disposition for it but he said it was not needed). He also asked me the civic questions - just 6.
The interview officer was pretty nice. He made some jokes as well! Also he asked me about my date of marriage and husband's date of birth, etc. I had brought all documents but he said he had copies of all that he needed so he didn't ask for one doc!
Anyway, that was it for the interview and he handed me interview passing sheet and an oath certificate.
The oath was a little after 4.30 and we just did it in the waiting since everyone was kind of tired (they asked if we wanted to stay there or go to the waiting room).
The only benefit to going significantly earlier than your interview would just be mental peace of getting done with it earlier. Other than that, everyone takes oat at the same time. The morning ppl take it around 1.30 and the afternoon ppl around 4.30/5.00.
But yeah, that's about it...quite a relief.
Just thought I'd post my update. I have to look at all my dates so I'll post a timeline after this post.

My PD is March 22. Biometrics and background check has been completed, and as of last month I was in the queue for an IL. However, I have not received the appointment letter yet. Would be curious to know if anyone else with a March PD has an IL.
havegc
In the interview..did they ask you how long you stayed with the employer after GC? if you left employer between 6 to 12 months, did they ask for a reason or any document supporting it?
Thanks in advance
