FP in St. Paul

I have done my FP in St.Paul on Monday(8/28).
It's kind of odd... when I arrived there,
I was the ONLY person who went for FP... totally empty there.
8 workers and only one applicant --- ME!

After FP was done, the staff asked another one coming to check,
since there were 2 finger printing getting 'red light'(not green 'PASS').
The second staff seems has a lot of experience,
she operated the device for few seconds, and told me 'it's done!'.
It took less than 10 mins for whole FP processing.

It seems not too many people applying citizenship in St.Paul area,
time thread is lack of tracking information.
Just want to know when the interview date might be...

I will go back to Singapore next week for applying my birth certificate.
It sucks for we have to apply by person with valid passport in my home country!
 
Well, it is good you are dumping the "police state" citizenship for a US Citizenship:)

Priority Date: 7/31/06
FP Date: 8/28/06
Interview Date: 10/27/06 10AM

Light at the end of Tunnel !!

Got my oath letter for Sept 13th.
My time lines..
PD- - 5/15/2006
FP date - 7/15/2006
ID - 8/30/2006
Oath Letter Recd - 9/2/2006
OD - 9/13/2006

Interview Experience:
It was really smooth and awesome. The officer was courteous and friendly.
I had the appointment at 2.00 pm but reached the INS office at 1.30 pm.
Called in at around 1.42 pm. The officer asked for my GC, passport and driver's license. She verified the N-400 application form details and it was really fast. I had a couple of traffic tickets that I had mentioned in the N-400 form, the officer just read thru it, but did not care for any documentation.(All I had was my driving record for proof as I got those tickets long back and during out of state trips..) She asked me to write an english sentence and asked 6 questions from the standard 96 and before she finished her questions, I answered. Signed my names in the N400, couple of pictures and one more form. Whole process took just around 7-8 minutes..and I was out of the building and in my car by 1.55 pm.
And today got my oath letter too.. St.Paul now a days seem to take just 4 months on an average and it is super cool for N-400 process.
I guess The only thing I need to again apply for is the US Passport and then I'll be out of this immigration Fever..

Question about senators...

Are MN's senators Norm Coleman and Mark Dayton?

My friend told me that MN only have only one senator Norm Coleman now...

Thanks!
 
Need to figure Out

Hey guys;

I know that this is citizenship forum but i need to find processing time for my wife so i am asking you guys for your information.

I am going to have my oath on September 13th, 2006 and want to apply for
I-485 and I-131. We are planning to go back home in december but we are not sure whether we got parole by that time so i am asking anyone to post their recent I-485 and I-131 time line so that it would be easier for us to plan ahead.

There most be someone on this Minneapolis/St.paul who have applied those application for their spouse.

My ID was on 08/31. They finished my interview in 15 mintues. I have no issues like name change/ or speeding tickets etc. So, when would I be expecting a Oath letter., Since my interview was on thursday, and this is a long weekend, IS there a chance that my letter is being posted?

Appreciate any guidance in this query.

I have not yet received letter for the interview. How long should I wait before following up with USCIS? Looking at the timeline posted by others, I should have received it by now...

Thanks
 
To PushpakPatil

I think it's case by case...

I got IL only few days after FP, and 'jpond' got IL almost 3 weeks after FP.
BUT, 'jpond' Interview Date is still few days earlier than mine.

I don't think you have to worry about it.
Good Luck.
 
Any Update/News?

This tread has not been updated for more than one month...

I will have an Interview on this coming Friday, and definitely keep post!

Good Luck!
 
Interview Done yesterday

It was simple as ABC. In and out in 5 min. Asked no documents other than my passport and GC. 6 quick civic questions, few min of chit chat, One English sentense and out of the door.

My guess is you have to try hard enough to fail this interview!!!

Good Luck
 
Jpond, you are right!!!

The interview was as easy as ABC...
It took about 5 mins only, asked 7 questions, e.g. where is the White House, Where is the Capital of MN, etc... Yes, definitely need to try hard to fail it!

I did ask about Oath Date, and IO said it should be held in Nov or Dec.

Good Luck!
