Philadelphia PA - N-400 Timeline

Can I use Middle Inital instead of Full Middle Name printed in the Nat.Certificate? Since my SS Card and Drivers license have only Middle Inital right now.

phillydude411: Can't you just walk in on Nov 10th and have your oath taken?

What other steps and clearances USCIS needs to get, before they officially give you a naturalization certificate? I thought when you pass your N400 interview, you are good to go. Correct me please, if I'm wrong.
 
Please reply me

Did you ever knew why it took 5 months until you finally got your Oath Letter?

I finally got my US passport this week. So here's my updated dates.

April 2008 - Applied US Citizen
May 2008 - Finger Prints Scan
Oct 2008 - Interview Passed
March 2009 - Oath
April 2009 - Passport Received

Good Luck everybody!

I have my interview on 11/16...I plan to Travel on 12/18 outside the country until the new years, what happens if my oath is between those days?
Is there to find out oath date during interview? Also - is there a way to get this all done before I Travel?

The oath is usually within 3 weeks, you should be ok. If you miss it they would just reschedule it upto 3 times.
 
Can I correct my middle name in the Oath ceremoney, since USCIS printed in correct middle name in the Oath letter.
 
Is there any one from Delaware waiting for oath

Oath completed today at the Philadelphia DO! It was scheduled at 9AM and we were out by 10:20AM. Overall, it was a great and touching experience and I'm glad to be done with USCIS and proud to be an American!
