Just update from my end. Though the interview is done on June 17th and there is a news floating around about September 5th Oath Ceremony, so far there is no Oath letter in the mail. Keeping my fingers crossed. I will keep all of you posted if I receive something. Good luck to those who will be going for interview soon!

My successful interview was July 10th at the Durham field office and I'm waiting for my oath letter, too. I'll post here as soon as I get mine. I'm still hoping for September 5th; my IO said "in September" when I asked her when my oath ceremony might be.
 
I just talked to the IO after being transfer from the customer service and she said the interview letter was mailed to me on Aug 11 for charlotte and she can't tell me when the interview will be

Try calling again and speak with another IO. They have the interview date available on their screen.
 
i insisted to know the date but she said the only thing i can see on the screen the interview notice has been mailed on Aug 11 for charlotte. Anyway, i am alittle concern, i changed my address on Aug 8 and the interview letter has sent out on Aug 11, do you think the change of address will take effect right a way once you did online? i am not sure where i will get the notice in the old or new address

Try speaking with another IO or do an Infopass.
As for address change, I wouldn't be surprised if it was sent to old address.
 
OK. The September 5th naturalization oath ceremony during the grand opening of the new Raleigh Convention Center is happening three weeks from yesterday. We've heard that the ceremony will include up to 1,000 new to-be citizens. We haven't heard of anyone receiving an invitation to that ceremony yet, with at least three on this thread having passed interviews in June and July. From other threads, I've seen that the oath invitation letters (when not handed out after the interview) are usually mailed 2-4 weeks ahead of the date.

I hope to see a lot of mailings next week and that those of you with interviews later this month will be given your Raleigh September 5th oath letters after you pass the interview!

Initial interview is the main interview. The second "interview" are the few questions they ask you at oath to see if any of your main circumstances have changed since main interview.
 
My interview has been set for Wed Oct 22 2008 at 12:40 PM for Charlotte, possible to get the same day oath?

I haven't seen any reports of same day oath availability at Charlotte. The closest was next day oath as reported by gatedgal a few months ago.
