I just got my US Passport. I applied with regular processing at the RTP Post Office on the 10th and it came in the mail today. It was nice to finish with a nice, smooth process with the State Department after all the USCIS processes, which seemed to take forever. I hope that all of you waiting for oath letters and interviews can be in this same position soon. I really hope that many of you will be able to join me in voting in the US for the first time soon!

I had my interview today 09/22/08 for citizenship, they asked me ten questions about US history from the book they already gave me. I waited more than 4 hours (came from 8:00 am and left 12:15 pm) finally, they gave my result and an appointment for my oath ceremony on 10/02/08 which I did not expect, it is just 10 days from today (interview day). I think now they start give your appointment for the ceremony in the same day of interview instead of mails it to you.

Another example of USCIS process inconsistency; scheduling oaths on same day for some as others are placed in oath queue.

at least it looks like, all of those descheduled people can be relieved that this really was a staffing/organizational issue, and that their name checks, one of the dreaded parts of the whole process (perhaps the most dreaded) have actually gone ok. That, I think, should be an indirect piece of good news until the new IL comes. To me, it really was...

click on "go advanced" button below the reply form. that will take you to a form with smileys. just click on them to add them.
Inconsistency reigns at USCIS; I'm done, but I feel for those who are still working to understand how the "system" works when there is no ckear evidence of a "system" in the first place. Your time will come, and believe me, the feeling you get at the end is (almost) worth all the hassle and stress it took to get there.
Yes, I'm still hoping by week's end I'll at least will know. I'll be calling USCIS again tomorrow to see if they have any date set.
Interview in 2 days - butterflies in stomach!!!
I have my interview on 09/25. I have read several posts about interview experience, recently from Bobsmyth and others in Durham DO itself. Still, I have butterflies in my stomach. I hope everything goes well.
Wish me luck guys!!
I wish you all the best and you should get your OL this week.
thanks,

You'll do fine newbie001..the longest part will be the wait in waiting area before the interview. The interview itself will only take about 15 minutes, baring any major complications.Good luck !!
