San Antonio TX - N-400 Timeline

Updates:

At my INFOPASS appointment, I was told by the IO that my file did not arrive in time for the 09/18/2009 interview date and hence the descheduling notice was automatically sent out.

He found out that I was already assigned a new date (11/10/2009) for which the letter has not been mailed yet.

Today status changed to "Your case has been transferred to a local office and an interview will be scheduled"
 
Hi nfn,

Did your case status change on the website after your interview and prior to receiving the oath letter? (And did you get a corresponding email?)

I had my interview last Wednesday (10/21) and was curious.

Thanks, and congratulations.

NO it didn't change...nor did I receive an e-mail...

The only time it changed and received an e-mail was when I was about to interview...it changed from application submitted and pending (in the old website) to testing and interview (in the new website)...
 
Received Oath Letter on Friday, 10/30/2009.

Oath is scheduled for Nov 19, San Antonio.

No update to online case status (and no email to this effect either!)
 
Had my interview yesterday.

My appointment was at 8:30am, and I was at the office by 7:50am. I was called in at around 8:20am by a very pleasant and jovial IO. He did small talk as we walked to his office, and he was telling me all the way that this should be like less than 30 minutes and painless.

He started by asking me to raise my hand and take the oath.

He than asked for the DL, GC, and the current passport, and asked if I wanted to change my name.

He then went thru the entire N-400 application, just verifying information. No documents were requested to verify any information.

Then he had me read the question: “Who can Vote?”
Then he had me write the answer: “Citizens can Vote.”

He then asked me the following 10 questions:
1. How many amendments does the Constitution have?
2. Who makes federal laws?
3. What is the name of the Vice President of the United States now?
4. What are two Cabinet-level positions?
5. What does the judicial branch do?
6. What is the highest court in the United States?
7. What is one power of the federal government?
8. What group of people was taken to America and sold as slaves?
9. Why did the colonists fight the British?
10. What territory did the United States buy from France in 1803?

No idea why he asked me 10 when I got all of them correct, but I was not going to ask him that question!

Then he asked me to sign on photos, etc. and congratulated me for passing the interview.

He asked if I have questions for him. I asked when I can take the oath. He said it can take up to 120 days to get the oath letter, but they have it at least once every month so it may just happen this month or next.
