They told me that the oath letter was mailed on Jan 5. My oath was on Jan 28. So you should have enough time.

My misadventure with USPS continues.
We went to Eastridge mall USPS early in the morning on Saturday around 9am (It opens at 10pm). There was a long line. We waited in the long line with my little daughter for an hour and then were told that the only lady that handles passport applications there was sick and not coming in.
Cursing USPS we drove to next closest PO and reached there at 10.30am (This post office opens at 10am) We were told that they cannot handle this overflow and will not be handling more people. Go Home.
This post office has 4 people working. 4 people working and they cannot handle overflow? What is wrong with this country?
Luckily my wife had taken an appointment for Wednesday at Sunnyvale Mary post office. On Monday my wife had a doubt. While taking the appointment she said "I need an appointment" and did not say "Me, My hubby and little daughter".
So she called the PO and found that she needs to make appointment for all of us and since she had not done that she would need to reschedule. Now I understand that it takes 10 minutes for one person and 20 minutes for maybe three but
USPS would not extend the courtesy of another 10 minutes to us.
My wife cancelled the appointment and rescheduled it at Campbell post office today. On Wednesday she got a call from Sunnyvale post office asking her why she did not show up. Hello! We cancelled. Remember?
I am keeping my fingers crossed today. Me and my wife both have to take half a day off and my daughter has to miss school. So I hope it will be worth this appointment.
Most information about timings on USPS site are wrong. Like the one in campbell is only open till 2am on the website but I have an appointment for 3.15. Screwy?
In India, Mumbai a city of 10 million people there is one passport office and it takes half an hour to apply through an agent and 15 days to receive a passport at home with a paltry sum. For God's sake they hand write the names on the passport.
And in the greatest country in the world I have to run around to make an appointment. Something is wrong with this whole system.
I think I will break a coconut and offer some bribe to Indian gods. Hopefully they will have to come to my rescue and save me from this USPS stupidity.
People, Make your appointment in advance if you know the date of your Oath ceremony. Make the appointment as soon as you get the Oath letter.
Don't trust the timing on the USPS website. Keep calling the USPS to find out about the REAL times. And don't give up when nobody picks up the phone.
It takes 12 to 15 times for you to call until the people there pick up the phone. Keep calling. If you have kids you only have Saturday unless you want to waste a weekday.
If you plan to go without appointment go an hour early before opening time and stand in line. Ask your wife and kid to come during opening time later.
Its horrible for the kids to stand in line for hours.

Desibartender, hope your USPS appointment today was uneventful. Thanks for the heads-up though. I was thinking of applying for the passport a day or two later, but I think I'll apply for it at the Natz Ceremony itself. Seems to be much easier than at the post office.
UPDATE: i called USCIS with numbers provided in previous posts, i guess its not a "lost" mail for mine. the first rep was kind enough to send me to 2nd level IO, though she was firm on the 90-day wait. IO told me that i passed my exam and requirements but there's one 'other' department that needs to submit/update my application and that is the one holding up my process.
12.16.09 Interview date
still waiting for OL/OD
Finally, got my oath letter! Feb 25 at Campbell. It said bring immigration papers/documents, which one(s)?

You can apply for it at Natz Ceremony ? I did not know that.
I have a ceremony @ SJC this Friday (2/19). Please share any info on how to do that.

Just take your oath letter and your green card with you. That's what I took with me. Your oath letter should also mention what you need to take.

My spouse has applied for name change on the application form. But now we are having second thoughts because of the delay it might incur in taking the oath and therefore retract the request during the interview. In reading other posts, it seems that certain jurisdictions are exempt from this delay. Is San Jose one of these? Otherwise, does anyone here have an estimate as to how much additional time this would add?
