San Jose, CA - N-400 Timeline

Thanks folks for the details.
Here are mine.

Application Sent on: 06/03/05
FP: 7/20/05

rest will follow.
 
We had our fingerprinting taken today at 122 Charcot Ave, San Jose, CA. If you are going to this service center for taking your finger prints, not that yahoo map slightly misguide you.

Following are directions from Yahoo from Cupertino,

Take 280 south, Take 880 North, Take Brokaw Rd exit, Take Left of E Brokae Rd., Take Right on Zanker Road, Take Right on Charcot Ave.

Everything is fine except last step, i..e Take Right on Charcot Ave. Instead of Right, take left on Charcot Ave, after few feet take left on first street and immediate right in the parking lot. Firgure print service center is located at other end of the parking lot after entering.

I hope this will help to everyone who is going to above service center for fingure printing.

How long between Interview and Oath

Hi All

I just completed my oath in San Jose. ( July 12th). Just wondering how long it takes to get to the oath stage. Understand that there is a oath scheduled on Aug 23rd and am wondering if oath is scheduled at such a short notice after Interview ?

You mean you just completed your interview in San Jose. Can you post your timeline? Also can you post your interview experience. How about history and civics questions? Were they all from standard 100 questions? I think that you will get Oath letter in a week or two for Aug 23rd. For some DO, oath is on the same day as interview.

The interview was very simple. Took about 6-7 minutes. The immigration officer basically went through the N400 application. One questions per page on an average. Nothing special. My wife's took maybe 10 minutes.

I went there really prepared. Took lots of paperwork like 5+ yrs of tax returns, all travel/visa paperwork, etc but you don't need them. They pretty much went by the book in my case. Do remember to take what is required though :) The person sitting next to me forgot his passport! Green card, driver's license, passport were checked.


Regarding the questions, asked both of us from the standard list.

Dates:
Priority date: 3/1
Interview: 7/12

Early fingerprint...

I am scheduled for FP on 8/9. However, I have a potential business trip that would conflict with it. So I was thinking of doing FP earlier.

Does anyone have experience in doing FP earlier than schduled at San Jose INS application support center? Do I need to call them or just show up.

Thanks.
