Should I be nervous

Had my interview on Wed 5/18/2011. IO said I would be recommended for approval for Naturalization and I should receive notice for the oath ceremony. I have had a GC since 1985 but in the country since 1974. Wife is USC, married for 30 years, five children all USC and adults.

In the interview, an arrest came up (no charges, no coviction) from 1976 I forgot about. I did not list it. No other legal issues other than two minor traffic tickets > 5 years ago.

Questions: What happens after interview? Can my application be denied? I am assuming my background check was completed since they had the arrest record.
 
If you were "recommended for approval", it means they considered all the facts and still thought you qualify. The next steps are mainly procedural in terms of supervisor review and oath scheduling. A supervisor may review and block it, but the chances of revoking this are pretty slim ... supervisors usually review applications which are NOT recommended.

Thank you. Makes me feel a bit less worried. How long does it usually take from interivew to oath ceremony? I am thinking it may go quickly since it is so close to July 4th?
