Tampa FL - N-400 Timeline

Hey Everybody,
I am very happy I got my interview letter today. I will tell everything in this forum about my interview experience. is there anybody just can tell me the following answer:
01. In the reading part, do I need to read some sentences just looking it.
02. In the writing part, do I need to write something just looking it. Or, IO will just tell the sentence and I need to write it down as he says?

DO- Tampa

Thanking you,

In answer to your questions,
1. The officer will give you a sentence on a piece of paper to read. Mine was 'We have 100 Senators.'
2. The officer will read a sentence to you while you write, I think he read it 3 times as I wrote, 'The largest State is Alaska.'

i am all finished now, but my wife has her interview on 3/30/10 so I guess I'll be around for a while still.

your wife and I had the interview the same day mine was at 9 am... i came in and was called right away though there were a lot of people in the waiting area. the interview was quick. She went straight to the questions and the interview was done very fast.

DID YOUR WIFE GET A OATH DATE ? my officer didn't give me one she said i'll be getting a letter in the mail.
how did your wife do ?

Hi westlondon88,

My wife's appointment went very well, she was scheduled for 7.50am, was called by the same very friendly officer I had at about 7.55, she was finished and we were on our way home by 8.05am. The officer told my wife to expect an oath letter for Thursday April 22nd at Tampa Convention Center, she was glad that it didn't come for Friday April 23rd, she would have had problems taking her oath on Shakespeare's birthday :)
 
Well it's been a while folks. Sorry I have been busy with the Police stuff. Now I can finally be a cop......

I had my interview in Tampa today. Interview was cake. Typical 6 easy question, then STAMP APPROVED! Let me tell you all that USCIS is a great agency!!!!!! Very rear, but my lawyer pulled some strings for me and I got to take oath right in the office after my interview (which is unheard of in Tampa)! How you do this is have your attorney contact the N-400 supervisor via email for you Tampa filiers! I didn't want to wait 1-2 months for the oath at the convention center.....

Again, USCIS Tampa was very very professional. Hell they even took a pictire for me because I didn't have a camara. They also let the wife come back to watch. The N-400 supervisor even gave me a hug after she shook my hand to congrads me on being a U.S. citizen!

Good luck to all at this stage! I will be on here every now and then.

Hey guys,

After you take oath, do you ever get an offical approval letter from USCIS via mail for your N-400?? Or just the certificate of naturalization?
