havefun said:What kind of document should one bring during Oath Ceremony?
I am planning to bring Passport and Permanent Resident Card only and of-course N-445 filled and signed. But do we need anything else?
This should be in sticky or in FAQ so that others can benefit as well.

Close enough to BDSM. What is needed is on the letter, but somehow we find a way to include additional stuff.N400TriState said:Sounds to me like some sort of sadomasochism – it is clearly stated on your oath letter what to bring/wear to the ceremony.
kblacwell said:Take your green card, the oath invitation letter. The green card will be taken from you before you receive your certificate. Other than those two things I don't think you need anything else.

boatbod said:Correct! I think you'll find most customs & immigration officers rather unsympathetic if you try to travel without a passport. Technically I believe you may be able to re-enter the US using your Naturalization certificate, but not if you've already sent it to dept of state with your passport app...
N400TriState said:I would have to disagree with this - once you become a Citizen and (let's just assume) you leave US without your US passport and without certificate, once you try to re-enter they WILL let you in, but make sure you have water and money to wait several days at the customs
If you're a citizen - you are a citizen.

Is there a way to update it from GC to USC? I didn't think so...
Flydog said:You don't need a passport to enter Canada as a US citizen, your naturalization cert should do (or, if you are a Canadian citizen, your Canadian passport or citizenship card). To re-enter to the US, your naturalization cert should do for now.
This changes in January. If you fly or travel by ferry from Canada (or anywhere else) to the US you will need a passport to enter the US (USCs and anyone else). After January 2008, you'll need a passport no matter how you enter the country (with a *very* small number of exceptions).
u will get ur certificate right after the oath ceremony before u leave the building.melywely said:So will I recieve my certificate of nautralization at the oath ceremony? or will I have to wait another month for it to come in the mail?

I guess you better come with a stack of paperwork dating all the way back to the very first visa application!AwaySooner said:Well it is a legit question. The form said to bring "Any Immigrations Documents you may have", that's pretty unclear what they are.
