I became a US citizen
Hello Folks,
YES YES YES!! It's done!! Eventually, I become a US citizen yesterday 07/17. My ceremony was scheduled at 9:30 AM and I was there around 8:30 just be incasing if something happens on the way. I got a nice parking spot just next to the USCIS precinct. I was waiting in the car since they won't let me get in before 9:00 am and the parking is for 2 hours which was and will be sufficient for you guys too. I had a MeterUp parking app and it was so convenience to start my parking time. Anyway everyone was greetings since they know the reason for the visit. They really make you so comfortable and relax. We were 15 people (most probably 15 or 12 different nations). We were waiting in the waiting room and then an officer scot us to the oath ceremony room.
Now I like to mention something here, it was a very stressful day instead of happiness I was so nervous and scared of something. You see I had a stupid traffic citation which I got in Maryland on the way to Washington. It was a speeding ticket captured by the camera. The fine was only 40 bucks and I was thinking not to disclose it. But the night before after many hours of consideration and thought I eventually decided to disclose and answer question number 4 with "YES" honesty is the best policy. And an African American officer leads us to the oath ceremony hall and at the door asking some questions regarding COVID-19 if we were infected or family members were exposed to the coronavirus or went to any party or join any big gatherings etc. and then he asks to show the N-445 ... here goes my nerve... I was so nervous and ready to show my confirmation of payment but then he just showed me the lady who was sitting beside the table where were our citizenship certificates and a box where we drop our green cards. I didn't say or talk about my citation and praying that soon it will over. We check our name and DOB and the took a sit where were a flag and oath of allegiance and a US constitution. The judge appeared on a big TV screen and then that African American officer calls us by our country name and had to stand before the judge and then the same officer represents us to judge and request to conduct the oath. The judge was reciting the oath of allegiance and that's it we took some pictures no guest was allowed so we helped each other to take a picture. I went in 9:00 oath was scheduled 9:30 am and I was out around 10:00 am
So that N-455 they don't give much attention unless something really big.
