Naturalization process and fingerprinting
Hi guys... Thank you very much for this form.
I have applied for Naturalization about two weeks ago and received a recepit indicating that the USCIS has received my application. I was worried, because I have not attached the copy of my green card. I called the Customer Service Department and they told me that, if they are able to varify your identity, then they might not need to ask for additional request.
Anyways, after ONLY TWO weeks of sending my documentation for N-400, today I have received request for Fingerprint. Next week I am going for a finger printing... I am exited.. I hope that after fingerprinting, the invitation for interview will come soon...
Best of luck to everybody...

citizenship interview in dallas went very well
Hello Everyone.
i just thought i should let you know that yesterday was my interview which went very smooth. I had filed last year in june and had my fingerprinting is jan 2008.
I must tell you that the place is very organised and not a problem at all. Ofcourse I beleive that if you have all your paperwork with you then it should be a smooth sail.
Ok My interview was at 12.30pm and I reached 45min early and they check ur appointmtent time and let u in. no food and drink allowed.
Then around 12.45 my name was called she smiled and we wished each other and i was taken to a room.
She made take oath and very sweetly she asked me how is the wheather? hmmm anyways I started telling her about the wheather and then she asked me few questions regarding no drugs..no jail stuff like that my answer to all those questions were "no".
she wanted to see my greencard, driver's license and she said if i had my ssn card which i had carried. I think no harm will come if you carry all ur papers.
Then she wanted to check whether I am still married and then she asked me wheather i have taken any recent trips which I had taken so she wanted the dates which I gave her.and she asked how was the trip. I replied that it was very nice and relaxing and we talked a little about the place i visited
she asked how log we have been married and wanted to see papers with our names together-- Here i want to mention-Please if you are applying for cititzenship based on family ie thru husband or wife then please keep all ur paperwork where ur names are together like bills, lease papers, bank statements, taxes stuff like that were ur names are shown together.
Then she asked me 10 civic question from those 100 q/a book which they give you at fingerprinting
Q1-how many stipes?-13
Q2-what color? red/white
Q3-what is congress? house of rep and senate.
Q4.how many senate?-100
q5-why 100? 2 from each state.
she said good.
Q6-Who is the gov of ur state?Rick perry. She said she was impressed and made me write 'i want to be a united states citizen' and made me read 'i am a good cook'( I was smiling and thinking ofcourse i am). she then asked me are u a good cook and i said ofourse.
Then she asked me question like traffic tickets and any criminal activities and i guess these are routine questions. I said no to all and she said I am role model citizen since I did not have any tickets or fines. She then made me check the last page and asked me to verify the address and name and ssn and stuff like that and then she said i am approved and she gave me oath ceremony day and time.
please make sure u have ur pictures taken before u reach there and if not then there is a photo studio right accross the building.They might ask for the pict if they don't approve of the ones which u had sent when u had filed.I was not asked.
So all the best to everyone

Successfully completed citizenship interview/oath
Well, me and my wife just got citizenzip certificate. Though I did not have any issue with getting citizenship, I felt the process at INS is very Chaotic. Probably they are rushing too many people at the same time becuase of elections.
My details:
Receipt date: August 2007
FP: Dec 2007 (not very sure, but around that itme)
Interview : August 23 2008
Oath : August 29 2008
I was forced to go to interview with my both kids (I do not have an option, becuase mine is in the after noon, exepcted wife to be back from her interview [she had in the morning] before I go in, but due to chaotic INS process she got stuck while mine was done 30 min even whent in with my two kids)
But INS allows you to take kids with you.
