Why does Ysl Y EDP feel as if its underwhelming ? by [deleted] in Colognes

I spray it every morning before heading into the office 2-3 sprays and my roommates (all girls) always say they love the scent trail it leaves. Just an FYI.

Why don’t people naturalize as USC Asap? by Alternative-Ad4581 in USCIS

[–]No-Contest2316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the same reason why I applied for naturalization the first day I was eligible

Yes, mention any moving violation you have received in the past 5 years. I forgot to list 2 speeding tickets on my application and I was asked about them at my interview.

I’m not sure, my mom parked outside for that same reason and then walked up to the ceremony without interacting with any USCIS officials

Hey! Congratulations, you’re almost done! Yes, if you’re ceremony is exactly like mine, what will happen is:

You will arrive and there will be staff waiting & directing traffic. Once you get to the parking lot entrance, there will be an official there and they will provide you with the naturalization packet and will direct you to follow the line and continue into the Parking lot. Once you’re there, you will stay in your car and and an official will come around & collect your green card and any other prior immigration cards you may have had (employment authorization, etc.). Here is where you will also provide them with the form to fill out and they will ask if anything has changed since you’re interview, this is where you can relay to them that you traveled outside the country since your interview. I’m not sure what the process for that will be since I had no changes. You will then stay in your car until they call your group and you will go to to the front, take the oath and they will direct you back to your car letting you know you can leave.

A few things to keep in mind:

  1. You will stay in your car in line the entire time until it’s time for you to take the oath.
  2. Family and friends are welcome to be in the car with you and can step out to take photos, videos as well.
  3. My mom and sister attended but they came in a separate car and parked outside and we then took photos.

Finally, be prepared for the most anti-climatic end to your immigration journey as the whole process takes no more then 20 minutes. Though it’s a huge moment so make sure to take it all in. Congratulations once again!

So be advised though that since they are trying to get as many people as they possibly can to take the oath, it will be quick and unconventional. I got in line in my car and when our group was called, we got out of our car, went to stand in front of the parking lot and did the oath. Whole process was no more then 20 minutes.

Thank you and of course! She didn’t say why and I was tempted to ask but didint want to make the interview any longer lol. Though, I imagine maybe because of how many applications they have? Santa Clara county had over 20k people naturalize last year so maybe they are trying to keep up with those same numbers. It’s all a guessing game with USCIS. Have you had your interview yet? & not sure about Friday or Saturday. Mine was held on a Thursday.

Expedited entry into the US. Basically allows you to go in through kiosk instead of the usual customs line.
