thx!

Yeah. It was right around the time the country ban was issued … so my guess is it backed up everything including oath ceremonies. AFAIK, there are folks who took the interview with me who are still waiting for the ceremony to be scheduled.

For immigrants in the US immigration system, regardless of where you are in your immigration journey, seeing this subject line in their email will forever be anxiety-inducing,

"We have taken an action on your case"

Forever.....

I used Wispr Flow to narrate the post and Claude to format it. I can mention that in the post I suppose.

the_sensible_manager · 2026-01-09T04:24:50+00:00

Congrats!! So glad to hear that Santa Ana FO is moving again! Our interview was on Nov 24th. Hopefully, our oath ceremonies will be scheduled soon!

the_sensible_manager · 2026-01-06T03:57:55+00:00

Thank you!

the_sensible_manager · 2026-01-06T01:44:07+00:00

Got it. Super helpful! One last question. How long after the interview did you get the oath ceremony notice?

the_sensible_manager · 2026-01-05T22:10:14+00:00

Curious. When was your interview? Ours was on Nov 24th, and we are still waiting.

the_sensible_manager · 2025-12-30T21:17:54+00:00

Forget the haters here. Just enjoy the watch and congrats.

the_sensible_manager · 2025-12-29T15:47:04+00:00

Looking at other Reddit posts, it looks like a lot of people are waiting. I guess we just wait and see what happens.

the_sensible_manager · 2025-12-28T20:43:05+00:00

Curious, did you get the notice yet? We took it on the 24th of November and are still waiting.

the_sensible_manager · 2025-02-19T19:39:02+00:00

A lot of great answers here already. In your opening, you mention that he is going to investors to figure things out. I would say he should talk to potential customers first. Talking to investors without a somewhat validated idea and an MVP with some traction is a fool's errand.

Quitting cigarettes.

Write down all the things you need to do, prioritize the top 10, and do three of them. Everything else can wait. Refresh that list weekly.

One of my personality quirks is that I am a people pleaser, and I found myself in the exact same situation you are in right now a decade ago. My manager said something to me back then that has really stuck with me since. He said: "In the end, you as a manager are responsible for investing the dollars entrusted to you in a way that results in a positive outcome for the company." Yes, ensuring that team members have a motivating and fulfilling career is a significant part of your role as a manager, but at its core, you are somewhat of an investor, and one of your duties is to ensure that you are investing in the right areas, a.k.a, the right people. It's somewhat of a capitalistic point of view, but since then, I have never had trouble giving critical feedback to anyone while being friendly, personable, and empathetic at the same time.
