Had my interview yesterday, Honolulu DO. It mostly consists of going over your entire application question by question, and checking that the answers you give under oath match what is on your application. I was asked some more detailed information which hadn't been mentioned on the application.

The interview ended with the tests of reading, writing and civics, which were quick and painless. (One sentence to read, one sentence to write, and six questions straight from the study booklet. The interviewer stopped at six, since I answered everything correctly)

Interview was set at 7:30 AM.
We were up by 5:30 AM to get ready and prepare the kids.

Hello everybody!!!

Finally my long immigration journey has ended this moning. Oath ceremony took only couple of hours & at the end was given that precious naturalization certificate. Feeling bad to give up that GC but guess in order to get something bigger you have to gve up something !!!!!! Just kidding !!! Man I'm excited. I'm a proud US citizen now. I didn't wait any longer. My US pssport form that I alreay completed last night was turned in right after the oath ceremony at a US post office. Now just have to wait for that passport to arrive at my mail box.

I had a question about the H4 extension for my daughters.

My H1B visa is stamped until 10/05/2009 for my earlier employer A,when my current employer B transferred my H1B the new NOA had a validity date of May 2010.
My daughters have a valid H4 visa until May 2010

When I returned back from a visit to India back to the US the official at the Port of entry stamped our I-94 until the expiry of the H1B visa for Emp A for oct '2009 for the whole family.
