Update on Citizenship

Hey, Now I am an US Citizen! Preparing for the test,little more than a day; the questions were just a basic test on your knowledge on US Civics and history.

However, many things at the USCIS center, left me thinking, that it should be organized better. Like when you are waiting after submitting your documents, there no knowledge how much it will take for your time for interview or when they will call you for Oath Taking ceremony.
While the appointment mentions clearly not to come early, however, it appears more like a first-come, first-served basis. We should have a system of tokens/sign boards, to tell which case is being considered, the expected wait time.

Although, there is no mention about NOT bringing children, however, it various from Officer to Officer. The person who interviewed my wife, was pretty rude and obnoxious; there should be a clear policy on this. If infants and children are not allowed, either these should be communicated in the Appointment letter or they should ensure a Child-care is available.

When I was called for Interview, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the officer who interviewed me, was very friendly. It was altogether a different experience. Anyway, time to celebrate!
