I will have to enter the murky waters of postponing my oath ceremony. I have an international trip planned in early May, and I just don't think they will issue a passport in time.

Last post on my status ...
I postponed my Oath Ceremony in April, and actually attended one in July. I am now a US citizen! Woo hoo.
On the same day as my ceremony, I posted my passport application. I paid for expedited processing and overnight delivery. The online status indicates my passport has been posted back to me and should arrive this week. That's just under three weeks total.
