Any ideas anyone? (I don't think she would want a plastic model of the Statue of Liberty somehow...)
NJ, seems to be one of the few places that Interview & Oath Ceremony can be on same day. The other plus with NJ, is lots of people complete the whole deal in 3 -5 months.

Newark is one of the very few that do it the same day. Hope all is well with her security clearance and that she is approved without having to wait for clearance.

For my husband, I had a flag flown over the US Capitol Building in DC and they mailed it to me with a certificate stating where, when and for whom it was flown. I then encased it in a flag shadow box for display. It was the perfect gift. The cost was $25 through my congressional rep.

that sounds right. I have heard it on this board several times before that the Newark office can do test and oath together. Even the office I've been to (Atlanta) does some test and oaths together for some of the interviewees if they are finished early enough in the day.
