the oath of citizenship ceremony - passport retention

[jemma]

Hi!

I'm scheduled to take the Oath of Citizenship in a few weeks and noticed that I must bring my (American) passport with me. Am I correct in assuming that I will leave the ceremony with my passport? In other words, officials don't take my passport for some reason, do they?!

No, they don't take your passport.
