Timeline

I applied for my N400 on January 14th (Based on marriage to a US citizen after 3 years). I went for my biometrics on February 8th and received my letter for an interview a week later for Tuesday, March 23rd-today! My interview was scheduled for 3.30pm. I got there at 3.05pm and was called in at 3.25pm.

The rep asked me to lift up my right hand and promise to tell the truth. He asked for my passport and green card. He then asked me some general questions which were on the N400 application like: Have you ever claimed to be a US Citizen? Have you ever registered to vote? Have you ever failed to file a Tax return etc.

Then he verified my address and phone numbers and also mentioned that since we got married, my husband and I have a child together in which I answered yes.

He then asked these questions:

1. If both the president and the vice president can no longer serve, who becomes president?

2. What does the president's cabinet do?

3. How many justices are on the supreme court?

4. We elect a US senator for how many years?

5. Name one branch of the government?

6. When do we celebrate independence day?

He then asked me to read "When is Columbus day?" and then asked me to write "Columbus day is in October"

He said congratulations and told me the next oath ceremony was this Friday and they will see if they can get me in for the ceremony. He said if there is no space left, I will be sent a letter to schedule me for the next one.

The interview took probably 10 minutes. He also handed a form (N-652-Naturalization Interview Results) to prove that I passed the interview and returned my passport and greencard.

Hope this helps for those who have upcoming interviews.
