Question 1, Are they going to ask questions from citizenship application to see if my wife understands English?

Question 2, My wife just realized going over the application that she made a mistake and didn't put that she was a student in the last 5 years. She only put that she worked in the last 5 years. Is this a serious problem, how does she fix it?

Your wife will need to read and write a sentence in English and she will be asked up to 10 questions in English from the Civics examination. The interview will be in English.

Question 2, My wife just realized going over the application that she made a mistake and didn't put that she was a student in the last 5 years. She only put that she worked in the last 5 years. Is this a serious problem, how does she fix it?

She can make the correction at the interview. They will go over the whole application with her and ask her point by point if it is correct - she can say that she made an error and was also a student during the last 5 years and ask them to add it in.

Good luck on the interview. Mine is Thursday too!

1.- Yes , tell wifey to read her application and memorize the questions there. They will ask her to write a sentence in english and the standard civic test, 10 questions she must answer at least 7 right

2.- if she made a mistake she can clarify this with the officer at the time of the interview and explain the mistake and submit proof of her studies, make sure she brings proof of everything, they are very nice and they won't give her a hard time as long as she tells the truth.
