Interview Experience - Las Vegas, NV - Sept 9th 2013

[Adriana Watson 2]

PASSED THE TEST!!!!!!!!!!

The form says:

CONGRATULATIONS! YOUR APPLICATION HAS BEEN RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL. At this time, it appears that you have established your eligibility for naturalization. If final approval is granted, you will be notified when and where to report for the Oath Ceremony.

So this is how is how it went down:

My interview was at the Las Vegas field office at 1:30pm.

Got there at 1:15pm, went through the metal detector, checked in for the interview where they asked for my ID and interview letter, they kept the appointment letter, and they told me to take a seat on the waiting room that they would call me.

Waited for like 10 minutes, and I was called in to a cubicle where they took fingerprints and a picture then sent me back to the waiting room.

I was called in for my interview at 2:10pm.

My IO was a very nice older gentleman, he took me to his office and told me to put my stuff (my purse and file full of evidence) on the chair behind me.

Told me to lift my right hand and "do you swear to tell the truth...." all that stuff, I said yes, told me to sit down and to give him my Nevada ID and my Green Card.

Then he went over my file, that by the way was HUGE! like 2 reams of paper huge, he made the comment "I see you brought more information with you but by the look of your file I don't think we will be needing more information at this time" (hahahaha).

He started going over all of the questions to verify the info and to make sure nothing changed, asked me if I made any more trips outside the US after I submitted the application I said No, then went over the yes or no questions and asked me if I was willing to take the full oath of allegiance and if I knew the meaning, yes, if I was willing to bear arms to defend the US if needed, yes and all of the questions at the end of the application.

Once done we asked me to sign it.

Then said, ok lets start the test! He handed me a pice of paper with 3 small sentences and told me to read 1 of them, I picked the first one that said: "How many Senators do we have" he marked correct and then gave me a pen and a sheet with 3 spaces and told me to write "We have one hundred Senators", marked correct and then went over the following questions:

1) Name of the national anthem,

2) What's the rule of law,

3) What is the ocean to the west of the US,

4) How old do citizens have to be to vote,

5) What happened on 9/11 (I knew they were going to ask that since today is 9/9)

6) Why does the flag has 13 stripes.

That was it! he said 6 out 10, don't need to ask any more... Gave me my approval notice and told me that in the next month or two I would get a notification letting me know of the Oath Ceremony!

Made a copy of my ID and Green Card and didn't ask me for anything else....

I hope this info is of any help.

And also wanted to wish good luck to all of you guys that are still waiting to be done with the interview process.

Have a great day!!!
