English Interview For Citizenship

[Dallas Steve 0]

Can someone who has been through the process recently tell me what is the English "test" like in the US Citizenship interview? My wife wants to become a citizen and her English is still weak. How will she be tested and how much does she need to know to pass? Thanks, Steve.

She needs to study up on http://www.uscis.gov/citizenship/learners/study-test/study-materials-english-test

Thanks Jason. We'll get to work on studying those. Most of the words on the cards are pretty simple. I think she already knows most of them, but we will drill them together until she's automatic with them.

The English test itself is pretty easy, what's more difficult is that during the interview the IO will go through the application and ask questions about it. You need to be able to speak and understand English, as well as know what you submitted in the application pretty well to pass, as long as that's the case I wouldn't worry too much about the English test

By the way, my English test was reading a sentence 'Who lives in a White House' and then writing a response 'The President lives in the White House'
