nope... my I-75 was approved before I applied for my N-400.

 

I went for my N-400 with my husband but the IO did not allow him to be with me during my interview..

 

and also, I have my schedule for my oath taking.. October 7 at 9:30 am...

 

good luck!

Passed my Citizenship Interview! Given below is my experience

USCIS District: Detroit, MI

Filing Basis: 5 yrs (employment based)

Application Filed: 06/10/2019 (ONLINE)

Biometrics Appointment: 07/01/2019  (early walk in completed on 06/17)

Interview Letter Received: 08/19/2019

Interview Date: 09/23/2019

 

I arrived 45 mins early. Was requested to wait for 15 mins in the waiting area as they only check you in 30 mins prior to your interview time.

After Check In, I was asked to wait in Section 1

Within 5 mins, I was called to the counter where the officer asked me for my passport, driver license and greencard. He then captured my index finger prints and photograph. Asked me if I traveled outside the US since filing the N-400 or if there were any other changes (name change, marriage, divorce, child,  etc).

I was given my documents back and asked to wait in Section 3 for the Test + Interview. Waited for 20 mins before being called in by the Officer

- On entering her office, I was sworn in

-Then came the English & civics test. Questions asked:

(1) Before Eisenhower was president, in which war was he a general?

(2) What was one of the reasons for the civil war?

(3) When do we celebrate Independence day?

(4) What ocean in on the west coast?

(5) What is one promise you make when becoming a US citizen?

(6) What is one responsibility only for US citizens?

 

I was asked to read: “what do we pay the government” and write “we pay taxes”.

She smiled and said I did well and we could now discuss the application form.

At this point, I mentioned that I had 3 corrections to make and we went over them.

She then asked me for my full name, date of birth, date I became a permanent resident, my employer’s name, and home address.

She then went over EVERY Yes & No question from Part 12 and also asked the below

- If I had paid all my traffic citations (I had a total of 6 traffic citations, of which 3 were from the last 5 years)

- If I paid all my federal, state and local taxes

- Name all countries that I have visited over the last five years (I travel a lot for work)

- If I had registered with Selective Service (I was a non-immigrant on F1 / H1 till my mid 30’s. However, I received the SS notice when I was 25 and I voluntarily registered as there was no harm in doing so). I showed her the letter and she added the SS Number and Date to the form.

I was then asked to sign the changes I had requested and view the information that would be printed on my naturalization certificate.

She told me she would recommend my application for approval. I was given a printed notice that I passed the interview. Next morning I received the system notification of approval & currently waiting for my oath letter + date.

 

DOCUMENTS I TOOK WITH ME

The interview notice mentioned my passport, green card, selective service evidence (if any)

I took the following additional documents but was never asked for them at the interview:

1.       2 Old / Expired passports

2.       Last 5 years tax transcripts (it’s free and easy to get online from the IRS website)

3.       Last three traffic citations with proof of payment

4.       Certified Driving Record (I highly encourage this if you have had citations in the last 5 yrs). You can obtain this at the BMV (or online)

5.       Selective Service Registration Letter

6.       2 passport size photos (as I would eventually need them for a US passport).

7.       Last Month’s paystub (proof of residence)

8.       My application snapshot from the website
