Wife's Baltimore field office N400 interview experience

[bashray 24]

My wife had her citizenship interview today at Baltimore field office. We arrived 30 minutes before the interview time. She went in the building 15 minutes before the interview time.

 

It was straight forward, she is now waiting for judicial oath ceremony as she wanted to change her name by adding her maiden name as middle name.

 

Officer was pleasant, since my wife is tax professional he started chit chatting with her about tax and her company (he used to be a tax accountant himself)

 

She was asked the following six questions:

• Senator names
• States bordering Mexico
• What is capital of USA
• Year of writing of declaration of independence
• How many senators in senate
• Where is statue of liberty

After that she was ask to read "what is the capital of USA" she wrote the answer on iPad

Then officer just went quickly through her application (yes and no) questions. She brought with her our child birth certificate, marriage certificate, passports and green card. No documents were asked by the officer. She will be providing her GC to judge during judicial oath ceremony and name change.

 

I will be going for my interview next week. Will provide my experience after it.

 

Also Baltimore office is doing same day oath ceremony.

 

Hope this help.
