Hi All!   Wife has her Citizenship interview in two days,  going for that 4 hr drive tomorrow to be there on time.   Anyways, she heard that sometimes both husband and spouse can be interviewed separately.

I am the Husband, born in the US,, she is the Immigrant.  I think that perhaps they may do that "if" they have a reason to suspect fraud or something along those lines.   Due to the fact,  she is making me

dress up! LOL...    Anyone (citizen spouse) have to be interviewed or questioned during your spouses Citizenship interview?

 

As a side note, she's been studying since we filed so I know a whole lot more that I had forgotten about Civics.

Only seen spouses interviewed when it is a dual interview .. for ROC first .. spouse present for ROC interview but then required to leave the interview room when the IO starts the N400 interview

Agree.  Except that my wife's IO gave me the option to stay during her N-400 interview.  My wife asked me to leave...LOL!!!!!!

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

Update:  Wife passed with flying colors!  On to the Oath Ceremony  Feb 10th.  Then for the Passport. And any "i" to dot and "T"'s to cross.
