Hey y'all!! 

Had my interview this morning and passed. Oath is later today at 2pm. Overall the interview was not bad. The officer did not smile at all during the process and kept the conversation strictly business. Appt was scheduled for 10:45am waited only a few mins before getting called in. Did the swear and he jumped right into it. We started with reading and writing then civic test. He went through the application process. When he got to the tax question, I told him we owed tax and had a payment plan. He asked for a copy of the payment plan (thankfully I had it with me). I also told him about our PCS move and he asked for a copy of my husband's orders. Because of that he told me I could do the Oath today. I was so happy to hear that because my flight is tomorrow lol. So I'm sitting in my car downtown killing time before going bk in for the Oath ceremony. I have two hours of waiting but it's pointless to go home and come bk.

Quick update! My oath ceremony got reschedule yesterday because they had printer issues and was unable to print a few of us certificate. So I was rescheduled for Feb 11th. Unfortunately I will have to fly back for it, but that's OK!

If people pass their interview, will they give printed oath ceremony paper on the spot for different place?. I know my oath ceremony does not happen where I will attend my interview. I am really cutting close where only once in two month’s ceremony getting conducted. @OldUser

Thank you!! I believe the questions asked were:

1. What are two rights in the Declaration of Independence?

2. What is the capital of your state? 

3. The House of Representatives has how many voting members?

4. What does the President’s Cabinet do?

5. Name one promise you make when you become a U.s.citizen?

6. Who was the first president? 

 

NOT IN THIS ORDER!

Hello Everybody it’s me again.

You all sharing about the interview/tests and all. What about documents? Did they ask any proof to submit? For me nothing has changed document wise since the submission. Which is why I am asking. Do we have to carry same documents we uploaded. TIA

If you filed under 3 year rule, I'm pretty sure you accumulated more bank statements, bills, other things since you filed N-400? If you haven't submitted tax return transcripts, make sure to bring those.

 

I filed under 5 year rule. Even though not strictly required, I'll bring all evidence of bonafide marriage I have including new stuff that I accumulated since I-751 got approved. I'm also planning bringing all ID cards etc issued by USCIS as well as all passports including expired ones I have.

 

I wouldn't walk into the interview empty handed. It sometimes creates a bad impression and causes more questions and grilling.

 

In other words, I'm bringing everything to help proving my entire immigration history if asked.

 

Good luck!

I filed under the three year rule, even though I've had my GC for 6 years. At the time I didn't realize I could have done the 5 year rule!! Anyways, we owed taxes and had a payment arrangement so he asked me for that document and made a copy of it. The only other document I showed was divorce papers from previous marriage and that was to confirm dates aligned. I brought with me all documents submitted online but he never asked for any of that. Not even tax transcripts from last 3 yrs. 

 

I recommend taking all documents submitted with you because you never know what they're going to ask for!

I have been registered with the Selective Service System since July 1, 2019 but when asked during interview I said I am not registered. I had no idea Selective Service registration happens automatically after getting green card.

I have been given an RFE to provide evidence for SSS

Since registering for SSS in 2019, I have moved twice. Unfortunately, I did not update my address after my first move, when I was 25 years and 11 months old and still under the age of 26.

Afterward, I moved again in April 2024, but by this time, I was over the age of 26. 

This is what SSS website states 

If you’re a young man, age 18 through 25, the law requires you to notify the Selective Service System of an address change within 10 days, up until January 1st of the year you turn 26 years old. Men are no longer required to notify Selective Service of address changes once they are 26 years old or older.

 

Since my SSS card has my 1st address when I got registered, do you think it will cause problems because I did not report change of address to SSS?
