Failed citizenship interview

[nyoleg 5]

Who knows if I passed the civil questions, reading, writing but did not pass form N400. Next time will they ask me everything or will they ask about form N400?

I would think everything will be asked again.

Did the officer say you failed? Curious what happened?

If you fail the English part or the Civics part you will be retested on the part you failed. Not quite sure what you mean by failing the N-400 form part - if you provide answers to questions about your application that are inconsistent with what you provided on the N-400 form you may run into issues. You should be intimately familiar with all information on that form, and if your English is not good enough to answer questions about it you may need to study a bit more.

the officer gave me a piece of paper that I had passed and that I had not passed. The first question I was asked was"Do you now have, or did you Ever have, a hereditay title or an order of nobility in any foreign country" and I didn't understand this question.

This is simply question 30.a from part 9 of the N-400 form, so you would have already responded to the question when you filed your application. During the interview they will verify your answers to basically all of the "Have you ever" questions, so for your next interview make sure you go over the form you submitted again.

@nyoleg Many libraries and community centers offer "citizenship classes", with mock interviews.  This might be a good idea to be 100% ready.  

From what I see from your post here, your written English seems fine, so I am confident that with preparation, you will do great next time.

Good luck for the next time!

Sounds like they failed you based on not understanding what you answered on the form? You can only fill out the form if you understand what each question means, sometimes the IO will ask you to define certain words or questions off of the form, to make sure that you understand the questions you answered.

Did you fill the N400 form yourself?

What did the N-652 say?
