US CIS Local Office ReviewsTimeline Comments: 2Congratulations on becoming a US citizen. I am in the same situation and still waiting.
Could you please tell me if you went with your spouse to interview?
What questions were asked for the i-751 part of the interview?
I went with my spouse, and thankfully I did because they asked me to sit in on the interview even though it wasn’t mentioned on the interview notice. They had very few questions for me/regarding the I-751, just are we married, did we have any evidence/originals that we brought with us, did we have any children, was our address still current, etc. But I would prepare for both interviews. Most of the interview was spent on the civics questions and naturalization portion but they reverted back to the I-751 afterwards when asking for updated documents. I brought with us tax transcripts for the three years since filing for removal of conditions (we filed before sumitting 2016 taxes in February 2017, so this included the 2015, 2016 and 2017 tax years) a copy of our new car title with both of our names, and a few other bits and pieces. I unfortunately brought the wrong photos (they were the leftover originals that didn’t have us in a photo together) so she didn’t include that. He needed to explain what the oath of allegiance meant to him which was a bit hard, but she let him re-read it first. It was a pretty easy interview overall.
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
