I had my citizenship interview this morning at 8:30 AM in Columbus DO. I arrived there around 8:00 AM and was called in around 8:15 AM by officer Pham. She seemed to be of Vietnamese origin and spoke with an accent. She asked for my Passport and Green card only and quickly went over the application. She asked 6 questions ( I got all of them right) and asked me to write "Today I am going to the store". and read "I drive a blue car".

Someone on this forum had a question about signature on N-400. I did not sign my full name when I sent my application. She told me not to sign that way and sign my full name below and also on the photos. So the initial signature was not an issue. I had applied under 3 years rule and she asked me where is my wife this morning and where does she work. At the end she gave form N-652 that I have passed the test and my application has been recommended for approval and I will ge the oath letter in mail. Interview lasted between 10 and 15 minutes
