My appointment was for 2 pm, Reached there at 1:30 pm... There were about 60-70 people in the waiting room...I was called in around 3:00 pm when all that were left was just me and another couple ...Polite and friendly officer, apologized for the delay, said he was running late all day since morning.....Once in his office, before I could take a seat, he swore me to tell the truth. Asked for passport, green card and driving licence. Asked if I had my SSN card, no problem if I dont have it he said since it was not mentioned in my interview letter. I didn't have my SSN card. He was fine with it..My interview letter specifically mentioned to bring proof of Selective Services Registration, I didn't have the letter since I don't need to register and the officer didn't bother to ask as well.
Started going through my application. I had a minor mistake in my name on the N-400 application detailed here http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=302449 He said that's fine no problem, but then no sooner had I said it then at the same time he verified my name from the birth certificate already present in my A-folder with him. Asked if I wanted to do name change, I said no ...Asked which company sponsored my GC and that I was still with them... Not sure if he was asking me or just telling me. Was verifying each and every item from the N-400. For some items he would tell me what I wrote and ask me if it was right.. For other items he would just ask me for the answer and verify it with the N-400. I had saved the copy of my N-400 and had reviewed it before the interview so I pretty much knew what Was in there...Asked when was my last trip outside of US . At this point he opened my passport and started verifying the entry/exit stamps with each and every entry/exit date of the trips mentioned on the N-400. I had about 5 such trips. All my 5 trip were less than 30 days each. At the end of it, he asked to sign the full name in 3 different places on the N-400.... Then he made me print my name on the 2 photographs
Then he printed the history/civics questionnaire and speaking/writing tests. Questions asked
What is one right from the First Amendment
What did declaration of independence do
Name one branch of government
What does the cabinet do
How many years do we elect a senator
If both the President and the Vice President can no longer serve, who becomes President
Read - When is Columbus day
Write - Columbus day is in October
The he said Congratuations you have passed the interview and printed the N-652. Mentioned that this was the easiest case he had done all morning and said the oath letter will be mailed out.
Was out by 3:20 pm. Other couple were still waiting to be called...Wished them good luck and left.
Thanks to everyone on this forum for all the help and good luck to all.
