Interview
I just came out of my interview at El Monte. I went there at 1.30 pm since my interview is at 2.00 pm. I went through the normal security check. I and the other interviewees were directed to the 2nd floor. At the second floor, a security officer collected our appointment papers and handed it over to the INS officers. I was called at 2.45 pm.
The INS officer asked for my drivers license and green card. I provided the required documents to her without wasting any time. She then asked me to write a sentence. "I am waiting for the christmas day". Then she asked me the following questions:
What does the stripes represent?
The minimum voting age
What is the first ten amendments called?
What are the 13 original states called?
The rights guaranteed by the 1st amendments
The 2 main political parties
I answered all the questions correctedly. After that, she asked me to verify the information on the N-400 form. I used this opportunity to inform her about my change of address. She updated the change of address and then as me to sign at the oath of allegiance box. She finally issue me N652 - Naturalization interview results which indicates that I passed. She congratulated me and inform me that I will be getting the oath letter in 2 - 3 months time. The process took about 6 minutes. The INS agent is nice and polite. Now I have to wait for the Oath ceremony notification.
Last but not the least, I sincerely wish to thank everyone that offer his or her advice on Citizenship interview preparation. This forum provides a lot of insights and information about the application and interview process. Once again, thanks.
