Kane and others,
As posted yesterday, we (myself and my wife) had our interview today. It was essentially the same posted by many members here.
Officer asked me take oath by raising right hand about telling truth. She then asked for Green Card, Passport, and Driver's Licence. Then She went over my application (name, address, date of birth, date when became permanent resident, country of birth, Marital status, employment history, no of children, trips outside US, and most of the "yes/no" answer questions.
I got one traffic ticket for speeding after I applied. Since I have shown my earlier traffic tickets as an attachment, I edited the same and took updated copy with me which I gave it to her. She replaced the old one with new. I told her that I paid fine for each traffic ticket and attented traffic school wherever possible. (She did not ask for actual tickets and proof of payment.)
She then asked me to sign application at 2 places and to write my full name of both photos I submitted with my application. After that she asked me write "I have paid fines for all the traffic tickets." on bottom of application form.
After that she printed 10 questions (all from standard 100 questions list) and asked me to read and answer each question orally. One of them was about the first 13 states. She was impressed when I got all 13 states right.
After that she handed over N-652 (Naturalization Interview Results) form and checked following 2 boxes.
1) You have passed the tests of English and U.S.history and government.
2) Congratulations! Your application has been recommended for approval. At this time, it appears that you have established your eligibility for naturalization. If final approval is granted, you will be notified when and where to report for the Oath ceremony.
She told me that I will receive oath letter in about 3 weeks for the oath in Mid November.
