The officer called my name at 11 am. Then he asked me to provide my green card. he escorted me to his office and introduced me to another person that will be observing my interview beside him.
The officer said he will be looking at the computer most of the time, and he will start with the civic questions;
what is the land of law mean? what is the name of the national anthem? what ocean on the west? what happened on 09/11? how old you have to be to vote for the president? then he asked me to read who can vote? and to write citizens can vote.
Then he moved through the application and asked about all my previous residence, starting with the recent one. Then, he asked me about my current work address. I was confused with the number of streets, I asked him if I can look it up on my application, he said yes. I gave it to him. He asked all the questions on the application of n 400. 
Have you ever been cited by an officer, I said no, but traffic ticket then I mentioned whatever I could remember on the traffic ticket:
Fail to stop sign I paid 125$. 
Over speed limit on a 25mph road, I was driving 40 mph .paid it of 75$, and parking ticket which I paid 7 $.
 One of the questions was ((Have you ever married more than one at the same time)). I answered yes. I explained that my marriage to us citizen in 2010, I left the USA a few months later in 2010 I was on f1 visa at that time and I divorced her after becoming permanent resident on 2012 and the  ((overseas )) marriage on 2011after the embassy interview  was as khutbah(to know more about the girl only traditionally, you have to enter a marriage contract, but I didn't sleep with her) and I divorced her after few months 2011 before immigrated to the USA.
Then the officer went through the rest of the applications and at the end he made me read the changs and rushed me to sign the application on the tablet , I informed him that the statement on the tablet having some wrong spelling he said that will not affect the application and the explanation of the question" have u ever married more than one at the time" was under different question ((Have you been drunk  question )) he said that is the only space they can write the statement under and it will not affect the situation and they will know it was under the original question. He informed me to sign it and he made me sign the oath statement. Then the other officer  asked me a few questions in regards to previous marriages:
was their contract marriage to one in overseas, I said yes, but again as khutbah, where to know more about the girl and didn't sleep with her and the divorce documents stated that.
He asked me, The((us wife)) was in a relationship during the marriage, I said I don't know, then he said there was a baby born out wedlock on the divorce paper. I said I didn't know of that tell later on. The other officer made a copy of my overseas divorce. he said, decision cant be made at this time and he said there is a possibility of polygamy and they will let me know 4 -6 weeks of the decision and he said they don't know about khutbah?
I said no problem .you have a good day.
Thanks.
Done.
The whole thing took an hour because he was writing a lot.

That is a complicated story, please keep us updated.

You are going to get your whole immigration file thoroughly reviewed. Children born outside the marriage, married another woman (traditional marriage) while married, divorced US citizen immediately after becoming a permanent resident etc.

 

I wish you luck.

I have a traffic ticket too and wondering should I answer no to the question have you ever been cited? 

The traffic ticket is the least of your worries. Do not worry about that. I had similar traffic citation issues during my naturalization. Was not a problem.

DV Lottery?

 

That should simplify one of the issues.

Polygamy being illegal in the US....

I'm not sure what khutbah is (googling it only brings up a definition as a Muslim sermon, nothing related to marriage) but if it counts as a marriage, you'll probably encounter some problems. It seems you yourself view it as marriage, as you answered YES to the have you ever been married to more than one person at the same time...

U said in ur statement under oath and signed oit was ur statement under oath that u were married and divorced before immigrating in 2011 before u got gc in 2012. They are looking at if u were eligible for DV Lottery being married.

I highly doubt that being a problem. DV isn't only for single people. Spouses and minor children are derivatives. OP married a USC in 2010 and divorced her in 2012. He also apparently conducted another marriage with another woman in 2011 and also divorced this second wife in 2011. He was married to two people at the same time...

He was khutbah when he was married to US citizen in 2011. That fact explains the mess.
