Do you know if that picture they took will be used on the certificate?

They also only asked for Green Card, Passport and Driver License. 

Most probably they ll use that picture on certificate….

They asked me the same and my IO also took my appointment letter and mark my address with red pen and confirm the address is current…. From my passport he wrote down my passport number on the same paper and at the end attach that paper with my recommendation paper and attached in that big file

Don’t know much but I’m leaning more to the 100 on their website. Maybe @OldUsercan chip in here?

I haven't studied the questions yet, but I'd study what's on USCIS website. I'm sure there are websites / apps giving you more user friendly expeirence, but I haven't used them.

It’s 100 questions from version 2008…. I would highly recommend the app named citizen now …. It got flash cards for 100 questions plus reading n writing questions and it’s pretty easy to study n remember the questions with flash cards

I printed out the official 100 questions.  Wife rewrote them by hand, and studied those....beginning 2 or 3 weeks before the interview.  Along the way, she and I did a few verbal practice sessions.

@Visitor User I honestly don’t understand your obsession with PICTURES here. I think you should be happy that you’re at the end of the process with USCIS and start focusing on as a citizen now.
