N-400 Interview - Jacksonville, FL
 
I spent the night in Jacksonville - the interview was at 10:15 a.m. and I did not want to deal with traffic, (possibly) deer, construction or the stress of trying to get there on time.
 
I wore a navy blue suit (blazer and pants) with a white shirt, and a pair of ankle boots. I nixed the belt - did not want to take one off during the security check.
 
After breakfast, I made my way to the USCIS Office and was at the parking lot a little after 9:00 a.m.  I sat in my car and went over the civics questions one more time and then I went in a little after 9:30.  There was a line already, and the couple in front of me had a bunch of items that they were not allowed to bring inside - for example, they had three small children with them and at least two needed to be bottle fed - so they were not allowed to bring in the infant formula in powder form - they could mix it with the water and bring in the bottles with the formula ready for the kids to drink, otherwise it all had to be returned to the car.  The guy had one of those fancy backpacks that allow you to charge your device inside it - the security folks told him he needed to take it back to the car.
 
Once they were finally let through, the security guard stopped me for a second to address the folks behind me and remind them that if they had anything sharp, or anything with cables (like earbuds), or spray bottles (other than an inhaler for folks with asthma), then they have to take those items back to their car.
 
I went in without a hitch.  Had my phone this time, which I put on silent - phones and tablets were allowed in the building as long as they were on silent and/or vibrate.
 
I went to the front desk to check in - was asked for my appointment letter and a form of ID.  Showed him my passport.  After looking at the screen, he told me that since my appointment was for 10:15 I needed to check in around 10:00 a.m.  Sat in the waiting room, shared updates with my husband and my co-workers.  As 10 was starting to roll around, folks were lining up at the desk.  So I made my way up there again.  The man did not ask for my ID anymore, he just printed out my ticket and asked me to take a seat and wait for my number to be called.
 
I sat in the waiting room again - some folks ahead of me were called in - and some folks who were behind me were called in.  I didn't really mind, I figured the officer was in another appointment.
 
A gentleman walked to the door and called my last name but my first name did not sound correct lol  I walked up anyhow, and as we were walking to the door that led to his office, I clarified what my first name was.  He asked how I was, I said I was great - and he mentioned that he was kind of surprised to hear that - most people say they are nervous or something.  We chatted for a bit, I mentioned I had spent the night in Jacksonville for the reasons I mentioned above.  He asked me to take a seat and said he needed to take my picture and scan my left and right index fingers.
 
He introduced himself - the last name is heard was Molinaro.
 
He had asked me for my green card and I explained that it was stolen with my purse a while back, so I had applied for a new one, showed him the I-90 NOA.  There was no declaration on my file, so he had to pull out a paper form, which he filled out with my information (name and A-number) and he explained to me that I must understand if I ever found the green card that it had to be returned to USCIS.  I said yes and he had me sign the form. (I did make an offhand remark that I doubt I would ever see it again lol)
 
He started looking at the screen and then he asked me about my speeding ticket, and if I had documentation to show it was adjudicated - I mentioned the fine was less than $300 and I had opted to go for Basic Driver Improvement school.  I had the paperwork anyhow and showed it to him - he said I could keep it after he read through it.
 
He asked me if I had made any trips outside the US in the last 5 years - I said no, the last time I was out of the country was 2012, and it was only for 6 days.  I showed him both my old and new passports - which showed the stamps and my old visa (K3).
 
Then it was on to the tests.  He gave me the English test first.  I was handed a piece of paper with 3 sentences in it and he asked me to read the first one: Who elects Congress?
 
Then he marked that as correct, and gave me another sheet with blank lines and asked me to write: The people elect Congress.
 
He marked that correct, and asked me if I knew about the history test, I said yes.  So he asked me the following questions:
Who wrote the Declaration of Independence? My answer: Thomas Jefferson Name one state that borders Mexico. My answer: California There were 13 original states. Name three. My answers: North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia Who is the Commander in Chief of the military? My answer: The President What is the political party of the President now? My answer: Republican Party What are the two major political parties in the United States? My answer: Democratic and Republican  
From there we went over my application.  In our chat earlier, I had mentioned I just started a new job so we jumped to that portion and he updated my employment information - I gave the start date, name, address and job title of my new (full time) job, and the end date of my last full time job.  I mentioned I had a typo on my previous employers phone number - I had put in the first three digits of my part time job and the last four of my full time job - and told him if they ever called that it would have been bogus.
 
He then proceeded to say that there were some strange questions he needed to ask me.  Basically all the questions from page 11 to 16 on the application form.  I said no where applicable - and because I had said yes to being cited, we went back to the speeding ticket.
 
After a few more minutes, he asked me to look at the tablet in front of me and asked me to check if the information was complete and correct.  I went and signed it.
 
Another screen appeared and it was items 45 to 50 on the form - I signed that as well.
 
Next he handed me the N-652 and I saw where it was marked that I had passed the English and Civics test - and that I was recommended for approval!
 
So he told me to wait for a letter about the oath taking ceremony - and I mentioned I knew there was going to be one in town next week - he looked at me and said that ceremony is fully booked.  
My heart kind of skipped a beat...that meant I could possibly be on the roster for the 4th of July ceremony, which is a big to-do here where I live.  Could not have been happier about the timing!  
 
He congratulated me and as we were walking out the door, he mentioned he was happy that I decided to wear a suit for the interview.  I asked why.  He said a lot of people have been coming in for their interview dressed down, like they were getting ready to go to the beach and he was in the way of their beach time.  The only other things (and I cannot remember when he said this) were: 1) he mentioned that he could see I had a serious side and a great sense of humor, and that I had a positive demeanor; and 2) he mentioned that you (I) should feel good about this accomplishment, you have worked hard (he looked at the screen), and I see you are still working two jobs.  I told him that someday my goal was to have just one job.
 
Now I suppose it is not quite the end of my journey yet...looking forward to the ceremony!
 
Best of luck to everyone  
 
 
 

Recommended for approval 😁 Am on a tablet right now. More details to follow once I am behind a desktop!

I also had my interview today. It was scheduled at 7:30 AM. I came there at 7:15 AM and was called by IO at 7:45 AM. The interview was only 20 min, very easy and simple. The only documents I was asked are GC, DL and passport.
I was asked to swear, then IO started civics test:
What did the Declaration of Independence do?
Name one branch or part of the government.
We elect a U.S. Senator for how many years?
If both the President and the Vice President can no longer serve, who becomes President?
What does the President’s Cabinet do?
How many justices are on the Supreme Court?
Then I was asked to read aloud one sentence (don't remember which one) and write down one sentence (Columbus Day is in October).
Then IO asked me all questions from the application that you need to answer only Yes or No. No other questions from the application were asked.
Then IO checked herself all travel dates (using info from my passport) and asked for a reason of my travels (to see my family at my home country and tourism for other countries).
When I e-signed my application. IO said "Congratulation!", gave me a paper with a checkmark on "Congratulation" box and I left the interview room.
Now my status is the following;

Here is my interview experience:
 
My interview was schedule for 12:10pm, I checked in at 11:40 and I sat down at the waiting area with my husband.
A female officer called me by my name at around 12:30pm... I was very nervous because this was a very special occasion for me, my hands where shaking, but I was confident of myself and didnt show it.
I went to her office and she asked me to sit down... She took my photo and my fingerprints and asked me for my complete name and day of birth.
She was very nice but had not personality at all, didnt even crack a smile lol.
Ok, she asked me to stand up and swear I will say the truth, I did.
She asked me for my name again and how to spell it, and my date of birth again, she did it several times during the interview.
Then she had my file, a huge, but Hugeee folder with all my documentation from way back when my husband petitioned me as a wife with the I-130 in 2010, wow, I was so impressed!
Then she asked me why did I applied under the 3 year rule through marriage if I have been here over 5 years, I told her I thought that was the way to do it since thats how I got to be a Resident in the first place, I didnt know I could apply on my own. So she suggested to change my application under the 5 years rule, so I said Yes.
Then she start asking my about my trips to Colombia and my last trip to Chile where I stayed 2 months visiting my sister. Then she asked me where did I go June 2013, I told her I didnt go anywhere during that period of time, so she told me: Yes, thats what it says here, I told her: No maam, I never when out of the country in June 2013, then She said: Yes, maybe you went to Mexico and came back, I told her I have never been to Mexico in my life, then She said: Ok, very Good. (Whats?? lol)
Then  she asked me about my children, my daughter who is a Permanent Resident and my 3 US Citizens sons, their birthdays and names.
She asked me about my husband, what State was he born in and what he does for a living since I dont work, etc.
After this she astarted to ask me about the no no no and yes questions, If I ever committed a crime, etc and if I support the Constitution.
 
Then she said: Ok, lets start with the test...
She gave me a paper and asked me to read aloud: The people elect Congress...
She gave me a paper and asked my to write: The people elect Congress.... She looked at it and asked me to take off the "s" since I wrote "elects" with a S... I did it and she said: Very Good.
Then she pulled out a page and I noticed she had the 10 questions she was going to asked me already printed in that paper... She asked me:
Who wrote the Declaration of Independence.
What are the two major Political Parties in the US.
To what Political Party does the president belong.
Mention a State that borders Mexico.
Mention 3 States of the Original 13 Colonies.
(I cant remember the last question)
Every answer I gave her, she wrote it down in the paper under each question.
After that she asked me to sign in the screen 2 times and thats it! She Congratulated me and gave me a paper saying I passed, she also asked me to take my green card and my conditional green card to the Oath.
I had with me the hard copies of every single document I submitted online, but she only asked me for my green card and driver licence. 
The interview itself took aprox 30 min, because there were periods of times where she was typing in her computer and looking at papers from my file.
 
I am so Happy!
I studied day and night, I knew all the questions by memory because insted of music I was listening to the questions in random order from youtube videos all the time.
Also my husband and 11 years old daughter helped me alot asking me the questions.
The funniest part was when I called my daughter to tell her I passed the test... She start screaming and screaming and telling my mother in law: "Grandmaaaaa, my mom Passed!!!" LOL she almost passed out thinking something happened to me.
Ok, so this is my interview experience, I hope it helps anybody, at least knowing that it is not that bad, if you study it should be easy.
Thank you so much.
Now I am just waiting to know my interview date, my account on uscis shows my oath was scheadule, hopefully the document will load tomorrow or next day.
Thank you for reading!

Yes @ALY LEYVA that's the status you'll have until they'll schedule your interview.
Regarding time frame, that depends on your local office.
