    I passed my Interview today.

    @ Reglasses, LaneandDaisy, Muuuuah, Tick Tock, yuenashleysl, Jolibee 76, and Jasminelily ---> 18970.gif

    @ LaneandDaisy ---> you can find the 100 questions from the USCIS site as what Tick Tock have shared. In my case, they (USCIS-Sacramento) gave me a book reviewer with CD when I had my biometrics. You can apply for citizenship (if based on marriage): add 3 years (less 90 days) from the date of your green card.

    I passed my Interview today.

    Left the house at 7am with husband and arrived around 9:15am in Sacramento. There's a long line outside the building, so I waited until about 9:30 to go in (since their appointment letter mentioned to arrived not sooner than 30 minutes before your appointment time). Went through the x-ray machine, then to the second floor (2-200) and there were several people waiting, some with their attorneys (suits and all). I placed my appointment letter in the window box (that was around 9:40am). There are people who arrived after me and got called earlier, I figured their appointment time must be early but they just arrived late, and so i just patiently waited for my turn. Then there's this guy who just arrived (past 10am) and placed his letter in the window box and after 1-2 minutes was called in, then another guy butt-in (pardon the words) and asked the IO, "we were here since (not sure what time) and he got called in?". The IO asked him: "what time is your appointment?" and he answered: "9:30am". Then he was asked to wait and they will looked into it, meanwhile the guy that was called went in to the room. After 5 minutes, they called the other guy- well, actually it's his wife who is for interview, and when she approached the IO, she said: "finally". Her interview took a lot longer than others, maybe the IO is getting even with them?

    10:40am, I was called in. My IO's name is Gloria and she was very nice and polite. She told me sorry for the delay and I said: "that's OK". While we are walking to her room/cubicle, she's already asking me if I still live in the same address and I said "Yes, in Cottonwood", and she asked where that is, and I replied: "near Redding" about 2 hours drive from here, and she said: " then you must have woke up early to get here, at least it was not like 4 hours drive."

    In her room/cubicle and asked me to remain standing, asked me to raise my right hand and swear to tell the truth, etc... and I said yes then I was asked to take a seat. She went through my (thick) files, and went over my N-400 Application form, went through all the questions (one by one) and checking each numbers with a red ink pen. What's your husband's name and date of marriage, date of birth and when I said his birthday is on the 9th, she said "that's close, do you have a gift?" and I replied: "No, not yet, don't have time to buy, but I will.", she smiled.

    Then she asked me if I studied the 100 questions and I said yes. She also asked if I studied alone or if my husband helped me. I told her, my husband helped me and I that I also asked my husband those questions and that he cannot answer all. She laughed and told me that is fine because she, herself, cannot memorize all the answers to the 100 questions.

    The questions asked:

    1. What is freedom of religion?

    2. How many senators are there?

    3. What ocean is in the East Coast?

    4. Name one state that boarders Canada?

    5. When was the Constitution written?

    6. What is the supreme law of the land?

    Then she asked me to read a phrase: "What we pay..."

    Then asked me to write: We pay taxes.

    Then she wrote 6 and congratulated me. Took a piece of paper (N-652- Naturalization Interview Result) and gave it to me then she went through the N-400 forms again and remembered my 2009 ITR and gave her a copy. I was not able to send in my 2009 ITR with my application because I submitted my application early (February) and all the paperworks are with our CPa, but I did sent a copies of our W-2 forms (mine and my husbands). She told me the oath taking will be on the 17th @ 8:30am and advicved me there's no parking area at that place and I should parked far and just walked and in that way I will not get stucked with the other people attending the oath taking. She said they schedule 800 people for the oath taking. She asked me to sign the forms, and write my full name on the picture ID's. Then we went to this other room and she asked the man there to do this one before he went to lunch. She asked me to wait at the waiting area and she said, congratulations again, and I said Thank you and have a great day.

    After less than 5 minutes, the guy called me and gave me Form N-445 (Notice of Naturalization Oath Ceremony) and explained the procedures, what to bring and the map/location.

    And that's my interview experience. ;):yes: Thanks to VJ members for all the advices since I started my journey (CR-1), it's a big help.

    biomatric rescheduled now what happens

    in US Citizenship General Discussion

    Posted

    On my BIOMETRICS APPOINTMENT LETTER--> It was written: "PLEASE APPEAR AT THE BELOW APPLICATION SUPPPORT CENTER AT THE APPOINTED DATE AND TIME TO HAVE YOUR FINGERPRINTS TAKEN. If you are unable to appear at this time, you may go on any following Wednesday at the same time noted below, as long as you appear before 06/24/2010. If you do not have your fingerprints taken by that date, your application will be considered abandoned."

    I was not able to go on my scheduled appointment since I was scheduled to work at the hospital (and can't get relief from work), I did not ask for a re-schedule, I just went there the next following Wednesday as written on their letter and there were no problems, it took about 15 minutes or so (more time waiting than the actual fingerprinting/biometrics).

    Good Luck on your biometrics re-scheduling.

    Then after that they test me on writing. they asked me to write "Columbus Day is on October"

    whooo whoo! Thank God. Now just waiting for the oath-taking appt letter.
