And just like that, I’m one step closer to the end!
Interview was today at 8:00 am at the USCIS Columbus Field Office. We went with my husband, but at first the officer only called me in.
I had a few corrections/ update to make, so before I was sworn in I let him know of this. He said it was ok, not a problem. So he swore me in, then started with the civics test:
- What did MLK junior do?
- What are two US national holidays?
- two political parties
- why did the colonists fight the British?
- Name one tribe
Forgot the other question.
The reading was: who elects Congress?
Writing: People elect Congress.
Then we went on to the application. I made the changes / updates.
For the weapons training question, I marked “yes” because I own a gun, which my husband has been teaching me to use. I explained this, he changed the question to “no” and he added “informal”.
After I was done, he called my husband in, asked him when we got married, my full name, my DOB, his marital status. And that was it! He printed off the paper recommending me for approval on the spot.
It felt more like a casual conversation, he was professional but friendly.
Funny note: he asked me how long 751s are taking because officer’s wife has a pending one! 😂😂😂
Getting ready to file my N400 in four weeks. I started the online application today and I'm already pleasantly surprised by how much easier it is than the physical I-751 filing. I had gone through and collected a lot of the information before (dates of travel, employment info from I-751 etc) and drafted the cover letter requesting joint interview if my I-751 is still processing.
Hoping this'll be a quick and smooth process compared to every other step of the way this far!
