My Experience
45 years old male. Living in New York City.

Came to the USA ( New York) with the Green card lottery ( diversity visa) in 2010, from Africa.
Technically,I became eligible to apply in 2015 ( after 5 years), but I didn't do it because I was owing the IRS (Two thousand dollars), plus procrastination.

I finally applied in October 2018 ( last year) after I paid all my backed up taxes.

- Application on October 2nd 2018.

- Biometrics on October 24th 2018 ( in Brooklyn)
  ( Note: After the biometrics, website gave me a 20 months estimation, then it sometimes changed (11 months, then 8 months, then went back up to even 22 months)

 - Notice of Interview Scheduled received in the email on June 28th 2019, (then after a week on my mail home address ) for July 25th 2019

  - July 25th 2019, Interview in Manhattan ( New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan)

   - I realized that I forgot the letter, but I had it on my phone on pdf file, and they were ok with it.
   - Officer first asked to swear that i'd tell the truth
   - Basically went over my application ( was on constantly on the screen of his computer, barely looking at me), asking me the same questions ( do You owe IRS, have you travelled since you applied, have you been involved in terrorism, etc...)
   - Asked me if I brought my tax return ( I didn't)
   - Asked to see my Passport and Green Card
   - Civics questions:
    1- Senators are elected for how many years
    2- House Representative are elected for how many years
    3- How makes Federal Laws
    4- Name one branch of the Governement
    5-Give the name of one Framers of the Constitution
  - English Question
    1- Read: California is the most populous state in the US
    2- Write: California is the most populous state in the US
    3- Write: The State of Washington has a border with Canada

  - Asked me if I wanted to change my name, to verify if it was properly written
  - Application approved ( Gave me a paper stating that)
  - Informed me that I will receive a mail notifying me of the date of the Oath, when I asked him if he could give me an estimation of the date, he told me that now, the computer does it )

Hope this will help. Good luck everybody.
