Citizenship

My interview was in Philadelphia office on 41st street few days ago. The staff in the USCIS office was extremely polite and very helping. They announced my name on time, officer shook hand and walked me to his office. Asked me if I am expecting a lawyer then asked to raise my right hand and to take oath that everything I would say would be all truth and nothing but truth. Asked me to be seated, took my picture with computer camera, verified the GC, the invitation letter and ID, verified me with my finger prints, downloaded questions for me and complained about slow computers which will be upgraded soon. Questions were about constitution and about civil war etc.

Once questions were answered he asked me if I want my name to be changed, went over all the yes/no questions randomly, be careful some questions are no and some yes so make sure to listen carefully before answering.

Next step was to read a question from the ipad screen and write the answer on the ipad screen. which completes my reading/writing test.

While waiting for computer to print results he pleasantly talked a little bit about my case and informed me that he is approving my case and recommending for oath ceremony. I would receive a letter in mail in few days with the date of Oath ceremony. If you have any travel plans you can request a date change for oath ceremony.
