U.S. Citizenship Interview with Elvia Velázquez (cc--updated!)

[@agimjashari]

Mrs. Officer Jennifer . If there will be an official Grand Mother title , You deserve it.

[@uscitizenpod]

Lol! Thank you! I don't have children or grandchildren, so I deeply appreciate you title of respect

[@agimjashari]

I am from Albania . Before the age of 100, families were very large. And there were many grandmothers( gjyshe ) in the family, but one of them was called a great mother ( nene madhe ) and this had the qualities of smart, wise, loving, strong in the tasks that the house had. Albanians also have Mother Teresa, who also had no children, but was called Mother Teresa, and today she has been canonized.

[@craigtagliabue3889]

Very good! I wish that every person in this country would be asked all the civics questions and loyalty questions I just heard. Natural ctizens mostly take these questions, values and oath for granted and are not challenged to defend the right of freedom and become loyal to the USA. I really liked her answers and her sincerity! I feel priviliged to have seen this interview and witness my new sister in nationality. May she be blessed with all that can be had in this great country.

[@uscitizenpod]

Thank you very much for your kind words

[@pastorjorge4871]

they are similar. 90% of the interview is based on the N-400. The officer can ask you to define any vocabulary, but not as many that I asked in this interview

[@Deepmindsecret]

[@saraallan8695]

The questions are a little difficult, I need to memorize 100 questions in order to obtain citizenship and I do not know how the interview will be. I try to study the questions well but sometimes they are 🤭

[@jennifercollins7764]

I did but only answered four👈👏👏👍🇺🇸USA USA USA

[@uscitizenpod]

Study the N-400.--90% of the interview is based on it. A good explanation of the civics questions is americanhistory.si.edu/citizenship/ It uses flash, so you have to watch it on a computer. Also watch this video series from USCIS kzbin.info/aero/PLpNZsaiyFfG0mZUx6aS8Tn2pANNymRDaJ

[@yandelycruz3628]

I have my interview this week and I feel a little nervous. I have compared this interview with the example what is on the USCIS page and they do not ask all that, the truth is that I am a little confused😩

[@uscitizenpod]

A USCIS officer can ask you everything on your N-400 applications plus 10 civics question and read/write one dictate sentence. They can also ask you to define some vocabulary to make sure that you understand what you are saying "yes" and "no" to. Don't worry, it is not a vocabulary test. We practiced more vocabulary for the benefit of our students.

Hi I’d like to know if it’s necessary for the spouse to attend the interview as well?

[@uscitizenpod]

@@rubirubi7640the spouse should accompany the applicant if the eligibility for citizenship is based on marriage to a u.s. citizen. The officer may ask the spouse a few questions; and then ask io wait outside while the officer finishes the interview with the applicant

[@rosauratrevino936]

Will my mom get a spanish person when she goes to her interview? She does not speak English.

[@uscitizenpod]

There is no guarantee that she will get a Hispanic officer. Your mom does not have to speak a lot of English, but she needs to understand the questions, Please practice a little bit with your Mom every day!

[@gladysruiz1053]

If she have the exception to do in Spanish, if not it will be in English.

[@salimatoubah3548]

To bring a taxi return is required on the interview day?

[@uscitizenpod]

Check the back of your interview appointment letter--it will tell you if you need to bring a tax return. If the letter does not include a tax return, don't bring it. If there is question about your tax return during your interview, the officer will send a letter to request a copy after your interview. Good luck!

[@harrietjohnson3727]

Congratulations

[@uscitizenpod]

Thank you!

[@Blackford2014]

I live in a border town and have visited my friends and family several times..what if I don’t know the exact number of visits?

[@uscitizenpod]

This is a problem in my family--they live in San Diego and constantly cross the border to go to the doctor, buy building materials, fix cars, etc. Most of the time, they are in Mexico less than 24 hours, so they don't have to record the visit. If you make many trips (like my family), the officer will ask you why? Tell them the truth--"I go to visit my family and for work." Do you use your passport to cross the border or a SENTRI pass or something similar? I don't know how to request a printout of the dates and times. If you use a passport, they may stamp it and you can look at the dates. You can also estimate the dates and put your best guess.

[@sandis3476]

What happen if you file your taxes late in the past?Will it be a big issue?

[@uscitizenpod]

Try to pay you late taxes before you send in your N-400 (or go to the interview) and bring the receipt to the interview.

[@mercyiglesias8936]

You do not ask for spelling of words or word definitions

I’m applying for the citizenship and the first question is if I want to change my name... is that meaning to get my maiden name back? I came here with the K1 visa and my husband (American born and raised) passed away almost a year ago... being now a widow, do I have to include his children in the application? How long is it taking? How much is it now? Thank you so much, have a nice weekend.

Hi

[@sherwinchau9425]

Hello, Sir and Miss , I want to ask a question, a Chinese traveling and living in Cambodia/ Vietnam has a dream on going to USA, he could communicate with English easily,but he is near to 50years old, divorced and responsible for taking care of a autism son about 10 years old, he tried in China for his whole life, but situation is not easy for him, he really wants to struggle to change in free and equal , promising situation, but he has almost no money to explore, and it is painful leaving his lovely son(now under care of grandparents), he hopes there's a way to go to good place legally or illegally, and go back to get his son after he has a good foundation in a promising place like USA, is it possible? how difficult it can be? What is your suggestions on this case? Thank you very much.(he is a kind person and have good thoughts and knowledge on world conditions and career, but he has a such no root people in his country)

[@uscitizenpod]

Now it is very difficult to immigrate to the United States, especially during COVID-19. Do not pay someone to come illegally--you will be deported. It may be easier for you to immigrate to Canada. Or you can try to apply via the US Diversity lottery travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/diversity-visa-program-entry.html Here is more info about immigration travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate.html Also look on the internet for Chinese-Cambodian (Khmer?) organizations in the United States (ex: www.cambodianusa.com/ or www.nationalcao.org/). They may have a good idea about how to immigrate to the United States. Hopefully out immigration policies will change soon. Improve your English, build up your tech skills, and take car of your child. I hope you can come soon.

It can't be that easy the citizens test? You come and try our test in 🇬🇧 you are guaranteed to fail. Questions - Does the handwriting need to be neat ?% if so, then it is a fail. She asked if she trained in weapons, so for me that would be yes in the armed forces and range. Then question was about if you are member of any organisation??? NRA is that OK to say?
