What Are the New Naturalization Government Questions?
Helping the Nicaraguan citizen, pictured above, get her U.S. citizenship was one of the honors of my life. She and her family members – whom I have known for about 20 years — were Blandon Law’s first clients. The journey to naturalization, and the questions asked at the immigration interview, are different for each person.
Harder Test Coming Soon - Apply for Naturalization NOW
Plans are to make the naturalization test more difficult, possibly including an essay requirement. See this link for the breaking news. TALK TO BLANDON LAW IMMIGRATION ATTORNEYS NOW to see if you can apply immediately and online for U.S. citizenship. Until a foreigner is a U.S. citizen, they can be deported and detained without release.
Most Common Test
The civics test is a set of questions about American history, government, and basic rights. At the naturalization interview, the immigration officer asks up to 10 questions, and the applicant must answer at least 6 correctly to pass. The questions can include things like, “Who was the first president of the United States?” or “What do we call the first ten amendments to the Constitution?” Studying for this test is an important step, since it shows knowledge of our country’s history and respect for the naturalization process.
Test in Your Native Language
If you are 55 years or older and have had a green card for at least 15 years, you can use your own language for the citizenship test. This means you do not have to learn hard English words or answer questions like “What is the rule of law?” if you have already lived, worked, and been part of the American community for many years.
The law understands that living here for a long time is important. The “55/15” rule makes sure people are not kept out of the benefits of citizenship – including voting, federal jobs, and sponsoring parents and siblings – just because of language. It is a chance that can change lives, and it should be shared with family and friends who may qualify.
No Civics Questions at All
Some green card holders do not get asked ANY civics questions during their naturalization interview if they are being treated for certain medical or physical conditions. These health problems can make it impossible to study or remember answers. For example, someone with advanced Alzheimer’s disease cannot recall basic facts. A person with severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) cannot focus during an interview. Someone with a serious learning disability that began in childhood cannot learn history facts at all. In these cases, the test is waived completely.
