The new one. When you go for the biometrics that give you a book with the questions and answers and a CD of the same to play when driving around.

Couple of questions you need to look up the answers for. State governor, your Senators and who covers your district in the House.

There's nothing very hard about the facts covered in the new test... the problem is that some of the questions are horribly worded to the point that you really don't know what the hell they're getting at. I'm sure I also found a couple of answers that are not entirely accurate

Any other left-field questions we should know about along the same lines as "have you lied to a federal officer"?

I'm also curious what documents people were asked for beyond the few listed on by USCIS (drivers license, passports, green card). I'm planning to take a fat file of everything from tax returns and DMV records to the giant print out of airline flights I've taken in the last 10 years, just to be sure. Oh, and a copy of the N400 I submitted.

More N-400 news for y’all, mailed ours today to Phoenix, so I thought I’d share the journey too.

Three separated applications in the same envelope, all 5 year residency. I’ll let you know on progress. (Plus one more in the family but that one has gone to Texas).

I think we should have a timeline thread exclusive for the N400 so we can all follow without jumping from each other threads.

I will start it please all add your individual journey.

Bummer on the RFE I expect one any day as well
Great about the Fingerprint appt.

Do you know what the RFE is for or is it personal!

I have been told that this is a glitch in the system , when they send out your biometrics letter it shows as an RFE on your status.
