Citizenship classes
Does anyone know how these classes work, what do you have to do? do you need to take your partner with you at any point? How long thses go for? any information would be good.
Thanks:) |
Re: Citizenship classes
Why do you need to go to classes. Just study from the book and CD they give you at the biometrics appointment.

Re: Citizenship classes

Currently from applying for citizenship to the biometrics is about a month. Then another 3 - 5 months for the interview. It depends which office you live near and how many applications before yours that office is processing. Mine took from application to swearing in ceremony 14 weeks. Some are quicker, some longer especially where the oath ceremony is weeks after the interview, mine was next day. There is no precise timeline. |
Re: Citizenship classes
ok thanks for that. Do you at any stage have to take you partner with you? It sounds simple. I hope it is!

My wife came and sat in the waiting room while I was interviewed. You are of course allowed to have guests attend your oath ceremony. |

The test consists of 10 questions selected at random from a pool of 100. You need to get 6 right. When you go for the biometrics before the interview, they give you a booklet and CD containing all 100 questions and answers.
How long it takes, anything from a couple of months to a year. 6 Months is probably a good average though. |

Not multiple choice and it's an oral test. May be it's changed recently but when I took my test 3 yrs ago we were asked 3 questions. If you don't get them right they normally just keep on asking question until you get the required number. My questions were easy...what colours are in the US flag...how many stripes etc...it's like they want you to pass.
Even the new questions are not hard, but you have to get 6 out of 10, and you only get one shot on the day. |

It has changed a bit. The questions have changed and some need you to research the answer. Such as who is the Governor of your State, your State Representative etc.
