How Long Does a U.S. Citizenship Interview Take?

At the end of the Naturalization process you will have an interview. At that time the interviewer will go over your application with you and test you on your ability to read and write English as well as ask you up to 10 civics questions (you only have to get 6 of these questions correct).

If all goes well you will pass your interview and you will be given an appointment (generally not at the interview itself but via mail) for your swearing in ceremony.

The interview itself should be in an office setting. It should take between 10 to 30 minutes from start to finish. It will likely take you longer to get through security, check in, and be called for your case.

      Our experience was amazing. The process was smooth. Larry and Jason helped us every step of the way to get my husband’s temporary visa. When I started getting anxiety about how long it takes, what’s the next step or what if’s, I would call either of them and they had no problems giving me answers. Jason went with us to our meeting with immigration, and made us laugh the whole time. He really helped keep me calm as I suffer from anxiety very badly. A year later, I can still call Larry and ask questions about the next step. I’m very thankful I found these guys!!! Highly recommend them!

      I met the love of my life in China. When I was looking for an Immigration attorney to help me get the K1 Visa for my fiance, I was so glad that I found the Law Office Of Lawrence Gruner. Attorney’s Lawrence Gruner and Jason Marachi gave us excellent representation throughout the whole process and got us through the process very quickly and smoothly. It only took six month’s for my fiance to get her K1 Visa and move to the U.S. with me so we could get married and start our lives together. And in another six month’s later, my wife now has her Green Card. I highly recommend this Law Office for your Immigration Law needs.
      Thank you Mr. Gruner and Mr. Marachi!!
