What to Bring to Your Naturalization Interview: Checklist

Arriving prepared reduces stress. USCIS tells you exactly what to bring in the appointment notice, so your notice is the final authority. This checklist covers what applicants commonly need.

Checklist

• Your appointment notice.
• Your Permanent Resident Card (green card).
• A valid state ID or driver's license.
• Your passport and any travel documents the notice mentions.
• Any documents the notice specifically asks you to bring.

The day before

1. Do one last mock interview instead of a long study session.
2. Say your answers out loud once: the civics test is oral.
3. Plan your route and arrive early.

Read how the civics test works and the answers that change.

Which test will you take? The 2025 civics test (128 questions, 20 asked, 12 to pass) applies to Form N-400 filed on or after October 20, 2025. If you filed earlier, you take the 2008 version (100 questions, 10 asked, 6 to pass). Check your receipt notice.
