Also, say that you don't know the details of the naturalization process without explicitly stating it.

Yes, the pool of questions on the test is large, but the actual test that is administered is 10 questions pulled "randomly" from that pool. "Randomly" is used here to be deliberately chosen to ensure that this is not actually a boundary (top five questions are basic ones like "who is the current president" and "what are the branches of the government") and then administered in every major language (and minor ones upon special request). All you need is a simple majority, too. Most agents I worked with literally stopped asking questions once the person before them got six correct.

I'm still willing to bet that HS juniors & seniors have a better chance of passing it than most sitting GOP members. ...I'm willing to bet that most middle-schoolers have a better chance. The ignorance is strong in the GOP.

Upon entry into the United States, individuals must comply with the terms of their visa, such as maintaining lawful status, abiding by visa expiration dates, and adhering to any restrictions on employment or study. Depending on the type of visa, individuals may also have the option to apply for permanent residency, known as a green card, which grants them the right to live and work in the U.S. indefinitely. This process typically involves meeting additional eligibility criteria, such as sponsorship by a family member or employer, and navigating a separate application process with USCIS. Ultimately, for those aiming to become U.S. citizens, obtaining a green card is often a crucial step towards eligibility for naturalization, which requires meeting residency, language, and civics requirements, among others. Throughout each stage of the immigration process, applicants must carefully follow instructions, provide accurate information, and adhere to deadlines to maximize their chances of success.

How do you deal with the doomscrolling that says America is doomed? I’m in another country thousands of miles away and I still feel scared. Especially for my relatives living there. I don’t know how you cannot feel so hopeless. Do you have any idea how you be feeling okay?

Here's the thing.

I'm moving to another country far from all of my family and almost all of my friends.

I can't drive which is kinda a death sentence over there until I've learned.

I'm coming from Paris to most likely living in a suburban area and the thought alone scares me.

I'm poor by US standards because I've only had a French salary up until now and my savings will surely be eaten through quickly.

I won't be allowed to work/make money in the US or leave the US soil after I've gotten married. First I'll have to ask permission and then I'll have no guarantee how long I'll have to wait before I'm legally allowed to even look for a job.

And speaking of jobs, I worked as a translator to the French language up until now, a skill which is largely useless over there, so who knows if I'll find work and what it'll be.

And speaking of language, arguably that one's minor, but I dread the idea of every single person asking me "where I'm from" within 1 sentence I've spoken, because of the accent I have that I can't get rid of.

So in many ways, regardless of the election result, I wouldn't have been okay anyway. I'm gonna be entering hard mode pretty fucking hard anyway because of general circumstances and age-old US law. My doomscrolling these days is more about USCIS file processing times, what documents allow you to get a learner's permit, and apartment listings and street views of suburban "parks" that look nothing like parks.

But to me, that beats living in fear of another travel ban and crying at the airport every time I have to part from my partner. Maybe I'll regret it, and if so I'll just move back to France. But this decision isn't a fluke. I was well aware things weren't gonna be easy for me before anyone became aware of it.
