What happens after you take the naturalization test?
Usually the naturalization interview is followed by the citizenship test. At times the citizenship test may come first and if so the naturalization interview will be followed after. If your interview came first and you had taken the citizenship test you are free to go home. Later you may receive a letter in the mail from USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) to notify you if you have passed the interview and test. If you have passed the letter will also give you the date to come back to take you oath of citizenship.
What happens if you do not pass the naturalization test?
If you do not pass the test or you fail a section of the test you will receive a letter in the mail from USCIS within 60 to 90 days that will inform you when to take the next one. You can only take the test twice. If you fail the retake test you are denied citizenship. If you still wish to pursue citizenship you must reapply for naturalization and repay all fees.
