...1.02 What is citizenship Interview with Rahim Aldemir What inspired you to become a U.S. citizen? I became a U.S. citizen to create a new life in America. My home country was stricken with poverty, I wanted to go to America so I could have a chance at life. What steps did you have to take as part of the naturalization process? I had to maintain a residence for 5 years before I could apply to be a citizen. I was then scheduled fingerprinting and an interview. During my interview I had to take exams on writing and reading English as well as the United States government and history. After passing my exams I was scheduled for a swearing in ceremony, at the ceremony I took an oath of allegiance and was a certified U.S. citizen. How would you describe how you felt about the process? The process was easy enough for me, I began learning English as a second language in my home country. I only had to study for a week because I had already known all the material for the exams and interview. My only complaint is that 5 years is a long time to wait to become a citizen, I wish I could have applied earlier. How has gaining citizenship changed your life? Is your daily life different because of gaining citizenship? There is little noticeable difference in my daily life. I still continue to go through my daily routine. The United States gives anyone who is not a citizen a good life because there is no noticeable difference. Do you feel the process was worthwhile? Yes, I enjoy having...

What inspired you to become a U.S citizen? Back in Brazil life was really hard and dangerous. I had a very low paying job and I had to support my baby and my mom since she had recently been fired and her retirement didn’t give her the adequate amount of money to survive with. I wanted a better life not only for myself but also for my family. My best friend had recently moved to the U.S and she was doing great so I decided to follow in her foot steps and become a U.S citizen. 2. What steps did you have to take as part of the naturalization process? I decided to take the test at the G.H. Fallon Federal Building. I had to study a lot of USA history, which was very confusing, as well as English since it was going to become a part of my life. The test consisted of ten questions but you only need to get six of them right. When you get six of the questions right you pass and continue with the process. The second test was an English skills test. At first my mind went blank but then I relaxed and passed the test with flying colors. 3. How would you describe how you felt about the process? I was very nervous. I thought I was going to fail and get rejected but I was wrong. All the hard work and dedication paid off. The process was also stressful since the future of my family depended...
