U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services proposes that the new test adds a speaking section to evalaute English skills. An officer would show photos of ordinary scenarios – like daily activities, weather or food – and ask the applicant to verbally describe the photos. In the current test, an officer evaluates speaking ability during the naturalization interview by asking personal questions the applicant has already answered in the naturalization paperwork. Which do you think the U.S. Citizenship should involve? A speaking section where the applicant has to verbally describe photos

Another proposed change would make the civics section on U.S. history and government multiple-choice instead of the current oral short-answer format. A current civics question has an officer asking the applicant to name a war fought by the U.S. in the 1900s. The applicant only needs to say one out of five acceptable answers – World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War or Gulf War – to get the question right. But in the proposed multiple-choice format, the applicant must know all five of the wars fought by the U.S. in the 1900s in order to select the one correct answer. Do you agree with the proposed change? Yes
