What does “under oath” mean?
Meaning: After promising to tell the truth.
How the officer may ask it
“Do you swear that everything you say today is the truth?”
How to answer
Listen carefully and answer only what is asked. If the officer asks what the word means, explain it in simple words, like: “After promising to tell the truth.” If something on your N-400 is unclear or you are not sure how to answer, talk to an immigration attorney before the interview — this is not legal advice.
