What is the respondent's right during the N-400 interview?

During the N-400 interview, a respondent has the right to present evidence and witnesses, which is crucial for supporting their application for naturalization. This right ensures that applicants can substantiate their claims and enhance their case by providing relevant documentation or bringing in individuals who can testify on their behalf. Presenting evidence helps to clarify any questions or concerns the USCIS officer may have regarding the application, facilitating a fair assessment of the applicant's eligibility for citizenship.

The other options do not accurately represent the rights of an applicant during the interview. While applicants have certain rights in an immigration context, the refusal to answer questions could hinder their case, and changing the application during the interview is not generally permitted as the application must be consistent. Additionally, while applicants may have support during the interview, certain restrictions apply to who can accompany them, making the right to present evidence and witnesses the most relevant and significant choice in this context.
