For me, my citizenship test and ceremony were not a big deal and I didn't want any special fanfare or acknowledgement because I'm not someone who likes extra attention in general.
But for my mom? Man she dressed up in a 4th of July-esque costume and ran around telling the world she became American. I'm surprised she didn't rent a plane with a banner to fly over her building.
People are different. So listen to how he feels about it and respect how he wants the information treated. It doesn't matter if you think it's a big deal or not, it matters what he thinks.
PP, that’s so adorable of your Mom!!

It is clearly a big deal, that is why he wanted the test kept private. Why does everything have to be announced non stop? Plus he did clearly get his green card through you, but not his citizenship. Citizenship takes at least 3 years, and by now he could been divorced and still get it. He decided to marry you, maybe he regrets it now? Maybe this is a big deal to you? I did it, and it wasn't a big deal to me until the swearing in ceremony when it was a medium deal. Many immigrants don't ant people to know when they are taking the test.
