Thank you. Where do you guys get the data about 60-90 days and 30-60 days?

It looks that it may take anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months after the interview to receive the oath letter. Does anyone know why there is such kind of big difference? Does it depend on the country of origin?

Actually, I have not seen any received oath letter postings related to the Mid November-Mid December 2010 interview timeframe from the dowtown LA office. The received oath letter postings are from other offices than downtown LA. I wonder if there is a reason for it.

Folks: I am going downtown L.A. for interview. If anyone has experience with that government location, please let me know your experience and especially where to park during early morning hours. Thank you

I filled my N-400 months ago. During that time the company I work changed hands and the compnay name changed. In my N-400 application it is under the old company name. Does it matter and if asked what should I answer at the interview?

It seems that it is the purpose of this question. You may chose to answer Yes even if you have not done anything you think may be considered as crime of offense. At the time of the interview, they will probably ask you to provide more details. Invoke the fifth amendment. If they refuse to grant...

What kind of information about the trips outside the US is required to present when applying for US citizenship?

An if you keep your first citizenship (in case of dual citizenship), you will run into a confusing situation with two pledges.

No, I can't. It is not based on documents. That's why, I was asking, since I could not find documents. Thanks for the links.

To the best of my knowledge, non-citizens can not get U.S. security clearance. Can you point to a document that shows the opposite?

Why is it difficult to get a security clarance for non-citizens? Currently, a lot of jobs require citizenship and basically they are unavalaible for green card holders rigth from the beginning. What makes the background check for security clearance easier for citizens and difficult for green...

There was a criminal case in which an immigrant was involved. He did a crime and I do not protect him or say that he is innocent. The question is about the sentence. I have heard a comment on the TV that since this person is an immigrant he will receive a 10-year sentence instead of life...
