Hi, Guys. I need advice on how to handle following situation: I'm preparing N-400 for my brother and found that he was required,but never registered with Selective Service. Since he is over 26 years old, there is no way to register. Now I need to prepare a letter explaining that failure to...

To my understanding it is up to particular judge how to handle this cases. If You take a closer look at cases on pages 90-91 and check them on PACER, then it is clear how different judges handle it. For example, my case was assigned to WJM(William J. Martini), who,as you can see,immediately...

Dont worry, If interview goes fine and there is no name check(or other BS) pending on your application, they send you for Oath to 15th floor(which is District Court anyway) and after Oath you receive certificate with Name change paper attached. When I went on April 10 this year for ceremony...

It varies greatly, depending on state you live in. Look at those paragraphs below, from another website, but don't take it to the letter. Definately consult an attorney, and to be on the safe side I would sugest to wait some time. I wasn't in exactly same situation, but was advised to wait at...

16. Yes 17.Yes 18.Yes Pleading guilty is same as being found guilty(a.k.a. convicted) by court. Your conviction is not serious, and given it was 13 years ago, shouldn't be any problems.

Right from USCIS website Q. What should I do if I've already applied for naturalization and my card is expiring? Do I still need to renew my Green Card and pay the $130 renewal application fee? A. If you have applied for naturalization more than six months prior to your card's expiration you...

if you read FBI link it says "The searches seek all instances of the individual's name and close date of birth, whether a main file name or reference. By way of explanation, a main file name is that of an individual who is, himself, the subject of an FBI investigation, whereas a reference is...

Well. I used a wrong word; actually it is prohibitive in my situation, since it is 2 1/2 years already my name check was initiated, so soon results will be available anyway. I don't feel like paying about $3500 just to file and then $300 per hour if atty have to appear in court. BTW I knew that...

I'm in same situation: Name ends with "sky" 15 years in the country. They didn't respond on numerous "Privacy act requests" 2 years and 6 month waiting for name check. Maybe it is because a country I left from doesn't exists anymore. On my greencard it says USSR, but since I lost...

in most cases if it is your first offence you can get a conditional dismissal. Anyway make sure your attorney understand consequences of your sentence for immigration purposes. Here is some reading for you. http://www.defensenet.org/immigration/immig_main.htm The grounds of deportability...

Well, not really a first hand experience, but as I see it depends on interviewing officer. As example, my brother never registered for selective service, same reason - he didn't know. But he is on active duty in the NAVY right now, which in my opinion beats registering. But on his interview they...

Just order your driving record from state DMV and bring it with you to interview. Lots of minor violations dont even go on your report, so why do you have to report them on application? I have seen on different threads that some people go to such lenght as saying that every time you stopped by...
