Thanks BoatBod That was a great piece of advice bbod. Thanks a lot. I agree

Do *NOT* do this. It is useless. You might be called for jury duty and other legal mess can break out. See "The Juror" movie of Demi Moore. One thankless job is jury duty though if you are asked to be on Jury you cannot say no (usually). It is the responsibility of a citizen to do jury duty...

Hi I used to be here in late 2004 and a bit later when I got my citizenship. Folks such as Rahul Kumar and another guy from PA remember well for my idiosynchrosies and such (How ya doin' Rahul? Any addition to family yet? LOL) Now the question. My unmarried sister aged 50 might need help...

I do not have PIO card Gurus I do not have PIO card. It takes time to get those cards. If I had the card I would not have asked the question first case. Now the timing is important because I have to invest now and may get the PIO card later. I am in USA and talking to my sister to buy it...

Can anyone reply? Please...

Gurus I am already a US CItizen as some of you may know. I plan to buy some real estate now in India (open plot of land for building a house later or just for investment only - may sell it as is later). I do not have either dual citizenship/PIO card. My US Passport is current and I have the...

IMO, just IMO, INS would not even bother why or when you got laid off. Did they bother about your work history? Probably not. If you have a lay off letter just carry it. BUT DO NOT SHOW it to him unless asked. Volunteering inforamtion is PRETTY USELESS and CAN LAND YOU IN TROUBLE. Just do not...

I sent both applications in the same packet. Yes certified return receipt requested was added to the mail. That makes sure that the packet reached USCIS. Each applicant needs a separate application (AND FEE) but both can be sent in the same envelope. I did.

By regular processing, I got it in just 14 business days. Phillydude might have gotten it a bit late :-) but do not believe him. :D If you have lot of time before you apply for passport and you travel, take the beaten path of regular mail and do not waste your money on faster processing.

Yes they do. BTW you seem to be a clone of me in having paranoid attacks. Relax pal. Things will go as destined by the Immigration God :) LOL

Gurus I have two quick questions. TIA for any help. 1. I have an unmarried sister (over 21) who I think can be sponsored for greencard. She is currently in India. Could it take nearly 10 years for her to get papers? 2. My widowed mother is in desh too. I want to sponsor her first. If she...

A friend of mine did this to his son. He too stays in NJ and the kid is in school at Purdue. He got his citizenship in NJ. I do not have any more details and cannot get anymore as well but for sure he did it. Good luck
