Concern # 3: it will probably slide, if you tell them they will deport you. As far as coming back and kick you in the ass - you never know - it might or it might not... I would consult a lawyer and try not to lie... my $0.2 oh yeah - if you do end up covering this - do not apply for...

I would have to disagree with this - once you become a Citizen and (let's just assume) you leave US without your US passport and without certificate, once you try to re-enter they WILL let you in, but make sure you have water and money to wait several days at the customs :) If you're a...

Sounds to me like some sort of sadomasochism – it is clearly stated on your oath letter what to bring/wear to the ceremony.

Everyone – great forum, thanks for all the support and advises. I am a US Citizen now. Now, saga continues – my wife came to the country on J-1 (currently overstay status), when her J-1 was about to expire we applied for B-1, which was successfully granted, then we applied for 2 more...

I've been told (State of Ohio) birth certificate is not available for 2 months.

I just answered my own question - Call you local Federal Court House - info is available at their generic phone number.

I just had my interview this morning N-652 recommends me for approval. I have asked officer to make a note that I am willing to take oath ceremony in any nearby citiy (I am in Cincinnati, OH). Just curious – where can I look/call/go to see what is the next scheduled date for Oath Ceremony in...

Some of you know my story, briefly – I applied too early and my application was denied, so I re-applied when it was time for me. I have my Interview letter in the mail scheduling me to appear in beginning of August, however, no letters to go get my fingerprints taken. InfoPass lady told me...

However, to be even more specific -- wait till you're FULLY eligible, then apply showing your _correct_ date, not the one on GC. Done deal. No extra papers needed.

You need to use search function - this topic has been covered here. Look for my posts, one of them explains your question in details.

2 hours is normal. As far as second part, I am curious myself, the only thing I can think of is that you were fingerprinted less then 15 months ago and they were able to re-use those f-prints. only my thoughts. i would do infopass.

my 2 cents Well, from my point of view, company is the one who is in the most trouble… By accepting his money to pay her, they signed their “life” away, not sure, who can blackmail whom… It is in best companies’ interest not to disclose this (please note) fraudulent activity to any...

Good and detailed answer. That's what one would expect from this forum. Thank you.

Thanks Suzy! Do I need to send 2 checks - one for FBI, one for CIS or one check in the amount of $400 to Homeland Security? Also, if I traveled for 14 days during 5 year GC period, do I need to wait extra 14 days before applying or it shouldn't really matter? tnx!

This info is available in the file called “n-400ins.pdf” on USCIS web site, just actually read it last night. Search for this doc on Naturalization page of USCIS web site.

Many of you have seen my “early N-400 due to error on GC post”, now I am about to re-file in the next couple of days, having a question about fees. Since FBI had me fingerprinted less then 15 months ago, do I need to include $70 for their service or simply $330 for USCIS services? If I need to...

Alright, here is the questions to you immigration gurus… It is a known fact that when filing N-400 for second time within 15 months period, FP’ing is not needed. Does that mean that CIS won’t send any FP letters or they still will, basically I guess, what I am looking for is to re-file, but...

Speaking of lawyers, I would like to see this topic in “sticky” where everyone can share info on good attorneys. I had 1 ONE good attorney through out all of my struggles of getting GC and later citizenship, it was back when I lived in Cali. Here in tri state I was not able to find a good...

Ok, here is the update – just got a denial letter 1 day after the interview stating that I do not satisfy residency requirements. Funny part is that CIS apologizes for the error they made on my GC and with new date of March 8 when I am eligible to re-apply. :D Have to wait until Wednesday...

To clarify some point those are mentioned here: 1) Under NO circumstances I intended to lie, according to my GC I was a resident for 5 years, I called CIS tall free number to confirm – their computer showed 2000, I schedule an appointment with INS – officer told me to apply, so I did. 2)...
