Remember I said in my first post that my mom has a friend who has passed through the POE after years without living here? She got her citizenship without any problem. O well, I tried.

You know, I really have no interests in giving her helpful advices anymore. She's still raving about her entry experiences to every single person she talks to, giving advices to people by saying just relax and stay calm and make sure you chat with the officer... And like I expected she thought...

I remember you guys! But I was so busy at settling down my mom and I didn't have time to update this thread until today. In other words, she's in!! She has been here for 2 weeks now. The officer did NOT ask her how long she's been away for. The whole time was like casual chit-chatting - How...

Why don't you exchange some Rupees here in the US before you go? I would expect bad exchange rate at the airport. I am planning a trip for myself in December and I'm doing some research also. My plan is to bring my debit card (which bears a VISA/MC sign) and use the local ATMs. That way I...

^^ I wasn't sure if the OP was related to multiple short trips at all... sorry for being confusing.

USCIS is your friend: http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/M-476.pdf

I would always always always check the embassy's website before planning any trips for any updates. Any third party data cannot be 100% relied on, nor they claim responsibility anyway.

Congratulations!!!

and again, I'm all for fun, only if you say "hindi inside" :) Peace and bye.

This is called "investment". I put in maybe half an hour of my time, so that none of this nonsense will re-appear in the future.

So insulting people is your last resort :)

I have no intentions to kill the fun. The title of this thread is "For All 485 Waiters". Like Marooned said, the OP could have said "For All 485 Waiters - Hindi jokes inside" instead. If I knew it's just Hindi jokes, I wouldn't have started this. It's a waste of ALL non hindi speaking...

I don't think so http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_states

No, in case you think I read the Thai... no Hindi messages, they just don't enter my eyes. I just try to scroll for English messages. Everybody here is desperately trying to get the most and latest information on GC. And, yea you are expected to speak in English in the United States, that's...

Thanks for pointing that out!!! I thought you guys were talking in Thai or something...

First of all, congratulations for your GC (yay) There're 2 issues here: Keeping your GC active and becoming a citizen They can take away your GC for whatever reason they like. So say if you're absent for 6 months without getting a re-entry permit before you leave, you should be worried...

Agreed.

Sigh............................................. Hmm... this sounds more do-able. Let's see how she reacts. This will be my Mission #2 I suppose if my Mission #2 is successful, this will further strengthen it. I don't have her SSN in hand so I'll need her co-operation.

Oh boy she's so going to use my address when she enters. But even if they drag me into the case, I think I have sufficient proof to show that I'm a good PR. I'm just praying that they won't kill my GC because I was a dependent of her.

To make things even more interesting: My origin allows dual nationality / two passports. So when we first came here, we used Passport #1. We didn't have Passport #2 yet, and she's planning to apply for P#2 soon before she leaves. In other words, she's going to have a brand new passport which...
