    Will my social security points restart from zero if I return?

    My spouse is a US Citizen but I'm not. We will be returning to India for good and I will be surrendering my GC (or may not renew it all - so it becomes invalid). In case we come back to US after a few years, will I be able to get back my social security points that I had at the time of leaving...

    To Naturalize or Not?

    whymenot, I'm in almost a similar situation like yours. And I have talked to a couple of leading lawyers. From what I heard from them and also from this forum you can apply for citizenship for your wife without worrying. Every application is viewed separately and so you wife WILL not have any...

    Never worked for GC sponsering Employer

    Deepa, I'm exactly in your situation. I have many more years to go before I could apply for citizenship. I had true intent to work for my sponsor, but it's very hard to prove that to BCIS (unless they are able to read my mind!). I have also done a lot of research on this and consulted a good...

    Never worked for sponsor. Can spouse get citizenship without problems?

    Thank you all! It's ok that I lose my GC. If we come back I can get a GC through my wife and the fact that I may have to wait for a few years to get entry is fine. Thanks again.

    Never worked for sponsor. Can spouse get citizenship without problems?

    Thanks. Let me clarify. I won' be getting citizenship. Only my wife will. Once she gets it we will return to our home country and we may come back after 10 years or so. I just want to get citizenship for one of us so that we can come back later.

    Never worked for sponsor. Can spouse get citizenship without problems?

    I've never worked for my GC sponsor. They processed my GC as a future employee. After I got my green card I couldn't leave my present employer because of a variety of reasons (such as losing all my pension money because it vests only after 5 years, sponsor was not very keen in taking me in...

    cool_whiskey, Leave it blank. It's for entering any social organization that you have worked for and not your employers. You can send a single money order. Remember if you are an Indian the fees is 100 + 50 (not 100 +75) (http://travel.state.gov/hlop.html) Send your original I-94. If...

    Well Guys, I got my PP. My first name is misspelled. The first name is a long one and they have missed an 'a'. It's not easily noticeable. Also my I797 has validity until May 2004 whereas they have stamped until May 2005! This is a problem as I have extension approval with me for the period...

    Rakram, Airborne does not have a regular pick-up at the visa office. So when you find that your PP is dispatched call up Airborne and ask them to pick it up. Please acknowledge that you read this message, otherwise I won't get sleep! :p :mad: ;)

    I called up DC today. They again said that my PP must have been dispatched already. The lady who I spoke to, was very understanding and helpful. She told me that he courier may not have picked up. I called up Airborne and asked them and they said they don't have a pickup at the DC location! So I...

    camera_guy01, Thanks for the great job you are doing. I called up DC today and they said mine is approved on 24th and they must have already sent it or otherwise they might be sending it by today! Mine will come through Airborne, and I found that they have not picked my PP yet. So...

    I too called up DC, waited for more than 2 hours and finally hung up! It looks like it's a holiday for them. I will be traveling on Jan10th, and my DC date is Sep 28th. I was very confident that I will get the visa before I go, but now I have slowly started doubting it! Going by the trend...
