What is the right way to sign the naturalization certificate? Can we sign it the same way we sign driver license and checks? Or we must wrights the whole name the way printed on the naturalization certificate? The signature thing is confusing!
That is a permanent document for the rest of your LIFE... it needs to be signed formally.

At my oath they distributed instructions 'Proper Signature for Your Natz Certificate', which, btw, was printed on the same sheet as Oath of Allegiance. Also, I later asked IO to verify. 'You must sign your certificate in cursive, and the signature must match your name as it is printed on the certificate. Do not use initials. Sample signature: John James Smith'.
My normal signature is my first name+ last name (in cursive). I had to sign cert as first name+middle name+last name.
Used it already in SSA office and applied for passport. Everyone wanted to see my DL, and had no problem with neither my certificate nor my normal signature on checks which I used to pay for the service.
I heard that there was a special way to sign the naturalization certificate. My signature the one I use all the time is a scrawl and you can't really read my name. However people say that the one in your certificate must read your full name so that you need to pretty much hand write your full name maybe in cursive so that it's readable.
Then I also heard that you must do exactly as you did in the back of the picture but what about if I only wrote my first and last name and in my certificate it say my first, middle and last name. Which is the right way?
so, again, for PP, i canNOT use my scrawl, because PP appl has to match the Nat certificate ???
ARRRGHHH im going nuts!!!!
Thanks, Vorpal. by that you mean I can use the scrawl on the PP application, actual PP, or both?
(sorry I wasn't that specific before).
PS: I'm just thinking of the fact if the sig's on nat cert. and PP appl. have to match ???
