    4 weeks after interview -- no news yet

    I would just take it easy and continue living your life.. In just a few weeks you will get a decision, and it is very likely going to be a good one.. 5 days is nothing - give them at least 2 weeks to schedule you for the oath ceremony..

    USCIS Case Status online accurate?!

    status online :confused: Unlike Green Card, Citizenship decision is not made / online status is not updated until the date of your Oath Ceremony. That's what they tell you when you call the 800 number, and that's what I experienced myself after having completed the process..

    Obtaining a visiting visa to Canada for my parents in India/US

    It is actually quite simple - if you parents have a Multiple Entry (M) US Visitors Visa (B-1/2) - they will have no issues applying and getting a Canadian visa here in the US. Make sure you make it clear that (a) both you and your parents are in the US legally, and (b) you all have been...

    Citizenship Interview before 5 years of GC

    I would try an INFOPASS first - and request EARLIER OATH DATE. With airline ticket in your hand - ASK TO TALK TO THE IO SUPERVISOR. It is within their discretion, and since you have a good case to expedite - you may even get your citizenship a couple weeks before your travel date... What's...

    Request For Evidence

    I agree that the last relevant online status update is Testing and Interview - that's when they send you an Interview Letter. According to USCIS - the decision (in Citizenship cases) is made on the Oath Date. So even if you are approved - the online status WILL NEVER CHANGE from Testing and...

    Still stuck in RFE

    Call USCIS and ask for your biometric fee money back - since they dropped your prints / did not provide a quality service.. just kidding =) Lucky to have noticed the issue - otherwise you would have waited for months..

    Question about the IL

    If you feel really patriotic about your new country - go register for selective service. You can pick up an application at any US Post Office. But if you have other better things to do - I would not even worry about it. =) Initial Interview = First Interview (this is a standard label they use).

    Oath Letter returned

    The finger of fate is helping you. When you go for your infopass tomorrow - ASK TO GET THE OATH CEREMONY ON THE SAME DAY. Bring the airline ticket as evidence and if denied - ASK TO TALK TO THE SUPERVISOR (this is always your right to do so). In any case - be cheerful and nice to everyone -...

    Applying citizenship after GC through CP

    IMHO - This should not be an issue. Chances are - they will not even ask you about it. If they do - just state the facts. If the interviewer asks for documentation - do the best you can to get requested evidence.

    Oath Letter Tracker for October '09 interviews

    waiting for the Oath Letter My interview went quite well. I was scheduled for the 8am interview on 15-Oct-2009 at the Prosperity Avenue office in Fairfax, VA. I was 20 minutes late, because of the horrendous traffic/rain. I did not have to wait for more than 5 minutes - was called in...

    Traffic ticket a week before oath!

    Speeding tickets don't count either before or after the interview.. Why would you even worry about a small thing like that?

    Call your local ICE office and find out if they can help you.. =) Make them feel guilty for wrongfully arresting you and ask them for help.
