    Chicago IL - N-400 Timeline

    Sdd, Oath date is given at the time of interview only if you are not undergoing any name changes. Generally it looks like non-name change oath dates are being setup for 7-10 days from the day you passed your interview. I will let others confirm that trend based on recent interview experiences

    Chicago N400 Interview Experience

    Had my interview at 101 Congress Pkwy on Jan 6, 2009. Mine was the 3 year/Married to USC route. Interview time was 8:25 am. But it seemed like all the interviews were running late. Finally my pager buzzed around 9 am. I waited for 2-3 minutes and I was called in by a lady officer. She was very...

    I-181

    From what I've read, this does not seem like something we send. Seems like an internal record that is created by CIS/CBP to record the creation of an LPR record for someone. Typically after a 485 approval, entry of a CP-approved person for the first time into the country and so on. I see a few...

    Hello little elf, of the options you listed, only two will get you an infopass appointment directly - a.) You wish to speak to an immigration officer, and b.) It has been more than 90 days since you filed an I-765 and you did not receive an Employment Authorization Card. So select the option to...

    Help! I need to stay!

    Can american employers sponsor canadians for work based green cards? If so then that would be another route you can pursue. You will need to find a company that would be willing to demonstrate a need for your skillsets short in supply in the US and can file a work based green card for you.

    marriage

    Spouses of LPRs can only file 485 if they are already in the country on their own independent visa and a visa number for 485 is available from the dept of state. Also the whole process of applying for spouse's LPR is very simple and does not need a lawyer unless there is some complication...
