Thanks for your reply. Do you know if I can make an Infopass appointment and find out what's in my file or if I can get a copy of my file? When I was younger, I never kept copies of anything. But as I have gotten older and have lived longer in the U.S, I have started requesting and...

Hi all, I was curious about what paperwork is in your file when you appear for your USC interview. I had my interview a few weeks ago, and the officer had a thick file with some white-colored papers and some blue-colored papers in front of him. I asked him if I could get a copy of my file...

Thank you again. Hi Alex, Joe and CZPHope, Thank you for all the information and the links. After reviewing everything, I have made up my mind and will go for my US citizenship interview next month. - RK.

Thank you! Hello, thank you for your reply. I also did a slightly better keyword search and found quite a few posts related to adoption and US citizenship / permanent residency issues. I realized it would be much easier to adopt a baby if I was a US citizen. I feel better now because I...

Hello, I was wondering if someone could answer my question. I applied for U.S citizenship some time back; but then I got caught in a dilemma about whether to proceed with the application or not for various personal reasons including strong disagreements with my parents. Finally, my parents...

When someone like me - or some of you in the U.S - is in the midst of...

Thank you. Thanks for the good advice. I feel better. I also combed the internet last night for information about PIO cards etc. I have more information now to make the decision, and I am leaning towards withdrawing my application for now. I do wish India would implement true dual...

Hello, If I withdraw my application, will there be an issue if I re-apply a few years from now? I don't know that I will. But I imagine it would get flagged in the computer database. I have already completed the fingerprint stage. I have been agonizing over this for the past few days...

Well, my parents are in India. And they feel that me giving up my Indian citizenship means I am never coming back! To them, it feels like betrayal on some level and a denial of who I am. I first came as a student, and then got my H1, then my G.C; at each stage, they reluctantly accepted my...

Hello, I am in the middle of my N-400 application in CA. The fingerprinting was done last month and I am waiting for the interview letter. However I am having second thoughts about giving up my Indian citizenship and getting American citizenship. Mainly because my parents are a bit upset...
