You wont have too many issues. your case is similar to mine... we too were on assignement, maintained our home in the US, taxes same as you... One of the below will happen: 1. Since none of your foriegn trips are more than 6 months at any given time I/O may not ask for any proof. 2...

Does his passport carry indian address? does yours/spouses? Notarized copies of those pages was enough for our kids...

I went in person. They charge extra for rush service. Said it will take 20 days, but got notification that it was done in 7. stipulation was that i collect it in person, not courier.

BTW case status online for me & my spouse still says "Received & Pending"!! I took oath yesterday & applied for passport.

Hi folks, I too took Oath yesterday, in the morning. Ceremony started at 10:05, I was in my car as a US citizen at 11:07. It lasted just for an hour. Very well organized. The take away from that ceremony mainly was that America is welcoming all of us/new citizens with open arms. It felt...

On the PIO form, they ask "proof of permanent address in india" What proof have people submitted? Is having that address on the Indian passport enough? (last indian passport which will be canceled)

Question for Zen0 He had posted about using the "will call" option for passport. Did he really get the passport back in 3 business days? Just wondering...

Huracan, Both our oaths are on 22nd August. Mine is at 10 AM. Knowing you, I am sure you have done your research on where to park so that coming out is easier, what to take etc. Can you share your thoughts? thanks.

Omorpheus: how was your interview? If i remember it was for today...right?

Yes, you can take your son with you. No issues there at all. We had ours. THere was another family with 3 of theirs.

Got oath letter - for both me & my spouse for Aug 22nd. Huracan: your prediction was correct :-)

But the real interview test does NOT have multiple option answers - there are NO options given. This test is misleading. I wouldnt use it at all....

immigrateful, You should answer NO. & if he asks to look at tax document, mention that the NR is for state. IO's are intelligent, they wont have an issue with a state NR at all. In fact he wont even question you. If you answer Yes, he *will* question you. Not worth answering Yes, IMHO

I moved from another state to CA & had the same issue. Have passed interview w/o any issues. This NR is NOT the NR they are asking about - that is being NR as in living in another COUNTRY... another state does not matter. My lawyer said the same as well.
