If he got his and did not register before his 26th birthday, he still needs to give a good excuse why he did not register. For people who failed to register and are now too old to register, some civil benefits like getting certain federal jobs are permanently lost. Fortunately citizenshio is...

Yellow letter is a lousy half-minded step taken by USCIS. The only good it does is to remind you that your application is indeed in process but absence or later arrival of the letter does not mean anything. So ignore its presense and also ignore its absense

America will sooner or later become a country without a dominant ethnic and cultural group and everyone consider himself/herself a minority. I as an immigrant can not be anti-immigrantion but I don't thnk the trend bode well for America because America is being balkanized.

Not really. The updating date is believed to be related to general technical maintenance rather than case-specific. I found out this hard and disapointing way myself since my interview has been descheduled three times. Other applicants can verify if they check their online status and mane...

I actually believe USCIS never have asked these questions and I can understand the reason: they themselves don't know.

What is the online status before "testing and interview"? I think it may just refer to your first interview and the online status will stay that way forever no matter what follows up. And it has just recently changed , it still could refer to yoru first interview becaus eonlien status is...

The ironical thing is: There does not seem to be such a question on I485 about whether you ever falsely claimed to be a US citizen or not; therefore the applicant is not obligated to disclose unless USCIS can use that catch all question: have you ever committed an offense for which you were not...

There is nothing much you can do. If you can provide what they need, then provide them, otherwise write a letter nicely explaining that no one keep those records for that long and you really can not provide them and "beg" for their understanding and reasonbleness. Of course, a lession is...

If your parents' GC is employment based, then some W-2 etc should be there. But SInce USCIS(former INS) did not alway s require interviewq and leater submission of any evidece, so your father's W-2 with USCIS may not be up to teh time the GC was granted, rather they were from teh time of...

Do USCIS also keep the records back to 1993?

Inform the USCIS during face-to-face interview

Don't worry and just wait for oath letter. Your immigration journey will be over soon

I personally think checking is not taht easy and requires tedious manual work

Since there is no law that requires you to have state ID unless you drive, it is not an issue. If the USCIS IO wants you to show some evidence you do live at teh address where you live, prepare some utility bill, mortgagage document/lease agreement etc. Even if you drive, most state hornor...

It should be just 2016 (5 years post conviction) UNLESS some thing bad behavior occurred in the application itself that USCIS think is moral charcarter rleated. So prtetty much the only risk you have if you apply now is the loss of the application fee and some time.

If the IO is nasty, he can come up with many strange questions. For example, the applicant need to tell teh story and say he dranks in a bar in NYC and then got pulled over in New Jersey and that is how the DWI/DUI charges came. The IO can conclude the applicants committed actually two DUIs...

Only you can make a decision. You may want to know the odds of success and its 95% confidence interval but I think it is impossible to collect sufficicicnet data for that kinf of inference

If there is no reason, then just wait for the oath letter and then take oath. You won't need to show passport even if you want to for any bizaare reasons. So my advice is: treat passport reneal and your US citizenship as two completely unrelated issue

Never see anyone need to present his passport for citizenship. Do you have any particular reasons why your passport may be wanted by USCIS?

It is hard to define continuous residence before green card. By defnition of NON-permanency, every trip outside USA will re-set residence back to zero.
