My mistake JoeF - yes, you're right (as usual ;)) I missed that angle. Sam

Agree and Disagree I agree with part of what hipka said and disagree with the other. By bringing your wife to the US on an H1B and a) not having a job for her and b) not paying her the going wage for the position mentioned in the H1 her company committed visa fraud. This is exactly the...

Stop overthinking! I know we all want to err on the side of caution with USCIS but COME ON GUYS!! Do you really think they need to know that you were a member of Sam's Club and Costco? :D Sam

typo in URL The URL has been mistyped. Change the ph?t= to php?t= near the end of the URL. Sam

cover letter for N400 Sure, you can write a cover letter (although personally I just see it as a "nice thing to do" but don't see it adding any value - USCIS is going to go through the N400 and process based on that, not on what you wrote in the cover letter). But my point was that since...

N400 info Doesn't the N400 form only ask for your employment history over the last 5 years? Then I don't see the need to explain what happened before that. As long as you got your GC legally (which I believe you did) then you don't need to explain the history behind it since USCIS should know...

Don't believe the online system I totally agree with mpotturi and JoeF - the online thing is a farce. I have checked my status online *every* day since I received the receipt number and it has always shown up as "Status for this Receipt Number cannot be found". I even finished getting...

Cherry Hill Timeline My fingerprinting timeline... N400 mailed: 01/18/2006 Receipt date: 01/23/2006 FP notice: 02/03/2006 Fingerprinted: 02/21/2006 as per N400 notice I can expect to receive an interview notice in 365 days :( [well, that's Cherry Hill, NJ for you] Sam

how do you check with FBI? Hello Xkuger, can you please tell me how to check fingerprint status with the FBI? What number did you call? Do you just say that you've filed for naturalization and are calling to check on the FP status? Thanks, sam

Vaippatel - good luck with your case. Hope it works out for you but I fully agree with vulpasin that you should know when not to speak too much. By the way - may I also add that your belief that hinduism disallows bearing of arms is misguided IMO. I know from a reliable source whom I asked (a...

Newark fingerprint experience Hello everyone, I have a fingerprint appointment at Newark coming up next week. The appt. is at 10am. I was wondering if someone could share their fingerprinting experience and also let me know how long I can expect to be there? Do they usually call you in at...

receipt notice LegalAlien99, My priority date is Jan 23rd as well and I got the receipt notice a week ago! So you should have gotten it too. Better check with them again. sam Application Mailed: Jan 18, 2006 Priority Date: Jan 23, 2006

Cherry Hill jurisdiction I found out from USCIS' website that Cherry Hill handles the following counties: Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, Mercer, Monmouth, Ocean, and Salem. The rest go to Newark. I don't understand why CH should be so slow. The San Jose DO...

RE: Cherry Hill or Newark? Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out. sam

Re: Cherry Hill or Newark? Wendy79, Congratulations on getting your citizenship. I am very happy for you. :) Thanks also for answering my question. I live in Monmouth. Do you know which office it belongs to? Also, you said the processing times are not that much different but my belief...

Cherry Hill or Newark? Hello everyone, can someone please tell me how VSC determines whether to send your file to Newark or Cherry Hill? I suppose it's based on where you live - but what's the determining factor (the county you live in?). Also, how will I know it? At what point (and how) do...

About Selective Service Registration I just can't understand so many of you applying to get a letter from SSS. What is wrong with you people???? :mad: In the N400 form it asks: "Are you a male who lived in the United States at any time between your 18th and 26th birthdays in any status except...

Not true. In our area for example (NY metro) several harassment incidents after 9/11 which were written about in "Letters to the Editor" or similar were acted upon. I guess if you live deep in red-neck country then you're probably right. :) Yes, this may be true but could be worth a try...

What happened to you is a total outrage! Please, please do yourself and all other lawful (and law abiding) immigrants in this county a favor and file an official complaint against those border patrol agents. You might also want to do the following (I would really encourage it): - Write a...

I too took a vacation in Switzerland in 2001. As the previous poster mentioned, they only see your GC. We were not asked any questions but of course that depends on the officer but in any case should be no big deal. Check out the Swiss embassy/consulate's web page for current entry requirements...
