Newbie78, You don't necessarily have to carry both passports. Say for example us-cda, a Canadian citizen carrying a US passport can enter Canada, and when they ask you at the border country of citizenship, you say American (cause you are entering with US passport), and purpose is to visit...

My spouse becase US Citizen. CIS gave a certificate, which is 8 x 10 paper. The bond paper thickness appears to be of 40lbs. Hence, it is not practical to carry this with you. Therefore, my question is, does CIS offer to supply you with a small wallet type laminated card? If so, what is...

Re: pending name check I called USCIS late last week, and it is still in the Name Check pending status. A nice rep indicated that since someone access my file, don't know who access, but someone did, hence that it is being worked on. Since I'm going to mail N-600 forms to Chicago DO, I'm...

I concur Flydog It basically means that Service Center has transferred the file to your District Office (DO). From this point everything is handled by the DO.

No need to worry... Employment criteria was for when applying for I-485, and then their was a bill passed by prez Clinton in 2000 allowing a person to move to another job or not have a job 6 months after filing I-485. Once you get your GC, you are under no pressure for employment continuity...

Check endorsement It is not the intent to either endorse or go overboard. Cashier's check does not include your informaton like your personal check would. The check is from the bank. Hence, if the check gets misplace by USCIS and then putting a trace through the bank could take 3 months...

not to worry.

I concur Murmur, I agree with both N2006, and Takadigi. Look at my timeline, which is along yours. From my last conversation with USCIS last week, I was told that some one accessed my file last month, so they must be working on it. I'm also in the pending name check stage since June 23rd...

No, the RBI site is not wrong. He bought it from an NRE account. However, if you pay cash/under the table, etc. etc. where the exact amount is also not know, and sell it less than 10 years, then you will get partial cheque and mostly cash. Both - cash and cheque will only get deposited into...

my experience I mailed my N-400 app with cashier's cheque. At the back of the cheque, I put down my name and A# for identity purposes. USCIS returned my app with the cheque about two weeks later saying it was endorsed. So I got another cashier's cheque and mailed it without putting...

I didn't have a PIO I am a no longer Indian Citizen, I have Indian visa on my passport. I have purchased property and sold in India through legal channels. No one asked for my status/PIO/citizenship. However, there is a law, that if you buy property and cannot sell it within I think 8 or...

Calendar days, therfore 4 months.

From what I know by talking to people who have been interviewed is that they will ask you 10 questions on civics/history, of which you have to answer 6. If you answer all six in sequence then they will not ask any more. They will ask you to write a sentence having like 8 to 12 words. They...

I wish... that USCIS provided case status through Web Services, and making it easier for IT folks to write a small app that would have automatically pulled case status, and when changed, send a text message/email to them. It doesn't even use query strings to send ref num that you could store...

Metra I'd take the Metra and get off at Union Stn., and take a cab. It's cheaper with the cab.

Chi-Guy, My spouse interviewed on sept. 20th, and this past friday Sept 27th, she got her oath letter for October 12th. Just trying to help with timelines for oaths from interview dates for Chicago district.

Filing for passport LAmorocco, I understand that you filed for your passport for yourself same day, did you also apply for a passport for your kids? If yes, how does that work for the kids, did you have to fill the N-600 (?) application for them before filing for their passport?
