Folks, I got my naturalization certificate recently; and I applied for a passport middle of last week (expedited). I submitted my original naturalization certificate with it. I have an urgent issue for which I need to travel to India ASAP. What should I do now? Is there a way to get the...

Thanks Flydog, equate and happigal. In addition to the express mail confirmation number in the receipt did the post office give you any confirmation or receipt that they have taken your passport application? I do not have the receipt of express mail payment (and hence do not have any...

Friends, When we apply for a US passport after naturalization - we have the option of applying at a post office. Does the post office not give any receipt that we have submitted the application? When I went to the post office and did an expedited with overnight delivery (express mail) - the...

Once we get naturalization certificate is it confirmed that we are citizens of US? What are the chances of they taking away your citizenship? What are the chances of they coming back and saying sorry it was a mistake - we should not have approved your application for citizenship? Anybody know...

Can you somebody please tell me what is the process to obtain an Infopass appointment?

Can somebody explain how the IO would know that a traffic ticket is pending? I know that you are not supposed to lie - and I am not suggesting that one lie. My only point is that if the IO does not bring up "Traffic tickets" (which he very likely won't) and if the interview does not disclose it...

How is this relevant? There is no need in the N400 process to provide employment document. For example - if someone does not work - can he be denied citizenship? Not really. So why would employment letter be needed?

Hello, I have read in some posts over here that during the naturalization we are required to sign our full name on the photograph. Is that true? My full name is very long and won't fit in the 2X2 photograph. Any suggestions? Thanks

So that answers the question of how to sign the passport - the overwhelming majority says that one can sign the passport as you would normally sign any document. However, what about the application form for the passport? Since the naturalization certificate has the full name spelled out as the...

I have my naturalization interview coming up soon. From what I understand when I get my naturalization certificate - I have to sign my full name on it. Is that correct? Also, on the passport application form - where it asks me to sign; do I need to also sign my full name (as on the...

Folks, I read on some posts that we need to update SSN card after naturalization. My SSN card does not have any restrictions (I had changed it when I got my Green Card 5 years back). Do I still need to get my SSN card updated after naturalization? What's the purpose of that?

Once we get the naturalization certificate - can somebody tell me what are the next steps to obtain a US passport? What are the documents required for that? What forms needs to be fiiled? Where can we apply for the passport to get the fastest return? Thanks

I understand what all of you are saying. My situation is slightly different - I already submitted my N400 form. In there I listed 5 international travels (each of them was less than 2 months). However I did not mention the cruise vacation that I took 2 years back. It was a 3 day cruise with the...

I took a cruise vacation a few years back. Took a cruise ship on August 28 from Florida and came back to Florida on August 31. During those 3 days we were on the cruise ship in the atlantic ocean and took a 6 hour stay on the bahamas island one of the days. In the section on N400 form where we...

Which photos does the IO ask you to sign? The 2 photos that you submitted when you sent the N400 form? OR brand new photos?

Are we supposed to sign the photos during the interview?? Is that Full Name signature or the usual signature? Are we supposed to sign the front of the photo or the back?

I had submitted 2 passport photos with my N400. I have my interview in a couple of weeks. Do I need to to carry additional photos? Do they need to be identical as the ones that were submitted with the N400? Thanks

I have my interview coming in a few weeks. I realized that when I submitted my N400 form I made 1 mistake: 1. I listed 5 trips that I had taken out of the country in the last 5 yers (each of them were less than 2 months) 2. I forgot to mention 1 trip - this trip was on a cruise vacation to...
