    N400 Form - College student with Internships

    I think it would depend on whether there was ever a formal gap in his relationship with the school. Did he ever take a formal leave of absence or did he withdraw and later apply to re-enroll? Or did he just not sign up for any classes during the summers and the 2015 fall semester? Either way...

    N400 - CSC senior application question

    I would say evidence that all their kids (and grandkids if any) do in fact live in the US as US citizens would help a lot--if there are more family members in the US than just the one they live with and/or who sponsored their GC get that evidence. Show that the entire family clearly lives in...

    N400 rfe asked at the day of the interview

    I wouldn't read much into this. I've received emails advising me of online updates more than five years after the actual decision was made on the case. I would focus more on the progress of the actual case, not the progress of the online updates. Since it has only been a month since he...

    TN Visa with no payment?

    Whether it is legal or not IMHO depends on whether the original letter they provided in support of the TN was provided in good faith or not. If they claimed a much higher starting salary when in fact they knew your salary would be only $6,500/year until if and when they placed you with a...

    Ready to file - forgot to file spouse tax for 1 year (more than 5 years ago).

    Well these forums are primarily about immigration--not tax--and I personally know more about immigration than I do about tax (I'm a layman in either case). However I don't believe there is any problem with a green card holder claiming the Foreign Tax Credit. Yes, as a tax resident starting in...

    TN renewal

    nelsona , I presume that OP is referring to the possibility of a new president taking office who is proposing to make radical changes to the US relationship with at least one NAFTA country. I'd agree with nelsona that you likely can't do this more than 2-3 weeks in advance. 2 weeks in advance...

    N400 Sumitted with 2 CMT - (criminal record) - Should I withdraw now?

    Yes they are definitely taking longer because of the past criminal conviction but that is something to be expected. Definitely not a reason to become especially nervous and certainly not a reason to withdraw the case.

    N400 Sumitted with 2 CMT - (criminal record) - Should I withdraw now?

    From doing a search on Google it appears that you have asked essentially the same question multiple times (sometimes with different usernames) over the years both on these forums and elsewhere. I don't think there is any reason to change the advice you were given multiple times by people in the...

    Ready to file - forgot to file spouse tax for 1 year (more than 5 years ago).

    IMHO the 2007 tax year is too far back in the past to worry about. If she was working in Europe she likely wouldn't have owed any US taxes anyways so you can truthfully say she owes no taxes.

    Will this court summons affect my ability to obtain citizenship?

    I've always had the impression that courts keep criminal records for a LONG time--certainly more than 15 years--more like 30-50 years. However, perhaps that is only for felonies--misdemeanors (which a DUI would be) might be for a shorter time period. If the court no longer has a record of the...

    Will this court summons affect my ability to obtain citizenship?

    You need to talk to the courts not the DMV. The two bureaucracies are not always in synch. It is sometimes possible to have your license reinstated but still have a warrant out for your arrest. It is the latter not the former that will be of greater concern to USCIS.

    Will this court summons affect my ability to obtain citizenship?

    As long as you can document the disposition of the old DUI you should be fine. It is primarily the criminal side of the case that will interest USCIS--not the license suspension which is a separate civil process with the DMV. For such an old DUI any final disposition whatsoever--guilty, not...

    Overstay due to delay in petition reaching UCICS

    Unfortunately my take would be that you really need to get it in on time. Since I presume that you plan to continue to work while the extension is being processed, your authorization to work during that time period is based on having filed a timely extension. It is possible that they might...

    Physical presence in resident state

    I don't think that there are any specific physical presence requirements of the type you mention, but you need to have been a US resident for the full five years (or 4 years, 9 months as of July 2017) as well as a resident of the district from which you apply for 90 days. You need to list both...

    TN Visa Salary Change

    There is no real problem with a TN having variable income. It is a bit more flexible than H-1B in that regard. Assuming your own status in the US is also solid (you don't mention your own status) you and your wife should be OK.

    Enter USA while TN1-petition pending at uscis

    I would also add that it sounds like you were being a bit sneaky in buying a ticket to Las Vegas (a popular tourist destination to make it look like you were a tourist) when your real destination was Seattle. That was both dangerous (as nelsona says you were lucky to get a sleepy officer) and...

    Enter USA while TN1-petition pending at uscis

    You can enter the US on B2 status (as a tourist) as a Canadian with a Canadian passport (no visa required) if you can persuade them that you are a Canadian resident. Since they will probably be able to see your old TN as well as your pending TN in the system they may question about this. In...

    Getting new TN1

    TN status. TN status allows for the possibility that one may be present in the country for a brief period of time before starting the new job.

    Can current TN VISA get cancelled if I apply for a new one?

    Just curious--but it is possibly relevant to the original poster's question--can a Mexican citizen with an unexpired TN VISA apply for a TN I-94 for a new employer at the border? Or does it have to be done by mail?

    TN for Athletics Coach...?

    Bumping this old thread since someone else bumped it yesterday already :) ... Has the process at the border changed? That wasn't how it worked during my TN days (my last TN was just before 9/11/2001) but the procedure seems similar looking at sample letters. All of my border TN letters...
