Just to keep straight records witgh IRS, You can still file a 1040 with income zero entered. But do not file a 1040NR even if you was indeed a non-resident for the tax year 2013.

if it is not a criminal case, then do not mention it.

Well, to be on the safe side, a PR who does want to smoke marihuana in Colorado can purchase no more than 30 grams each time. The laws says one time offense of singe posession of 30 g or less is not deportable. If one does get convicted, then he better stop from that time on...

But for that to happen, one has to be convicted in federal court first but I don't see why department of justice (which is not in charge of immigration any more) wants to prosecute non-citizens only in this matter. If there is no crminal conviction, then it al boils down to Qeustion 22...

roughly 50 days. Except that the last one that took place was only one week after last canceled one. I believed I as so miserable even the receptionist took pity on me and he made soem personal efforts to check into where my A file is. After the process, I sent a thank-you card to him.

My interview was cancelled three times by USCIS and last one I went I was told by the receptionist my files had not arrived yet so that it was cancelled on spot.

If you own or carry firearms, you better becoem a citizen too. Many Firearm violations are depotrable too even crminal penalty is just a slap on the wirst

- I don't want to serve on a jury (I travel a lot/work contract) If you travel a lot overseas, then the risk of physically losing green card will increase (your wallet can be stolen), it is much easier to seek help from embassy when losing a passport than when losing a GC. - I don't plan...

Displomatic immunity extends to spouses and children of many dioplamats. I understand spouses and chidlren who entered USA may have an option not to use it, but can not imagine babies born in USA to diplomats. I think they don't have a choice, either they have immnunity or not ummunity.
