    Question on signing the naturalization certificate

    Yeah the wording is a little confusing, USCIS doesn't want the excitement to end even after you get the certificate :rolleyes: , IMHO I think you should just sign your full name on the certificate in cursive and forget about it. Good Luck! v_m

    Passport timeline

    That is a little abnormal. I applied on 11/29/05 in Chicago for normal processing and received it on 12/21/05. I guess it depends on the backlog at the various processing centers. I am glad that you at least know that they are processing it. Did you check the online status? Mine got updated only...

    Need 2nd opinion on answering 'Good Moral Character' questions in N400

    I had two traffic tickets that I listed on my application and I answered the questions just like you did. Yes to #16 and NO to 15,17 and 18. The interviewing officer didn't seem to care about the traffic violations. He just asked me if I have ever appeared before a judge for any criminal activity.

    I filed mine with my wife too, and only I got the missing evidence part in my receipt. I had two traffic tickets listed, BUT my wife also had one traffic ticket listed.

    gurel, I live in a southwest suburb of Chicago (Plainfield)...about 20 minutes from the Naperville ASC. But they still ended up setting my fingerprint appointment at another location in Chicago (45 minutes away). Anyways, such a long wait for the fingerprint letter does seem odd, although I...
