Hello all, This is my first posting since becoming a usc mid-2012. I have lived in india, my former home country since becoming a usc. I have not worked or earned a penny in either the US or india in all of 2013, relying mainly on family income during this time. I have a friend's US address...

Hello all, Does anybody have names and numbers of agents in Delhi who can assist with filing of a new OCI card application? With my past luck in applying for Indian Passports directly in India and having to go through pure hell, I think I'll take my chances with a reliable agent based in...

I have learnt from an unconfirmed source that if you have acquired American citizenship and wish to apply for an Indian Visa, you must fill out the renunication certificate before you can get the Visa? Is this true? I thought you filled out the RC only when you were applying for an OCI card...

Asking this question (as asked on the OCI forum): Strange as it may sound, but I did hear someone say that it is possible, as a one-time deal. Let's say immediately after you acquire a foreign (in this case American) passport, and you have not yet surrendered your Indian citizenship, you can...

Strange as it may sound, but I did hear someone say that it is possible, as a one-time deal. Let's say immediately after you acquire a foreign (in this case American) passport, and you have not yet surrendered your Indian citizenship, you can go to India on your Indian passport. Once you are...

I know I'm jumping the ship here as I have not yet had my interview. But it is next week in San Jose and as hope springs eternal I'm hoping to get approved (even with a more than six-month one-time absence). So, I have looked high and dry but have not found a single website that lists the oath...

Hello All, Does USPS forward USCIS letters and notification if you have just moved and a letter from USCIS is on the way. Meaning that your change of address AR-11 and USPS change of address happened after the letter from USCIS was already in the mail. Thank you all!

So, I work in San Francisco and have applied for my naturalization in the first week of April. The ASC and USCIS office is no more than half a mile from my office. First, I do not get a fingerprinting notice for well over 30 days. So I call USCIS. I'm asked to wait another 15 days. On day 14 I...

Good Morning Guys, So, I just found out I was supplied incorrect zipcode address for my new apartment that I'm sharing with my roommate. The zipcode is different than what was provided to me when I moved a few days ago. And as luck would have it, I have just filed my N-400 last week using the...

I'm now ready to file my N-400 as I have crossed the 90 day mark before the 5 year anniversary. However, because of some recent professional circumstances, I have moved to another city B within the state of california. But I want to file for my citizenship from my old address of city A which is...

...Frankly, I was really not aware of the 6 month criteria, somehow I was led to believe that I could be out of the country for upto 1 year and be okay. Regardless, I was overseas for 11 months (I had originally only planned a 6 month trip) but some health conditions made me stay longer and...

Hi, What is the condition to maintain GC indefinitely if one is not interested in becoming a USC. I read about folks, esp. older folks who come to the US once a year for a month or two, get the stamp and go back. I think the condition is to stay in the US at least 6 months in a year, but...

Is there any way to find out your last updated address with USCIS? If you happen to move too often and somehow forgot which address was your last address on AR-11, is there any way to find out, or should one just go ahead and fill out a new form with the most current address? Even though you...

Hello all, I'm wondering if I have reset my clock to zero for the whole naturalization (5 years) process. Here are my dates: June 2007 - Got GC Oct 2007 to Mar 2008 - Traveled overseas (just a day less than six months) October 2009 - September 2010 - Traveled overseas (extenuating...

One of my very good friends recently had some serious health issues and is considering going on disability. His lawyer tells him that it's very difficult to get Social Security Disability these days but he wants to try anyway. Is there a possible impact on his current status (GC holder...

Considering so many people ask questions, and frankly, I did try doing a search on that topic but couldn't find anything that was recent. Jackolantern, Triplecitizen and others, so I'm about to file I-131 electronically, but being pressed for time because of some personal urgency, I need to...

A lot of information gets posted and sometimes it’s easy to find, sometimes not. I wish there was a sticky that clarified information once and for all. Here are my specific comments/questions. 1. While I know that you can stay out of the country for less than six months and upto one year...

...and over 3 months later, no word, except for fingerprinting notice which I have complied with. Is there any way out there to get USCIS to expedite issuing a new (or duplicate) I-551 (Green card)? It would not have mattered except that traveling overseas (if there was an emergency) or...

So, while traveling through a third world country, where you don't speak the language (like in Mexico) you get pickpocketed and your GC, DL, cash, credit cards, everything gone in a blink of an eye. You don't speak the language, you cannot easily find help, you are not a US citizen, US...

This posting may not be in the best forum (frankly, I couldn't figure out where to post it) but maybe somebody can give me an idea or point to a few websites where I can get costs for health insurance. My company (consulting) is charging very high monthly premiums, almost $700/month for...
