    NSC / Chicago DO Interview experience

    Don't you need to submit the oath appointment letter before they let you in for the actual oath? Have you confirmed whether the interview result (N652?) is good enough?

    DUI and Citizenship - Very worried..Can't sleep

    cjoshi, have you talked to an attorney regarding your appeal? What is his/her opinion? Please do not get completely influenced by the conclusory tone of many of the postings here. Though they may have been made in good faith, I would recommend that you consult an attorney, and a good one at that...

    N-400 in process - can I move back to India?

    If you can work it out such (with your overseas employer) that you are going overseas on a temporary assignment you should be ok. After you get your citizenship it will not matter. Though many people on this thread have indicated the absurdity of what you are attempting to do now; most, if...

    Are you supposed to sign the Nat. Certificate?

    If I am not mistaken it is not legally allowed to copy the Natz. Certificate. Were you able to confirm that it is ok to do so for the I-130/131 application? BTW, what is the I-130 application for?

    Los Angelese Oath Ceremony

    Hi Guys, Today we (spouse and I) had our oath ceremony in Los Angeles. There were 4000 people in the afternoon batch and 4000 in the morning batch - ours was in the afternoon. It was an anti-climactic event. The appointed time was 1:00 PM. We reached there at 12:55 PM (terrible traffic on the...

    N-400 denial: do you acknowledge or not?

    Calm down Valiko, my intent was not to be chauvinistic, I was only suggesting that your husband being a US Citizen may have some contacts and/or know some ways of going about this issue. Good Luck for whichever path you select!!!

    F1 q

    There are a couple of issues here that jump out. Firstly, I think a grandfather clause, if one would exist, would only apply to you if you had already applied for your GC, and the new law came into effect after your application date. Since you cannot apply for GC right away (can you?), at least...

    N-400 denial: do you acknowledge or not?

    For all it is worth, I think it may be time for you to consult a competent immigration attorney to truly get an idea of the best (most effective) course of action to get you your desired results. If this not too personal a question, isn't your husband who is a US Citizen able to guide/help...

    Question on US citizenship and Tax

    I think if you take copies of the tax returns of the individual/family member who filed you as a dependent you should be fine.

    Received Oath Letter - Santa Ana, CA

    Just an update that my spouse received her oath letter today, as I had hoped. We both have been given the same oath date and time - August 17th. Any idea on whether we can take our kids (below 7 years) and can they be seated somewhere safe or would it be better not to take them along? Thanks.

    first Interview cancelled 4 months still waiting.

    Many people have had luck contacting their Senator's office. You may want to send your Senator's office a detailed description of your issue, including events, dates and copies of any correspondence you may have. The more details the better, even possibly using names of the people you have...

    Received Oath Letter - Santa Ana, CA

    Hi Guys, Today I received my Oath Letter in the mail. The strange thing is that my spouse's letter did not come at the same time. Now in the grand scheme of things, I know that this is fairly normal, however it was my case which was more complicated than my spouse's. I had left my GC employer...

    Any cases where Citizenship was denied after passing interview

    Here are the answers 1. I got my GC 5 years ago - March 2002 2. I was able to locate my tax returns for the past 4 years i.e. from 2003 onwards. I did not have my 2002 return with me during the interview. From my experience it was clear to me that the DO wanted to look at the 2002 tax return...

    Naturalization Interview

    In our case even though my spouse and I had our appt times at 9:35 am (we both had the same appt times), and we got in at 9:05 am, my wife was called in almost right away, around 9:15 am and her interview took about 15 to 20 minutes (I believe dependent wife's are easy interviews because their...

    Traffic tickets and naturalization (threads merged)

    ...Besides I believe what this question really means is: Part 10 D Good moral character - has a question "have you ever committed AN ARRESTABLE (if that's a word)" crime or offence for which you were not arrested"? OR "have you ever committed a crime or offence which warrants an arrest...

    Traffic tickets and naturalization (threads merged)

    I had two tickets a couple of years ago - one for jumping a light (actually I was beyond the white stop line on a T-Junction on a slow Sunday morning where there is no traffic - the officer still gave me a ticket - cost me $375 and I attended Traffic School for it as well). The other ticket was...

    Thanks Warlord. You mention that people have been deported from the interview. In my case I have already recived the notification (N652) that I have passed my interview. My attorney also confirmed that this should not be a problem in my case as the situation was out of my control. You also...

    Travel out of the US between Interview and Oath

    Hi Guys, Would appreciate some help on this question as well. Since our interview is over and we are expecting our Oath letter, I was wondering if we (spouse and I) could travel out of the US for a period of 5 to 6 weeks. The concern I have is if we get the oath letter when we are out of the...

    Any cases where Citizenship was denied after passing interview

    Thanks for your responses. I guess you guys are right and that I may be worrying needlessly. Tak, you are right in that if they had any intent to deny or wanted further adjusdication they would have checked the "Cannot make a decision..." instead of checking the "Congratulations..." checkbox on...
