Thank you cafeconleche ! I just made appointment at passport agency. I need to submit a proof that has travel date within next 14 days. But I am flying out end of April and really I need US PP urgently because I want to give enough time for Indian visa processing. Do you know what kind of proof...

Hello - I recently became a US citizen and haven't applied for a US passport. I need to travel to India within a month's time. I think I can get a US passport in time, but I don't know what is the procedure to get Indian visa (visitor, OCI etc?). Do I need to surrender my Indian passport to...

smeagol12 - Your husband should call your local representative (found at www.house.gov). You would have a better chance through their office than Baraba B. or Diane F..

You didn't have to go that far as to call SSO. You were here as a non-immigrant when you were 26 (or younger). Selective service doesn't apply to you. Forget it. Your IO is not going to ask for it. Even if you are asked, please point out that you were a non-immigrant until age of 26 and were...

Al Southner - You should know better considering you yourself are a valuable member of this board and help so many people in distress. It's unfair to call someone a parasite especially when they come to this board in distress.

I think Jack was very articulate in his reply from start to finish. But for someone who is new to this forum, some simplification is in order. 1. Your wife will be barred from reentering the US for next 10 years if she leaves the US before she gets a greencard 2. These days it's taking...

You have to take your FP notice and Green Card. This is required for naturalization applicants. Please read the notice carefully. Depending upon ASC, they may or may not ask for your driver's license to enter the facility. If you are going to drive, then you will have to carry it anyway. But...

Jack, I am with you on exercising my right as a citizen. But what exactly are you proposing a person should do if he finds himself in the OP's situation?

Don't worry about CA tax returns. Getting a transcripts from Franchise Board of CA is expensive and takes almost 1.5 months (My personal experience). The residency requirement that Bobsmyth mentioned can be proved in many other ways like utility bills, employment verification letter etc...

May the force be with you

FreedomCA, without a doubt, it is the best ! The best weather, the best scenery and very vibrant culture. I lived in bay area (Palo Alto/Mountain View) for almost 10 years before moving to See-ya-dull last year.

Congratulations FreedomCA. Sigh .. I miss bay area so much. I think I'll move back next year.

Thanks Loitochka. Hope your case starts moving along soon.

Al - Is there a do-it-yourself guide to running for Congress? ;-) I want to thank you for your help, sense of humor and unabashed rhetoric. You keep this forum alive. Also thanks to Jackolantern, TripleCitizen, TheRealCanadian, Bobsmyth, madh4 and others for their help.

Seattle USCIS DO Naturalization interview and Oath experience My citizenship journey is over. I am a naturalized US citizen as of 09/23. Things that I learned from this forum gave me confidence to complete the journey. I must detail my experience for the benefit of the posterity. Seattle...

I seriously doubt if your biometric appointment has ANY relationship with your ticket. I would fight it in court if I believe I have a decent chance of winning. In my opinion, your fears are unfounded.

I successfully passed my naturalization interview today morning. I was in at 7:25am and out by 7:35am. Seattle office is super-efficient. I was also given oath letter for 12:00pm oath today. Good luck to everyone who is waiting.

I don't believe USCIS wants applicants to prove that they were here on non-immigrant status before age of 26. Hence you don't need your H1B or that letter from univ of your F1 status. What makes you think that you need these documents during your interview? And I am sure your file will have...

Superho, you read my mind. I have an interview on 23rd (less than a week to go). Pray for me all ! And good luck.

Being out of status is overlooked if you are applying for a green card based on marriage to a US citizen. Based on very little that you've described about your situation, I think you should not face any problems.
