Questions guys: My grandparents' applications (parents of US citizen) hit a huge roadblock now, they were placed in "administrative processing in accordance with section 221(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act." We had contacted a US senator and a congressman to inquire the status of the...

Guys: A friend of mine who has a valid F1 visa recently married a US citizen and she changed her last name to her husband's last name and it was reflected on their marriage certificate. Now she wants to change her name with the DMV/BMV and the folks there didn't allow her to do that, instead...

not yet, I think the package was sent out about a week ago.

applying parents by 2 sponsors guys: My mom and my stepdad are applying for my grandparents to come to the US via consular processing. My mom is a naturalized citizen and my stepdad is a natural born citizen. My mom is a house wife so my stepdad is the main bread winner of the family. So on...

c'mon, why don't you just quit lying and tell the folks you are the "friend of you" who recently became a US citizen and had questions about possessing US passport as a dual citizen? it's nothing you should be ashamed of and u ain't fooling nobody!

I updated my info with the SSA at the oath ceremony - the SSA sent 3 reps there to accommodate us, they provided us with pre-filled forms and pens before the ceremony and we returned the finished forms to them after the ceremony (they only took a glance at our naturalization certificates to...

I feel bad for the person/family whose quota was consumed by you (I take that back if your withdrawal can redistribute your visa to another qualified applicant)

keep in mind that not all CIS offices allow "early" biometric though. Best wishes to you

Yellow letter is a computer generated letter printed on yellow paper (same for everyone regardless) USCIS sent out to some, not all N400 applicants after their biometric before the interview, basically telling them to bring their driver licenses or state issued ID to the interview. So don't...

if you change your kids' names after your naturalization, then you will need to pay the court for your kids' name change applications (and wait for them to be processed) AND the USCIS (citizenship certificate) for updating their names on this important document. Just so you know, ONLY the...

congratulations! Welcome to the club :D

I think you need to be very careful of what you put in part 1. Because if you forget or choose not to put down a name/names correctly, for example, in your case, middle initial instead of the full middle name in the "current FULL name" blank, if the officer finds out at your interview that you...

Something similar happened to me. So in 1.A put your COMPLETE middle name, in 1.b put your name EXACTLY as it appears on your permanent resident card (the middle initial). The rule of thumb is for part 1.b, you have to put down whatever it is printed on your GC, per instruction, even if it's...

If you request a name change on your N400, it has to be processed through the federal court. So my guess is the ceremony will either has to be in a court or be precised by a federal court judge. Even though including a name change on your naturalization may delay your case a bit (it is really...

for someone like me, whose country of origin doesn't not allow dual citizenship (I think you can probably figure it out which one it is), becoming a US citizen is a dream comes true probably b/c I love the USA and enjoy the right to travel to many countries visa-free. My dad, who is a citizen...

I, like others, highly recommend name change via naturalization. I did and I am happy now :)

maybe you shared a name with someone who got deported for homicide?

That's not true. The folks sitting at the front desk at the local CIS office can give you the most detailed and up-to-date information about your case (assuming you applied without an attorney), at least that's true for me. I was asked to submit additional documents after my interview and I...

I know some states have free legal clinics or places where you can seek legal advice for free. Best of luck to you.
