Thanks guys! I agree, no reason to give them an opportunity to prove themselves!

How can he find out if it HAS in fact been cancelled? The reason he is concerned is because of increased audits of H1-B employers and even though he has not done anything wrong, if the audit comes up with something on the employer, then he may get caught up unneccessarily in a mess...

A friend of miine recently got his GC through a family based petition. Prior to that he was on a H-1B visa. Does the H-1B get cancelled automatically? If not, is it as simple as writing a letter to USCIS asking them to cancel the H-1B?

Employment in India - PIO or OCI better? I am considering taking up employment in India. The company is a branch of an American company. Is it better to be on PIO or OCI. On one of the sticky threads in this same forum posted by PIO1, (http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=209468) I...

Finito! Just wanted to update the thread with the outcome. My wife postponed her oath scheduled for 7/23. She got the letter with her new oath date on 7/20. The oath was scheduled for 8/13. Went just fine. She's happy she decided to go to the wedding.

Are 2nd level IO's able to schedule interviews? How about oaths? My wife tried to reschedule her oath by calling the 1-800 # but they said she has to mail it in or use the drop box at Irving center.

My wife had an info-pass appt. this morning. The receptionist told her she cannot see an IO for re-schuduling her Oath, and that she can either mail it in to the DO or put it in the drop box. So, she dropped it off in the drop-box. The wait contines... in the mean time we will go enjoy the...

The return address on the envelope is the NBC in Missouri, but I called the 1-800 # twice and both times they said to mail it to DO. McTavish: The letter does not give any instructions on WHERE to send it to, it just says to retuen it as soon as possible.

My wife got the Oath letter from NBC in Missouri. I called up the 1-800# and they said to mail reschedule request to DO(Irving, Dallas). I don't fully trust what the front line customer service people say. Who do I mail it to? DO(Irving, TX) or NBC(Missouri)?

If my wife meets an IO through Infopass, can the IO give her a same day/ next day oath? Or will it be the same outcome as mailing (Option#1) a re-schedule request in? Dallas DO has 2 oath ceremonies everyday, why don't they just schedule EVERYONE for the same day or the next day oath. It...

There's one everyday in Irving, Dallas. In fact twice a day. But I think they send the Nat. Cert.s to be printed ahead of time(IO told my wife she will need new photos because her photos are already used up on the Nat. Cert. sent off to Print) and it shows the date of the oath/Naturalization...

My preference for Option#2 is that - in person, there's less chance of USCIS misplacing the file or getting lost in a stack of rubble. Has anyone currently in this forum requested an Oath Delay? Please post your experiences.

I think some people have experienced much longer delays and headaches. I am beginning to think that maybe Option#2 is better. Wait for the letter, schedule infopass appointment at Irving, take new photos, and request a postponed oath in person. dms1: Yes, Irving, Dallas. Oath is at...

I had a bad feeling, I knew this was going to happen. My wife talked to an IO who told her that her Oath is scheduled for 7/23. We have a trip planned to Canada that week for a family wedding on 7/24! Obviously, there's no way she can take the oath, get her Passport and travel the same day...

So if OCI is just a permanent visa, does that mean that citizens of other countries have same privileges as Indians that take up US citizenship? Meaning that, any non-Indian citizen can buy non-agricultural property in India? I thought there were some restrictions on that.

Just curious. How many in this forum have opted for OCI instead of the PIO card? I don't want to have to apply for a visa every so often to travel to India. Plus, I'd like to buy a retirement home in India someday (if I can afford it)

Its true, men in uniform still make me uneasy, just by habit. I didn't want to worry about explaining my tickets or run-ins with the law during the immigration process. On the flip side, I have become more of an *** to people that are asses. Don't mind getting a little citation for indulging in...

I just received my US passport. But I dont want to lose ties to India. I own property in INdia, and will probably buy another one. Plus I dont want to apply for a visitors visa every time. What is better, OCI or PIO? I read up a little on both, but wanted to hear from forum members what...

I looked up the CGI-Houston website. All it says is to send the passport in for a cancellation stamp. Is there a form and a fee for it, do I need to send in a copy of my Naturalization certificate; or do I just mail the PP to Houston Consulate with a cover letter?
