may112010, Since they have not asked me to apply for the surrender certificate, neither I got any email from them to send them any additional fee. I am not going to do it. This new rule could be for new applicant. I would rather save my money if I can. Surrender certificate is of no use to...

Any updates???? Guys, Its been close to 3 weeks now and no updates since they received my application and scanned photo/signature. In early March, they used to finish the whole process in 3 weeks. What is happening in Houton office? Other consulate are processing it in no time...

OCI Application Applied: 04/05/2010 Received: 04/06/2010 Photo/signature scanned: 04/09/2010 Since then the Status shown is: Underprocess Why the hell they slowed down the process. Is this due to the IPL fever.......

gcdetails, As per my understanding, the IO will request your file twice from the NSC before considering the file as "LOST" and make his decision on your case based on the temporary file they might have created at the time of your interview. My wife's file was misplaced for a while before...

Actually, in the form itself, they don't even ask how many days you were outside of USA? The question is whether you traveled outside USA? Yes or NO.

Got the point. I don't mind saying "YES". I hope they don't unnecessarily delay things for oath ceremony based on your visit outside USA.

I don't think Bahamas is considered as US territory. It's an independent island country used to be under England before. While leaving, immigration did not stamp anything on the passport. They only scanned Green card while going and coming back from Bahamas. The number of days we were out...

My wife is having her oath at the end of this week. Last month, we were on a cruise trip to Bahamas for 3 days. Should we write Yes or NO to the question where they asked Any trip outside of the US? Is writing "Yes" delay your oath or not? Please advise.........

Spiderman003, Good to know that at least your file is at right place now. I also called yesterday and inquired about my oath ceremony. The 2nd level officer said that today my file has been sent for scheduling an oath. I am hoping to get my oath letter in a week or so. Its now more than 103...

You may be right WBH. Seems like he decided to come and sit, one he realized that this case is with him and he has been delaying it for no reason even though the file is with him and never replied to the letter we wrote him.

Inforpass Appointment Done with my wife's infopass appointment today. The same IO was sitting on the window who took my wife's interview (Maybe he does not want other officers to know that he has been sitting on this file for a month and not done anything with it). Before we said anything, he...

Spiderman03: I am just wondering how inefficient this USCIS system is? How can they give you different answer, every time you call them. Now I am confused whether the transfer of my file on a particular date is true or not. The 2nd level officer instructed me to go to your local office and...

spiderman03 Did you get any date from him as to what date they send the file to local DO office. I set-up an Infopass appointment to see if I can make them move a bit to get my wife's oath letter. Good luck

Both me and my wife got our fingerprints taken on the same day and in about 5-6 weeks, we both scheduled for an interview. Just on the date of the interview, we found out that my file was with them but her file wife was missing. Actually, we both scheduled for our interview, 20 days ahead of our...

Thanks spiderman03. Even though I came to know that they send my wife's file to the local office on Jan 11, I have not yet received any oath letter from them. I have now taken infopass appointment for Feb. 12th to see if I can personally ask for an oath letter from them. Does someone has...

I contacted 1-800 number again, the 2nd level officer told me that my wife's file reached our local office on Jan 11th, 2010. Which is about 60 days after the successful completion of her interview. It's good to know that at least they got the file. I am hoping that they will take come time to...
