Good morning everyone, Quick question and something I heard yesterday: is it true that at the time of the citizenship test you are also invited to the oath ceremony? If you pass the test that is? My thinking is that they've automated the test process and generate the results on the spot...

Hi everyone, I would like to ask that we share some experiences about the oath and the questions asked by an immigration judge, or citizenship judge for that matter. Most of us here are working in the US while maintaining Canadian residency and I thought this kind of discussion would be...

Hi everyone, I will be going to the consulate for an interview to obtain the L1 visa. I already have INS approval notice and now I need to go and get the stamp in my passport. Here\'s my situation: - been in the US for 7 years, from 1991 until Dec 1998 on F-1 visa - there was a 6 months...

Graduated May 1998, the law states that I am in status for 60 days following the graduation date. That would bring me to July 1998. I stayed until Dec 5, 1998, which means a total of 194 days. Was I out of status for purposes of the 3 year ban? I understand that if you leave the US before...

I was speaking with my parents today and found out (after living in the US for 8 years and Canada for 4!!!!!) that my great-grandfather was a US citizen, he lived in the US for 5 years, had property and so on. Do I have any chance here? My grandparents have passed away.... Thanks.
