I received my US citizen last year. Now I want to sponsor my parents from China. From the list of item required, I need a copy of my birth certificate. My parents told me they do not have it. In China, in order to get your social card, you have to turn in your birth certificate...

Link to the standard 100 question list can someone be kind enough to post a link to the standard 100 question list for the US Citizenship interview. thanks in advance

My apllication has been processed! My lawyer just called me and told me that my application has been processed and I am approved. She said that I do not required the final interview. Now, I have to send in a few more pictures and they will work on my actually green card and mail it to me...

Yes, never received the plastic card. They sent my CR plastic card to my old address. by the time my lawyer found out, we had to go in for the PR. Now my PR is about to expire in 3 months. So if I don't get a plastic card, then will have to renew the stamp every year.

the approval date from the CR, right? this is the case according to my lawyer. my lawyer said I can apply for US Citizen now. although the N-400 form ask for the copy of the PR card, back and front. or the application for the PR. I didn't have either, so I made a copy of the pending stamp...

In California, you have two stages of PR status. the first is the CR, which is the conditional resident(a 2 year temporary green card). you get this status for two years, after that you have to go back in for another interview. and if you are approved, they remove the CR and give you the PR...

Hopefully, they will just process the application and if everything is fine, they can just send me the physical card. And I am done. since I am married to a US Citizen, I can start my application for US Citizen next month. Funny that I am already applying for the US Citizen and I haven't...

about the interviews stuff, I think the customer service don't know what they are talking about. for the application process. When you get your stamp on your passport (the date that you got the stamp), the INS's next step is to process your application, and then send you the physical green...

ah, nice. so California it's about 9months to 12months. thanks.

The whole process from application to oath. how long on the average? Timeline application: application notification: fingerprint notice: fingerprints: interview notice: interview: oath: thanks for your inputs.

It's the 800 CIS customer service. It's on their website. The lawyer didn't call them. The lawyer was notified by the CIS about the update via fax. then my lawyer called me. I believe in Texas it's more lenient than California. California law is a little more strict.

jllag1, I hear you. the 1st lady customer service was somewhat harsh. I just asked a simple question nicely and she start giving me this authority tone. Telling me, the stamp doesn't mean jack, I don't have a permanent resident status, they can take it away anytime... after they look at my...

update status just got a call from my lawyer, the CIS is starting to process application of 4/8/03.

Yes, the 800 CIS customer service. I called and the 1st lady said I need the case receipt number. Can't check the status without the receipt. She told me they are currently processing the Feb of 2003 application. I told her, I already got the I-551 stamp and I am just waiting for my plastic...

I believe we are talking about the same thing. I did have the last inteview and I got the stamp. That's before the changes in the new CIS (before it was called the INS). When I did the interview last year on July of 2003 I got the stamp and now only have to wait for the Plastic Card. I was told...

still waiting. The wait could be a bit longer. At least here in California. Currently, the CIS are still processing the FEB 2003 application. My application was submitted on APRIL 2003 of last year and got the stamp. Looks like they will not get to my application until this MAY of 2004. It...
