    How do I prove that I'm not a US citizen?

    Schengen countries will let you enter on an expired Schengen passport. You should have no problems at the airport if you take a direct flight to Germany. Since Ireland is not a party to Schengen it would be best if you changed your flight to fly Lufthansa or other Schengen country carrier.

    Why USC?

    Interesting thread. For me, becoming a USC was a no brainer. I come from a country not opposed to dual citizenship (they do not recognize dual citizenship but they do not take your citizenship away when you naturalize elsewhere). I think if my country of origin took away my citizenship I...

    re-entering the USA with green card and restraining order

    I'd say occasionally until you become a US citizen is the best bet. If the person doing secondary noted your record you might not be harassed at all. Just do not violate the restraining order - that will put you in a lot of trouble.

    Australian Visa - GC + NP

    4 years ago I needed to get quickly to Australia for business reasons. eVisitor was not yet available then so I flew to Washington DC and was issued a visa on the spot. I carried only my green card and company letter stating I need to be there immediately. Last year I went to Australia for...

    I got my cetrificate of citizenship. Can my child still travel on his green card?

    The only legal way for him to enter the US is to use his US passport. His green card is no longer valid. USCIS/CBP systems may not have updated to reflect that fact so he might get away with this but I would strongly advise against trying. If you're going to visit his country of origin you...

    need an advice , sponsor brother

    He should get a letter from the school's principal confirming his enrollment for the current and next year. That hopefully will show his ties to the country of origin much better than any document you may send him.

    Overstayed a Couple Days and Denied H1b

    Perhaps it was a L-1 and not H1-B. Getting H1-B approved would require a college degree.

    Atlanta GA - N-400 Timeline

    Congratulations! You don't need to have SSS confirmation; you were older than 26 in 2004 - that's what counts (PR date). I assume you have never been out of status between 1991 and 1999 - if you were you'd have to register.

    Company acquired right after GC - any issue with naturalization

    I had the same issue - my company was acquired shortly after I became a permanent resident. I put two lines in my employment history: GC date - acquisition date: employer name 1, address acquisition date - present: employer name 2 (acquisition), same office address I got asked "Do you...

    Mystery of trips more than 6 months but less than a year? Any real expert on this?

    It will be easier for her to prove her residency ties were unbroken. She has several things working in her favor: - her immediate family remained in the US (you) - she was studying (not working) - she filed her taxes as a resident - she maintained residence in the US (perhaps she even was on...

    Mystery of trips more than 6 months but less than a year? Any real expert on this?

    You'll need to provide much more evidence as a proof of maintaining the residency ties than a tax return which can be filed from anywhere in the world.

    Mystery of trips more than 6 months but less than a year? Any real expert on this?

    When you stay abroad for more than 180 days it is presumed you have broken your residency for naturalization purposes. The presumption can be overcome but it is hard, subjective (depends on the IO reviewing your case) and, in some cases, impossible.
