Yes, I realize that and actually it will be 120 days next Monday, May 13, 2013. The problem is filing 1447(b) costs in excess of $300, which we do not have. I've also considered requesting case assistance, via DHS-7001, from the Ombudsman and writing to my Senator for assistance but have heard the turn around time for a response from each is about 3 months.
I'm actually considering filing a new N-400 under the 5 year rule (with I-912 fee waiver request attached). However, my current case is still pending. Can one file a new N-400 application if the original is still pending? If so, would the original N-400 application have to be withdrawn?
I just did a Google search for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York in regards to a fee waiver for filling a civil lawsuit.
