Hi Guys,

I'm glad that I found this website. I never thought I should worry about my citizenship, but after reading most of the messages from here and as well as from US citizen forum, I'm getting a little bit worried. I got my green card through asylum several years ago, and now I'm getting close to apply my citizenship. But the problems is, I lost my National Passport right before my Asylum approval after I used it to open a bank account. I never traveled outside US since I came here, though I have applied RTD for a couple of times. I got a new RP last year and haven't got a chance to use it. I only have some copies of my passport, but I don't have the original any more (ir expired long time ago, it has the VISA i used to enter US). I could apply a new passport since and I don't think there's a problem for getting it. Is that a national passport necessary in the citizenship interview? Should I apply a new one from my country's embassey? Anybody got the similar experience? Thanks for any advice.
 
I did not had the passport upon asking the passport at Citizenship interview I told the IO that I don't have NP but I have RTD and IO was OK with that.NP is just needed to verify the travel dates.
 
Thanks for your reply. I haven't traveled outside of US at all since I came here, so there's nothing to verify by the IO:) . Do they have record of the last time you entered to US?

That should be on your file ,You must have told them the port of entry. At the interview your whole immigration history will be in front of IO.
Good luck .
