sucks man, I'm unemployed and the few savings that I have, are for gas to go to nursing school, I cannot afford to spend $700 on citizenship fee, why does it have to cost so god damn much? where does that money go? why so much? how did they come up with that amount? It should be cheaper now, especially considering how the economy is, no wonder, there are millions of legal residents, who choose not to become citizens. I had read that is very difficult to get approved for the waiver, but at least I wanted to give it a shot, I had nothing to lose
I have been a permanent resident since November 2005, but I have been unemployed since 2011, I could never come up with $700, so I put it off, but I really want to become citizen now, I live with my parents, and they won't help me even though maybe they could, I have never actually asked them, but I know they would laugh in my face. I just wish I could find a job, but I keep applying everywhere, and nothing, I survive from the student refunds that I get from college, and I only use that money for traveling expenses, and anything school related, if you have been unemployed for so long, is very unlikely someone will hire you, especially if you have a Spanish last name, even mcdonalds or places with minimum wage won't hire me
such is life, I guess I will continue being a permanent resident until I can find a job
I was denied for bullshit reasons, i don't know if i should even bother to apply again
- you did not provide acceptable evidence that you receive, supporting evidence a letter from a federal or state agency, letter should show that you currently receive means test benefits (I only marked this option, because my brother is receiving benefits, but because he is my brother, I cannot use him as a relevant member )
-household income below 150%, you did not send enough evidence, you must send evidence, we need a copy of your latest income tax (I sent my latest income tax which is from 2011), if you did not file an income tax return, send evidence of all funds received in past month ( I did send my bank statement from last month wtf), example pay stubs (I'm not working), letter from individuals providing funds to your household (not receiving anything), unemployment compensation (I'm not receiving unemployment), the only income that I have is the one in my bank account, I included my bank statements and FAFSA, I included all the money and refunds that I receive from college (which is the only money I receive from ANYONE)
- a fee waiver for your request is financial hardship, you did not provide enough supporting evidence, evidence of your income and taxes ( I have no income duh ), including real estate, property, cash (I don't have real estate, I don't have properties, my only possession is a car), checking or savings accounts (I provided this evidence), stocks, bonds ( I don't have this)
Nothing but bullshit reasons to deny my application, only reasons I could even get approved is to be receiving mean tested benefits, which I don't because I don't need to I live with parents, I don't think I even quality for food stamps or things like that
such is life
