N-400 Part 10 E

[fromDetroit]

I submitted my N-400 Jun 11, and I received a letter last week July 23 to appear for interview in Sept.
My question is I was in a removal proceeding 2001 because my Asylum case was denied because I applied after one year, the IJ terminated the case because I was still maintaining my F1 visa, I was in H1 Visa when I hit the DV 2003 and AOS approved.
The question is should I answer Yes on question 28 of part 10 E.
if yes what should I do since I already filed with No.

Please advise

Seeking for relief of removal proceeding means you applied for some kind of waiver under the law. Since your case was terminated since you still maintained F1 status the answer would still be NO since you didn't apply for any relief or protection.

If you were detained by police or by ICE, then yes it counts as detention.

 

[fromDetroit]

the detention was not in the US and was not by police but by my home country regime security personnel ??

It counts as being detained, but I wouldn't worry about disclosing it unless it led to something more serious such as an arrest and conviction.

 

[fromDetroit]

should I disclose it since I already list it in my asylum case which was denied back in 2001 ?
I answered No to the question 16 part 10.
I believe the officer will go through the application and confirm all my answer in the interview.

If you previously disclosed it during asylum case, then disclose it during interview with IO if you haven't done so on N-400 application.
