I am a bit confused about when one can apply for citizenship. I became a permanent resident on July 11, 1997 and filed for Citizenship with a priority date on April 11, 2002. I received an appointment and had my FP done. My questions are:
1. Did I apply within the grace period? I thought I was fine until I read the experiences of some board members here
2. If INS proceeds with the processing and schedules an interview, does it mean that this issue is not a problem anymore or do they wait until the interview date and then say, "Now you have to go back to the end of the line and go through this process all over again!"
Thanks
