Q2 (Apr-June) 2008 N400 Filers Tracker

I have received letter from USCIS - Lee Summit MO, reg Case File Review Notice / Interview Document Check List asking me to bring the following documents at the time of interview. Apart from other documents on following documents needs your comments and suggestions.

1) If you taken a trip outside the US that lasted for six months or more since becoming a Permenent Resident bring evidence your did not abandon your residence or terminate your employment in th US nor abandon your US abode(IRS return transcript or federal tax returns, rent or mortgage payments, utility bills etc).

My situation is as under:
I came here on GC family sponsored in the year June 2002 and stayed here for 4 months and then applied for Re entry permit left USA in Nov 2002. During this short stay I worked in a small company and filed my tax return for the year 2002 and I mentioned in the tax return my sister home address as my permenent address and for all my correspondence and GC purpose this address was my permenent address. For the year 2003 I did not file tax return as I was not here , however, this address used to be my permenent address. since I was staying with my sister house I did not pay any utility bills etc. How can I show evidence to the question that I did not abandon my residence in US?

Question No: 2

If you have taken a trip outside US that lasted 6 months or more since becoming permenent resident bring an original IRS1722 letter listing tax information for the past five years

My Situation here:

I came back in June 2004 and filed my tax returns regularly from 2004 I have tax return copies for 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 (4 years) the 5th year tax return i.e. for the year 2003, I did not file tax return 2003. However, I have filed tax return for the year 2002, Is it sufficient to show last 4 years tax returns and what should I tell at the time of interview.

I appreciate alll if you can guide me with your experienced suggestions and guidance.

Thanks

Narayana,

I think your questions are something which you should perhaps depend upon an immigration attorney help to answer this in a proper way. Board inputs may be relevant but you should get professional help.

Thanks.

Hi Lisa,

What is the 800 number you call. The one I called, they basically read off my status from the USCIS website. Could you please share some information as to how request status from them to get respond?

Thanks.

Another quick question:

I heard that in some locations, both Interview and Oath will be done on the very same day. I am not sure whether the same rule applies at OK DO. I appreciate if some one can tell what is the procedure followed at OK DO?

Thanks

Hi Lisa88,

I am in the same timeline as you but have not yet got the IL. I was checking the USCIS website for case tracking and it has no update till now. Did your case status get updated with the information that they mailed you a IL? When was the IL mailed to you? BTW, what Service Center / DO are you applying with. I am at TSC.

Thanks in advance.

the web status is useless and does not get updated except sometimes with an error message. they either mailed it or she called and they told her
