Hello,
I become eligible to apply for citizenship in the last week of September'09.
I was on my F-1 followed by H-1 until 28yrs old. Based on what I read in this forum, technically I don't need the selective services letter. However, just to be pro-active (and since I have some time on hand), I sent the SS office a complete packet of my documents. I was under the impression that I would have to repeatedly prod them multiple times...to get the letter. I figured, by the time all that happens, it will be my interview time (which might be some time next year...assuming every thing else goes smoothly).
Surprisingly, I got the letter from them today stating that I am exempt from registering. Now my question is if I have my interview sometime next year (again assuming all other prior steps complete quickly), would this letter still be valid at that time?
Thanks,
Speedy
