Hi,
I went for citizenship interview on May 21'08 and I passed the US history exam. But I was given an N-14 form as I was away from the US for close to 18 months on re-entry permit. I applied based on 4 years + 1 day rule. The officer asked me to prove that I maintained residence while I was away as well as submit copies of all pages of passport. He gave me a month to respond. Since I filed my tax as a US resident and I had re-entry permit, the officer said I followed the process to maintain my permanent residency but I may not have fulfilled the continuous residence requirements. I submitted all the documents that the officer wanted and it has been more than 2 months and I have not received a response yet. Did any one of you receive N-14 in Detroit office? If yes, how long did it take for you to get a response? Thanks.
