US Citizenship General Discussion	Procedure to apply for US citizenship for a child that is a permanent resident	Hello, Based on USCIS I can send my application for naturalization on June 25th 2012. I also have two children that are permanent resident. Do I send their applications at the same time with mine or do I have to wait? Thank you, Andrea	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2012-06-10 21:20:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Biometrics letter not received, missed appointment	Thank you Sweetdream, I scheduled an InfoPass appointment for yesterday. Went to Charleston, had my fingerprints and picture taken and now am waiting for the interview letter. Thank you again for sharing your experience. Just a short follow-up: Biometrics taken on August 31, letter for the interview sent on September 7th, received on September 13. Interview scheduled for October 16th will last two hours. Will post on or after October 16. Kind regards, Andrea	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2012-09-15 23:57:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Biometrics letter not received, missed appointment	Do not worry, here is why. My biometrics appointment was yesterday and I completely forgot about it. When I remembered later in the evening, I freaked out big time! (the biometrics notice does say "if you miss your appointment your application will be considered abandoned"). So, I went to the biometrics office early this morning, hoping to beg my way in. They took my letter and did not even check for which date it was. I was in and out and had my fingerprints taken without issues. What a relief! So, my advise is just do a walk-in as soon as you can. Thank you Sweetdream, I scheduled an InfoPass appointment for yesterday. Went to Charleston, had my fingerprints and picture taken and now am waiting for the interview letter. Thank you again for sharing your experience.	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2012-09-01 06:59:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Biometrics letter not received, missed appointment	Ah, I'm sorry. That sucks. Fortunately, there is a record of your attempt to find out about the date of the biometrics and you should receive a re-scheduled appointment soon. On the very, very, very off chance that the same thing happens again, take the letter and try for a walk-in biometric appointment, explaining what happened to the guard where the biometrics are done. I suspect they will allow the walk in, especially under those circumstances. Thank you Kathryn, it was nice to hear something nice. All the best, Andrea	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2012-08-20 20:28:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Biometrics letter not received, missed appointment	Hi there, My appointment letter was sent on July 24th and I never received it. On August 2nd I called USCIS inquiring about the letter. On August 9th they sent a copy of that letter for the biometrics which I received on August 13th. My appointment was for August 10th... I sent the notice back along with the reference from the call to re-schedule the appointment. I also called the postal office to make them aware that is IMPORTANT to deliver the mail at the correct address. It has happen a few times that we get other people's mail and ours goes somewhere else... It is so frustrating. Hopefully the next appointment letter will be delivered on time. I AM SOOO FRUSTRATED! Sorry, just venting.	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2012-08-19 20:55:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Name change for our 9-years old son	Thank you so much everybody for your answers. Well, biological father's name is NOT present in my step-son's original (Russian) Birth Certificate. Only mother's name is in the document. We have NO idea if father is alive or not, he left my future wife right after the birth of his son, so the boy thinks I am his father Do you think, we still need to do something about it, or the court will just grant the permission to change the boy's last name? Thanks again for all of your help!!! If you decide to adopt him, that will solve the last name problem.	peonyflowers99	Female	Switzerland	2013-01-29 12:24:00
