Canada	Don't you love it when...	QUOTE (BermyCat @ Jun 18 2009, 06:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had to do a tonne of running around today. I did my drivers test, got my car emmissions tested, and got my Gerogia "tag". The tag office even sent me off tot he police station to get some kind of VIN verifaction form filled out. Despite all the running around, I had a great day! Every single person that helped me today was super nice. Even the police officer filling out the form was great. He told me some stories about friends from Canada and did a very passable maritimer accent when relaying their parts of the dialogue. The police officer even printed out a booklet of safety information and welcomed me to the city. ~ Catherine Awwww that's so nice isn't it!!

I just got off the phone with USCIS, and they said I can skip removal of conditions and apply for Citizenship now based on military service, and have the fees waived...?! I'm hoping this is correct, but it sounds almost too good to be true....so I think I'll call back and ask a supervisor. The only reason I'm in such a rush to get my citizenship is it's very hard to advance without it, so I've been trying to find out what the process is once you're in the armed forces. A few people told me you have to wait a year after you join, but the USCIS agent seemed convinced otherwise, so I guess I'll find out soon... That would be awesome, I really hope it's true for you!

In the next sentence you are pondering eating KFC and buttermilk biscuits Of course if you eat poutine everyday or KFC, that's unhealthy or whatever.
