Just FYI:
With an InfoPass today, I went to my District Office to find out about the status of my case. The officer, who assisted me, checked if any decision was entered into the system & astonishely asked me if I already had an interview. I said yes and provided him the interview results form. He took the sheet & said, "I'm going to find out the situation on the application". He left & showed up five minutes later & told me he could not see the officer because he was on the phase of an interview. He could not interrupt him. He made a copy of the result sheet & then told me he would leave a note for the interviewer officer to look into it. He suddenly prompted the vibe saying "you should not be making inquiring about this case until if you do not hear from us for over 120 days". I said "OK, sir! I just wondered since he had said that he would be making a decision on the case on the Friday of that week". Then he said, "You need to make an inquiry only after May 20". I said, "Copied, sir! Thank you". That was my horrible InfoPass matinee! If God could just make an end to this psychological torture...

Wait a minute, when you say sign your fullname in your photo which is stuck onto the certificate of naturalization.............................
Do you mean they use one of the pictures you filed with your N-400 (ask you to sign it during the interview on the front of the picture) and stick it onto your Certificate later on during the Oath ceremony?
Just wondering because I think I just wrote my name in print at the back of the pictures during the N-400 application.


The certificate of naturalization has two signatures.
One on Photo you did submit with N400 application form.
Another in the certificate itself.

That's why USCIS ask to use light tip pencil, or ballpoint pen in the back of photo.

That is fast for the US Passport. Did you apply for the passport at a post office? I am just wondering if it makes any difference where you submit your application. Also if you have a passport do you need a " passport card"?

To all those who had done the Oath Ceremony............... what is this I hear about the signature on the picture and the signature on the Certificate ? Something to do with do not just sign your picture but to write your name down in full because that is how it will be on the Certificate. Thanks.


I did apply from one of Post Office as regular service.
You don't need passport card if you have passport book.
But since I have been carried my green card for so long, I feel much better to carry another "card" in my wallet. whistling.gif

For signature, you have to sign your fullname in your photo, which is stick in the certificate of naturalization.
Probably you have to do same signature for US passport application.
Some people have to sign the photo during the interview.
But in my case, I have to do it at the oath ceremony because I changed my legal name through naturalization.

Certificate holder ?
Man, I just bought self-adhesive laminated pouch for letter size, then seal the certificate of naturalization with it.
Of course, I did scan it and saved it as encrypted PDF file. whistling.gif

So I won't have any problem with the certificate of naturalization with moisture or anything. Except fire?

LOL at march...great. I have no patience. I don't think there is one person on here that has a single ounce of patience with the USCIS. I know, I know it's the USCIS. I'm just venting


We need meditation classes... blink.gif
Probably USCIS needs to provide life-time membership with USCIS for rest of life for free. whistling.gif

I'm thinking of getting the job from USCIS since I became a US citizen. devil.gif

Good, Lyuba!
I also requested US Passport Card since my wallet has empty spot for my old green card.
I kind of feel that I'm not safe without carrying the card since I carried my green card and/or passport/I-94 for so long. whistling.gif

Hey all,
Just wanted to report - I took the oath this morning at the court in downtown New York. It wasn't as "festive" a ceremony as I expected. The court staff were extremely helpful and took great care to explain patiently to everyone, what they needed to do.



Congratulation, NYC_Prospect !
I'm sooooo happy for you! kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

Finally you're done with USCIS, and deal with the State Department for US Passport. whistling.gif

I think USCIS St. Paul district office should have oath ceremony from the cave in underworld of Minneapolis/St. Paul.
I saw that from PBS documentary long time ago, and it was impressive.

I think NickD complained about it in the past.
If I remember correctly, St. Paul district office have Oath Ceremony schedule frequency something like once in every quarter or something like that.
I might be wrong, but they schedule big, big oath ceremony in stadium or something like that, and last time it was delayed further because RNC presidential party held there.
So far, I think St. Paul have some worst coorperation between USCIS and Federal Court regarding oath ceremony schedule.

They can give sugar or sweet, then parents will be suffered with hyper mode of kids since the parents will stay night and sleep closed to those kids.

I came to U.S. after 26 years old, so I don't have experience with Selective Service.
But it may take up to a month to get the response from Selective Service, so you may request it as soon as possible.

Lyuba, are you ready for Oath Ceremony this week ? reading.gif reading.gif reading.gif reading.gif reading.gif
You have oath ceremony on this Friday.

QUOTE (2bornot2b @ Dec 27 2008, 09:36 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Thanks Moonhunt.

Btw, on my list of items to bring to the interview is 2 pictures. What are those for?


Just in case that adjudicator - USCIS interview officer - doesn't like photos you did submit.
So you have to bring new photos, which is different from the one you did submit.
Because of various reason, the adjudicator may think the photo may not qualify under the criteria they have.
Or they may lost photos. whistling.gif

QUOTE
Question for those who has already finished the Oath ceremony or going to take their Oath soon.
After the interview, you get a letter to go to the Oath ceremony. Then what is next?


Wait for oath ceremony. And don't get ticketed for speed or anything. ^^
From the back of Oath notification letter, you will find a couple of questions you have to answer.
You should answer those questions at the day of oath ceremony, and sign the bottom at the oath ceremony.
Those questions will be only applied for the period between the interview day and oath ceremony day.
As I can remember, it was "Travel out of USA", "Join the organization", "citation/ticket/arrest"...
If you have valid reason, and didn't break the rule for naturalization, it will be fine.
Such as speed ticket, and paid the fine.
But you better not have those, so you can answer all of them as "No".

QUOTE
1) Get the Naturalization certificate at Oath ceremony? And or they mail it to you.

They handed out at the end of ceremony.
You better practice the sign they requested for.
It is different from normal signature. I didn't practice for my new name, so I didn't do it beautifully. crying.gif
If you make mistake, they may not issue another one. innocent.gif
If it's their mistake, they do without any cost involved.
But if you make mistake, they may ask for money to do that.

QUOTE
2) Use the certificate to get a Passport ASAP. Do they take the certificate away from you when you apply for the passport and then mail it back to you when they send you the passport?

Yes, you have to mail "original" certificate of naturalization.
In my case, I used regular service from USPS post office, and it came back with 5~6 business days.
I requested Passport book AND Passport card.
It came back with three separate mails - Passport Book, Passport Card, and the certificate of naturalization -.
I made the copy before sending it for Passport because I would like to have the copy for just in case of mail-in-lost.

QUOTE
3) Any need to change the Social Security number/card? Any different from current card?


You have to visit Social Security Administration office to update your record.
Social Security Number will stay same.
Only you have to change the status from Legal Permanent Resident to US Citizen.
You may get same Social Security Card via USPS mail, but it has "issued date" printed in the bottom.
Also I noticed that Gold "USA" letters were added comparing to my previous SSN card.

Unless you have court order, Social Security Number will be stay same for your lifetime even if you change your name or others.

Hi guys,

First i am gonna file for my N400 in end this month,So do i need to wait for W2 to file taxes for 2008?or just go head and send last 3 years (2005,2006,2007)?

Last time when i filed for remove condition,i didn't send 2007 taxes,than i got RFE,i don't know if is gonna be some case or not for N400?


I appreciate any advance.


Thanks guys.


If I were you, I will write cover letter to explain that Tax Year 2008 is not filed yet, and you will bring it to interview when it is done.
Also include last three tax return - 2007, 2006, 2005 - along with your 3 or 6 month pay stub copy.
If possible, you should get Employment verification letter from your employer to state your job position, employment period, full/part time, and yearly salary info.
Your pay stub should show year-to-date salary info to back up your employer's statement for yearly salary info.

In order to collect W-2 and other 1099/1098 forms, it will be easily delayed another month or so.

US Citizenship General DiscussionLA Interview Experience
Congratulation!

In my case, my interview appointment was scheduled for 11:15am, which was last spot from morning session.
I don't know whether adjudicator was hungry for lunch or somethng like that.
It took less than 5 min.
He even skipped some of trivial questions from N400 form. whistling.gif
He might have lunch appointment with somebody, or was very hungry. devil.gif
I brought full duffel bag of immigration documents and tax/pay-check/employment proof, but he didn't want to see any of that.
Actually what I sent for N400 was N400 form itself.
So I had to bring the copy of Green Card and all those stuffs. innocent.gif
I missed one line from N400 instructions, which said to check M-476.
I guess dealing with USCIS for 14 years done for me, but still I have to deal with USCIS for my wife. wacko.gif

QUOTE (KyngSilva @ Jan 13 2009, 12:40 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Wait? Your a USC , why on earth would you need to write your alien number? A USC is a USC...Correct? Plus the alien number is used for non Uinted States Citizens.


It's plain...
According to the form, you have to write A# "if you have".
If you don't have, you have to write "none".

If you have A#, but if you write "none", that's false statement you are making.

Is there any reason to hide A# ?

Unless you complain to OMB and USCIS, and they change the form to remove that question,
you have to write the answer.
