Hi Guys,

I have my citizenship interview next month.

I am 35 years now. I came to US when I was 28 years. so, I didnt register with Selective Service System.

in the Interview, How do I prove that I came to US when I was 28 years? is the stamp in my passport will be sufficent? or do I need a STATUS INFORMATION LETTER from selective service system saying that I was 28 when I first came in to US?

Thanks.

I would bring at least the documents listed on your interview letter, and copies of anything you sent them with your application, or any RFE's. Beyond that, if you have the time, why not make that request? If you can prove that requirement does not apply to you by other evidence, bring that as well. It they don't ask, then don't volunteer anything, but if you need it, you have it.

Memo:

WHEN TO REGISTER

The law requires virtually all male U.S. citizens (regardless of where they live), and male immigrants residing in the U.S. (permanent resident aliens), to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday. Therefore to be in full compliance with the law a man turning 18 is required to register during the period of time beginning 30 days before, until 30 days after his 18th birthday a 60-day window.

Late registrations are accepted, but not once a man reaches age 26. Men who do not register within the 60-day window are technically in violation of the law and should register as soon as possible.

A male non-citizen who first takes up permanent residence in the U.S. when he is at least 18 years old, but not yet 26 years old, must register within 30 days of becoming a resident. If he first enters the U.S. as a resident when he is 26 years old or older, he does not register with Selective Service because he is too old to register. Male non-citizens in the U.S. temporarily (valid student or visitor visa, diplomatic corps, etc.) do not register.

Your OKay..

Thanks for the input. unfortunately, if I request a status information Letter, I will not get it at time before my interview, which is first week of May.

they take at least 30 days to process a request.

Thanks again both you guys for replying my question.
