How to withdraw N-400 while its pending?

[GStyles 5]

Hi All,

 

I summit my N-400 application in February 2019 under 3 years rule for marrying to an US citizen.

However I found out my husband was cheating on me in March 2019 while we just have our first baby so now we are separated and ready to get divorce.

I have asked an immigration lawyer and he said I can just withdraw the case and apply again under 5 years rule ( which is next year, I applied my N-400 when I was married for 4 years instead 3 years)

Does anyone has similar experience withdraw application while pending? 

 

Thanks

You can simply send a letter to USCIS mentioning you want to withdraw your citizenship application. Provide all info including your name, address, receipt number and such. Mail to the address listed on the receipt notice.

Hi Arken,

 

Thanks for the info.

They have transfer my case to local office and I never received any notice after all ( no address or anything ) only the update on the internet account.

The lawyer is suggest me bring the letter when I get my interview date. 

Will this withdraw be affecting my apply again next year?

Yeah then that way is fine. It wouldn’t impact your future application but they may ask about your marriage just to make sure you received your GC in a proper way.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think you have to withdraw, as long as you meet the condition of “living in marital union with a US citizen for 3 years” you can apply under 3 years rule. Whatever happened sounds like happened after 3 years.

You still have to be living together until the day you take your oath.The OP did say they are separated

Thanks for the replies.

Yes, I have already separated with my husband so I am not qualify by 3 years rule. 

I just want to make sure I will not have problem when I apply again next year by myself.  I got my conditional green card in 2015 from marrying an US citizen and got my 10 years green card last august. 

Does anyone has same experience and eventually get their citizenship with no problems?

I don't think you will base on other people's journey here

No problems whatsoever. You can apply for citizenship as many times as you like.
