Naturalization Background Check

 Share

From what I have seen on this forum, in the vast majority of cases the background check is done immediately after biometrics and the results are rapid (days). Presumably it's some type of electronic/database check or something like that. Thereafter the wait (for an interview) in the majority of cases is almost 100% due to whatever is going on at the local field office. 

 

Maybe there are exceptions to that depending on the way people answer the security/background information questions....it's possible.

I am sure people who are applying for Naturalization had lived in other countries. 

And how do you know that for sure?

Both filed in the same local office, Manchester NH. I wonder how it really works.

My husband naturalized through Manchester, NH. Took 5 months, 3 months of that was waiting for swearing in ceremony. His interview was less than 2 months after he applied.

i am talking about several  other countries

like the VJer who had worked in Saudi and their original case was returned here for a year while they checked the saudi criminal records

and if a person starts traveling after coming to the US to the middle east ,  don't you really think USCIS will check it

not a funny thing but quite serious

I imagine you are right. I travelled emirates a few times and transited in Dubai < 24 hours sometimes and I was quizzed about that during my global entry interview
