Thank you...

I was looking at some websites, lawyers kept saying, 'you need to mention about every traffic tickets etc.'

I finally found the answer at the USCIS website.

http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/article/chapter3.pdf

Question 7 clearly indicates that we don't need to... i am super happy now...

Still preparing the paperworks...

I got a citation last year for 'failing to pass on the green light'... That was a stupid reason...

I didn't wait for the court date, i just paid 238 dollars instead of fighting at the court... That was it...

I heard that if the fine is lower than 500 usd, we don't need to even mention about it... Is that true?

Hate to write any question 'yes', that looks so suspicious on the N-400 application...

Hi guys,

I was preparing the documents for my naturalization N-400.

I went to IRS's website, just saw our jointly Return transcripts online... Can I just print them out or am I supposed to order from IRS?

If I order through IRS, is there any stamp or anything on it? If not, printing out looks pretty simple...

Thanks in advance for the answers..

Thank you for the answer.

Congrats again!!!

Congrats MayoKy!

Did you go to the interview with your husband or by yourself?

Thank you all so much

I just got home! I was recommended for approval but he said it could be a couple of months until I will get my Oath Ceremony letter. I didn't like to hear that lol but I guess they don't do very many Ceremonies here, so now we are back to waiting

Here is my experience.

My Appointment was at 10am and I got there at 9:40am (my interview letter mentioned that because there is not very many seats that we shouldn't arrive any more than 30 minutes before our Interview Appointment. The Lady at the Window was very nice and asked me for the interview letter, my passport and my Green Card. I handed everything to her and she thanked me and said they will call you in as soon as it is or time!

I took a seat and waited. A few minuted later a lady came back in and asked for her Mother in Law.. she was very happy and cried and said she had passed I was so happy for her that I almost started crying as well

Then the next guy came back.. He was with his lawyer, most people were there with a lawyer which at first intimidated me, I thought did I miss something? Anyways the guy had not passed and the lawyer explained to him why not right in front of me. When he was sworn in he was asked to and he just said yes, and then the IO asked can you explain to me what this means and what the word truth means? Apparently he couldn't. He then was asked 5 Questions for the Civics test and failed all 5. He then also said no to ALL yes and no Questions even the ones like would you defend the constitution and would you join the military in a war situation and all that. So the Lawyer told him not to worry and he would get another interview letter in 60-90 days and he should start studying again. So I thought.. well... I guess it does happen that people fail this... dang.. I felt and for him.

So I was next. The IO was a nice younger guy and introduced himself with his name. He took me to his room and all my paperwork was already in front of him.

He asked me to read "Which State has the most people" And then asked me to write "California has the most people"

Then he immediately went to the Civics test, my Questions were

1. There is 4 amendments to the Constitution, describe one of them

2. Who Vetoes Bills

3. During the cold war what was the main concern int he US

4. If the president can no longer serve who becomes president

5. What was one reason Colonists came to America

6. What is one right or freedom from the First Amendment

I answered all Questions correctly.

He asked me if I wanted to submit any other Documentation that USCIS doesn't have yet that has both my and my husbands name on it, so I gave him the HUD from when we bought a house last year and some more bank statements from the last two years, he seems to be satisfied with it and just filed it to the other gigantic stack of paperwork. He then went on to go over my application, asked if I wanted to Change my name or not and the yes and no Questions and then gave me all my IDs back. He said hang on to that Green Card for now you are not a Citizen yet but you will not need this much longer and we will take it back at your Oath Ceremony. You should be receiving a letter to come to your oath in the next few months. ( I was hoping he would say weeks but oh well it is what it is ) He said they would run one last background check on me but as soon as I would get that approval and the last signature from his boss I will get scheduled for oath...

That was it, It only took 10-15 minutes and it was a lot easier than expected Im still glad its over with though\Good luck to everyone else that has interviews coming up And fingers crossed it will be as smooth as it was for me for all of you

Back to being patient back to wait

Yayyyy, i got an approval e-mail from USCIS, they ordered my card on Jan 6th.

I was traveling with my expird GC along with my extention letter, immigration officer also mentioned that they approved my case on 31st of December.

Good luck to everyone!

Congratulations! Did they change your status online @ uscis.gov?

Sorry,

Looks like you already gave the answer by saying they still didn't change the case status!

Congratulations!!!

I have a question. When you look at uscis.org website, to check your case status, what does it say?

I guess they've changed the website, I can't see which step we are on anymore

I was wondering whether or not they say anything when they approve the case.

Thanks and congrats again!
