    Interview and Oath - how soon?

    in US Citizenship General Discussion

    Posted

    Hello,

    Is there a way to know how soon the oath is going to follow the interview for citizenship?

    I have seen that the Oath ceremony can occur at the same time. I would like to celebrate and have family attend the oath, so:

    Should my family come to the interview so that they are here for the oath? Is family allowed?

    How can I know when the oath will occur?

    Thanks!

    I came under fiance visa and got married, then got my Greencard. I was not sure if I wanted to get the US citizenship - I take this very seriously and wanted to be sure I felt like a citizen before applying. I think that I am ready to become a full US citizen. Now, I am beyond the 3 years and the 5 years. Do I still need to add information on my spouse, what is the point?

    I am happily married but I want to limit the personal info, since I felt my privacy was quite hurt already with the fiancee visa application...

    Is is better to get the citizenship quickly or can I just wait?

    Thanks for the fast answer. At this point, it is money, the fee is 680 USD and I/we need to save a little bit. I think that I remember vaguely that my spouse signed some kind of affidavit, in case I need social security, he would have to help me financially, I would not be eligible as a permanent resident - did I dream this?

    Anyway, I love the USA and really feel at home, so yes, I would love to apply soon!

    Take care!

    Citizenship application questions - proofs and oath ceremony

    in US Citizenship General Discussion

    Posted

    Hi All,

    I will apply through marriage and permanent residence.

    I have a few questions I could not find the answer to on this great Website.

    1- Do I need to send again tons of proofs I have been living happily with my husband or is it enough to send just tax returns for 3 years? :reading:

    2- Is there a way to know where the Oath Ceremonies take place (Southern Ca) - also can my husband/family members/friends come to the Ceremony and see me become an American Citizen? :star:

    Thanks!!

    France to ban Burqas/Niqab in Public?

    I totally agree with the French law.

    You need to understand France and its values first before you judge this law.

    The value is: people should be given the same opportunity to integrate society. The French system is totally SEPARATE from religion.

    In your home/backyard you are free to wear BDSM outfits or have your wife wear a burka showing only her eyes.

    In public, please do not wear something that can be interpreted as extremely demeaning for female rights.

    Peace and love and equality and respect!

    Sarkozy says burquas are not allowed in France.

    K1 is almost impoosible now???

    "The only good lawyer is a dead one" is a little silly.

    It is not silly, it is black HUMOUR :devil:

    It is just a way to say that lawyers, in easy cases such as a K1 applications, take advantage of the lack of information of people and let them believe they cannot do it alone.

    USCIS is a pain in the neck BUT the process is fairly EASY if you follow the instructions (and ask questions on this forum if you are not sure)

    The hardest parts are:

    1- Get all the evidence documentation (and NO lawyer can do it for you)

    2- Wait

    The easiest parts are:

    1- Making photocopies

    2- Downloading the forms online

    And that is what a lawyer will charge you for!!!!! A total rip-off if you come from a county without fraud and your relationship is legitimate.

    The reason for the delay could be the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative

    http://travel.state.gov/travel/cbpmc/cbpmc_2223.html

    On June 1, 2009, the U.S. government will implement the full requirements of the land and sea phase of WHTI. The proposed rules require most U.S. citizens entering the United States at sea or land ports of entry to have a passport, passport card, or other travel document approved by the Department of Homeland Security.

    More passport applications!!!

    California DL

    in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by caroledfb

    Hi,

    My California DL will expire with my Permanent Resident Card. Will I have to go back to the DMV to have it renewed when I get my 10 year Green Card?

    Will I have to pass the test again? What happens if I do not get the new Green Card before the expiration of my current Green Card and Driver's Licence?

    Thanks for your help!
