Just out of curiosity, why is it important to bring original case receipts? 

We were talking about keeping the paperwork after the oath ceremony

Hi all!

I decided to get rid off lots of papers related to all my previous cases. Do I need to keep anything for the future? If so, I guess I should keep ex spouse copies of passport and birth certificate, divorce and marriage license.
Do I need to keep the copies of my work permit, receipts and etc?

Any thoughts on this.

Thank you!

Any updates?

Forgot to update

Got the notification for biometrics 2 days after I posted the message lol

It took 22 days

01.02.24 n400 filled

01.24.24 biometrics reuse

And the estimated time dropped to 6 months

Just applied yesterday (online) under 3y rule.

Received the NOA within 15 minutes but not biometrics reuse. Apparently I’ll have to go to get them done.

Estimated time 8 months.

Still neither biometrics reuse nor biometric appointment. It’s been 3 weeks.

And estimated time was 8 months and now it has disappeared 😕

Great! 
I believe we filed the same day and I still haven’t received the biometric appointment notification. Maybe mine comes soon.

When were your last biometrics taken?

Did you look in the documents section of the online portal? That's where mine was mentioned, the actual status didn't say anything about biometrics reuse.

I did. There’s only a receipt number.

Hi everyone 

i filed n400 application January 5th but i never received finger prints reuse like you guys did. Do you think what might be the problem. I am worried:( 

i am a green card holder married to US citizen 

Neither I. There’s nothing to be worried about. It’s just a part of the process. I saw some people didn’t have biometrics reuse had to go to get them done and still got their interviews pretty quick.

hello. cell-phone and speeding (only speeding; not reckless driving) are infractions = citations = to be put in the form and you're correct on that.

 

I'm confused the judge reduced it from cell phone to a parking? That's odd. Where you parked when you had your phone in your hand?

 

But yes, i would probably write "speeding ticket (infraction) XX-XXXX (the code for the speeding)" / what was your disposition on this? found guilty? pre-paid?

I don’t know how it works I hired a lawyer and it was reduced from a cell phone use to -stopping, standing or parking in specified places 😬🤷‍♂️

I had to pay a fine for this violation.

do you think that means I can write “stop, parking” violation as it says it the disposition?

Hello everyone!

I’m about to file n400.

I’ve been cited twice- both are traffic tickets.

1- cellphone but lawyer reduced it to a parking ticket- paid

2- speeding- paid 

Should I write in - why were you cited - “Traffic ticket” for both citations or I need to be more specific about it?

1. “Cellphone use”

2. “Speeding”

Should I write in -outcome - “fine paid”  for both citations?

Thank y’all

Hi All, I have my N400 naturalization interview coming up in a week. As a recipient of Green card through, what documents do you all think I should carry with me to the interview? 
 

Are there any other things I should be aware of ? 
 

@Sandra G.
 

Hi!

Can you please share your timeline?

And did they use your old fingerprints?

Thanks and wish you a good luck next week

Hello everyone!

Did you guys submit your tax returns when you filed online? If so, was it just first page or all of them? And past 3 years?

Thanks

Choose the option other and write 319(a).Submit copies of your tax return.

Hi Sandra!

How many pages of tax return should be submitted? Just the first page or all of them?

Thank you 

@TBoneTX Hi. I hope you’re doing well.

Is there a thread something like “n400 vawa filers”? For those like us (vawa) who filed n400.

Thank you

Hi everyone!

I’ve been a silent reader since March 2019. 
My VAWA was approved and I’m about to apply for an EAD renewal(C31).
I have one question. 
What’s our current immigration status? (for all VAWA approved applicants and awaiting their GC interview)
I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen the answer to a question like that.

I attached a screenshot of I-765 form with the question 25.

Thanks in advance!
