  1. Yes, that's somewhat true. The moment you attend the oath and swear the allegeance, you become the US citizen. The certificate is just a proof of citizenship.
  2. It's possible, but don't worry about the things you cannot control. It's done. You have to wait for their feedback.
  3. Let's see what others who filled this form before for both parents say. Do not use my posts as a guidance as I do not have 100% certainty it's correct. This is my understanding of the form only.
  4. You include them in family and list relation to principal immigrant. But you don't check the box 2 in part 3. You're sponsoring them in different petition.
  5. Part 3 Question 1 - Yes. You're sponsoring principal immigrant on each form. Each parent is a principal immigrant and they don't have derivatives. My understanding is #2 is for derivatives. For example, when you file for spouse and minor child of yours.
  6. Wait... Part 3 - should enter information for both mother and father he's sponsoring. Then in part 5: 1) 2 (both parents) 2) 1 (himself) 3) 1 (wife) 4) 1 (kid) Total = 5 Same total for mother's form and father's form. ~ Not a legal advice ~
  7. That's the total perhaps? The question about LPRs
  8. That number is 0 unless he sponsored somebody else who's now an LPR.
  9. The count should include the other sponsored person, of course.
  10. You get certificate on different day, the day of oath.
  11. Clearly the screenshot shows certificate of naturalization was issued. It means they're already a citizen. It was a same day oath ceremony as the interview.
  12. I think you explained this in great detail. I-130 is reviewed by USCIS, but passport is issued by DOS. If you search the web, you'll see examples when USCIS requested other proof of US citizenship than US passport. It's rare but it happens. Not saying it will be needed in OPs case for sure.
  13. I thought USCIS can ask for the certificate during the process on their discretion?
  14. No worries at all. Go ahead and get that job. As long as it's not related to gentlemen clubs / controlled substances, weapons or anything else tainting good moral character - you're fine.
  15. You're a free person. It's totally fine to switch jobs! You can update the information at the interview. Don't even think twice, this won't affect your citizenship unless you're joining a cannabis plant or something like this. Are you moving states as part of job switch? If not, it's not an issue.
  16. Get a certified copy. It's pretty cheap and easy to obtain. I don't know if a copy would be accepted 100%.
  17. This is a pretty ordinary denial. You described it well in your own words. There's no way she can visit the US until she gets an immigrant visa.
  18. Put it in, it's printed on your naturalization certificate.
  19. I strongly suggest getting one. You may be asked to present it by USCIS at other stages of your beneficiary's immigration process. It's also not uncommon to get asked for it when renewing US passport or getting benefits from SSA. Obtaining it takes time, the last thing you want is to be turned away in the future for not having it. It's a vital document, just like Birth Certificate.
  20. Not a big deal. Half of the time message is never sent even if people include G-1145. It's either an issue with USCIS IT system or carriers block message as spam.
  21. When exactly in February did you file? It can take 6 weeks to get a letter from USCIS. In terms of EAD card, it'll be probably September - November when receive it. If you were out of status when you filed, maybe even longer
  22. It is less paperwork, since you won't have to prove the bonafide marriage. All the docs listed above are for 5 year rule. For 3 year rule you'd be providing documents proving your shared life with the spouse - bank statements of joint accounts, utilities in both names and many more. If you qualify to naturalize under 5 year rule, it's a no brainer, go for it.
