  1. Where were you when the site visit occured? Did you live there? What about the spouse? Did they talk to your spouse?
  2. I get it, immigration is indeed hard. Good luck!
  3. Let us know how it goes. I'm sure people would value an update once you guys manage to get her a US passport overseas. I know I wouldn't risk it for a vacation personally.
  4. Worst case - call in sick. There will be many jobs, but only one oath ceremony to become a US citizen!
  5. Unless it's a life and death situation, why do you want to complicate life? As many data points suggest, if she applies for expedited passport, she should get it within few weeks here in the US. If it is an emergency, maybe it makes sense postponing oath and travelling on GC, unless you think the trip will be long? Follow the standard process to ensure smooth travel. Deviate from it - and you will either pay more, wait longer or both.
  6. Service request won't cut it. The procedure is to file I-90. I'm surprised this advice is coming from an immigration lawyer.
  7. I liked your recent guess about the term 😃:
  8. The smile was about the joke. A agree with your other statement. By the way I had a poll:
  9. Yes, I think I saw a prompt when doing change of address online with USPS.
  10. Risk 1. She can get stuck overseas due to slow processing times at embassy Risk 2. What if she loses certificate? She'd have very hard, expensive time restoring it. The law says she should travel on US passport, why break the law as the first thing after becoming a citizen?
  11. I wouldn't personally do it. Why risk it? You can visit for a month once or twice but take a long leave for 1+ year?
  12. I think you may need a waiver. See the thread:
  13. Sorry to hear about that. There may be many reasons why your interview got this notification. Maybe the office is busy or something urgent came up. However, unless you receive something in the mail, I'd still show up for the interview with original letter you got in the mail. Sometimes USCIS has glitches in their IT systems sending incorrect statuses and updates. You don't want to miss the interview because of that!
  14. I hope you're aware most of information you get from tier 1 officers at USCIS over phone is inaccurate, even made up?
  15. I'd check all paperwork you ever submitted to USCIS to know what all names been used in other applications.
  16. Always make sure to have copies of everything you submitted to USCIS. In this day and age anybody can store few megabytes of files on computer / in the cloud storage etc.
  17. These estimates, especially in My Progress tab are hugely inaccurate. They're just random numbers at this point.
  18. I think it occures when navigating from thread to thread too fast.
  19. Yes, I'm getting this error from time to time in the last few weeks now. I know workarounds, it's just a bit annoying
  20. Don't forget about voter registration when filing taxes with Turbotax, submitting change of address with USPS and many other places. That's a good reason to always pause, and read carefully every word before signing anything. It got to the point I take screenshots / photos of my answer NO for vote registration whenever I see it. Just to make sure I'm not accused of anything 😃
  21. This sounds like a law exam question 😃 Technically, if your kid permanently resides in the US and was on a temporary trip under 6 months, they should become a US citizen when you naturalize. You'd have to get them a US passport to come back. This is not a legal advice, I'm not 100% sure your kid is a US citizen, but most likely is
