If the marriage is over you don't need to, and should not stay with your wife to remove conditions or get citizenship. Doing that will bring you more problems in the long run than necessary.
File for divorce, and as soon as it is granted submit your paperwork to remove conditons with a waiver. If your wife wants to help you she can help to put together information showing that you two had a bonified marriage that just did not work out. She can even write an affidavit swearing to that as well and that she supports your efforts to live as a permanent resident and eventually a US citizen.
After you get the conditions removed, wait until you've been a resident for at least 5 years and then apply for citizenship based on qualifying residence if you want to become a USC.

Man it's quiet in here! I hope more inline statuses and interview letters start rolling in soon. Come on July filers! If I can't be happy for myself as yet at least let me be happy for you!

Sorry to hear about the development with your son Brijo. I hope you'll update us when everything turns out ok with him as I know through the grace of God it will. Thank you to you and your wife for your service. My best to you all.

I agree with using your wife's current legal name on the form. As for the addresses and dates. I believe it's ok to use the month and year if you can't remember the exact date, but for the addresses, how about trying a google search on the names of the schools and businesses. Usually they have a contact page on their website that has the official address.

I took my ex-hubands last name when we got married and that's what shows on my PR card. In the final decree it was stipulated that my name revert to my maiden name. I never changed the card and I put my maiden name as my legal name in the application (married name as name exactly as shown on the PR card) and it was accepted. When I went to biometrics the person organizing everyone told me to write my name in both formats on the form. I'm sure they ran the the background check on both names. Other than that everything was fine. I'm sure at the interview it will also be clear even though everything of mine (card/passport/DL) doesn't match either.
You'll be fine.

No, no oath date, no indication of anything. There was a form that was missing a signature.
More waiting
Congrats HappyDancer
Strange indeed...all of that for a signature. I think your approval is coming soon though. Hold tight.

Updating Happy Dancer oath date. Congrats!
Putting some filers in the red too.

^^^. I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
You're welcome...and to add an addendum, I know this to be true for requesting transcripts online. Not sure if the secondary party could get it going into a tax office.

If I were you I'd find a non-intimidating way to let your soon-to-be ex know that even after divorce she's not "off the hook" as far as it concerns you. Signing the affidavit of support means that you are technically a ball and chain to her until you either work for 10 years or become a citizen. Therefore it is in her best interest to cooperate with you and help you get what you need so she can really be "off the hook" as fast as possible. Maybe if you reson with her from that point of view she will be more inclined to help you.
And by the way, the person who has their SS# first on a tax transcript in a joint filing is the only one who can access that transript. So you must get it from her if you need it for proof. The fact that she filed it jointly means she should let you have a copy for your records.
-
Well, maybe she'll show up at your work like mine did!
He said I need to be there by 4pm. He even spoke to my principal so I wouldn't have trouble getting the time off of work
Good luck, I'm sure its nothing.
Have you been back to see the IO as yet? I'm really curious to know how everything went. Hope you got your oath date!
-
Anybody in NYC has received an Interview Date? seems like I am one of the last few people left on the list. Wake up New York office, I just wanna get done with it!
It's a frustrating part of the process. People who live in more populous areas like NY, ATL and Dallas, Texas have to wait longer than most for interview dates. There's a bright side though as Oath ceremonies are typically scheduled faster.
I hopeyou hear something soon.

Updating dpds. Congrats! Could you please also provide your inline and interview letter dates?

My husband has been home since Nov 2010 and we have been married since Dec 2010 he received his 2yr green card in March 2011and now has the 10yr card. we however are looking to file for citizenship under the married to spouse for 3 consectuvie years blah blah blah......my question is when did the calendar on the 3 yrs start is it upon his arrival in 2010 or when he recieved is yr GC in 2011 or when we got married in 2010? Please advise thanks
Look at his PR card and check the "resident since" date. Add 3 years to that and then count back 90 days. That's the earliest time you can send it your application for citizenship for marriage based cases. By the sound of it your window opens up sometime between December 2013 and January 2014.
-
Okay guys, I am done. And unfortunately I got the decision cannot be made.
Hi Nimaan! Thanks for the update. Try not to worry, it probably just has to go through a supervisor first before they approve. I hope you get your in que for oath email soon!
-
First of all, I do not think you should be worried. It will get approve if your marriage is real. It might take a while but it will.
I think financial disclosure is very important, in my opinion is the most important of all documents. IRS transcripts & bank statements can say a lot about you.
As an accountant I usually can tell exactly where people spend their money, how much and what are their spending habits. I would not be surprised if USCIS have access to a system called FIRM (financial institution record match) which basically tell what is your balance on each of your accts and where do you bank. Child support agencies & IRS have this system.
If the joint bank statements you provided them have minimal transactions and a low daily balance, and on the other hand you have another single account in which you have thousands of dollars and a lot of transactions, it will raise a red flag.
Just an opinion not a fact.
Hey Daniel. This is not my thread, but I just wanted to say you've given such a thoughtful answer.
The OP got their case approved a few days ago and also recieved notification that their oath letter has been sent. I hope one of the mods can consolidate the many threads created around this topic to make everything easier to follow for everyone.

Not youre fault!!!thks a lot!!!!
One more quick question...so if I'm lucky,and they send me the interview letter after 3months from now I should be fine ,right ?
I'm not sure, but I believe the only way it would not change anything is if you go back to where your former local office is and do your interview and oath there. If I were you I would call USCIS and ask them what the appropriate steps are to take so you don't end up wasting your time and money.
-
Thank you very much. We are both very happy. Thanks also for updating the timeline.
Also you are correct that I just put in the anniversary date and not 90 days before. Is the eligibility date use the 90 day rule?
I think both are correct for eligability, just depends on whether or not we take advantage of the 90 day rule.
How was your interview experience?
-
RPRR, you were eligible on 6/30. So you became a US citizen on 9/11 which was before the anniversary? How could that be possible?
I'm guessing they put their actual anniversarry date, not using the 90 days rule.
-
Thanks for info on parking, good luck tomorrow, so strange you have to go back with no explanation about why you were not approved earlier this week! I am sure you will be approved tomorrow.
I agree Canadian_Wife. I'm sure you'll get approved tomorrow and hopefully get your oath ceremony as well so you don't have to go back yet again.
Nightingale...please let us know as soon as you get your interview letter. I'm so excited for you.

Journey is over. Interview and oath same day 9/11. Overall this went quite fast for us. Less than 2.5 months from date we mailed the application.
Best wishes to everyone.
Congrats and all the best for the future!
Filing Early for Naturalization - What's it really mean?
in US Citizenship General Discussion

I agree with A & A.
There's no standard rate that interviews get scheduled because it all depends on your local office and the case load they have to deal with. A lot of places don't process cases very fast, so if you happen to live in one of those areas you're easily looking at waiting 4-7 months for an interview date. The thing is you can't become a citizen, as in take the actual oath, until after your specific date (3 or 5 years after resident since) passes. To cut that time down to a bare minimum many people choose to file within the 90 day period.
As for why....there could be many reasons for wanting to speed it up.
- To be able to vote in an election (this year is not a year for that reason)
- To sponsor relatives to the US
- To get a job that requires you to be a USC
- To be able to live in another country
- To end an affidavit of support obligation
- To just be done with USCIS as quickly as possible
These are just a handful and I myself can relate to at least 2 of them.
