  1. Probably prudent for OP to get the son's passport first.
  2. He'll be fine... just practice and practice more! There are so many study tools... apps, videos, paper resources, notecards, etc. Because he is trying to master the language, perhaps youtube videos would work best? I didn't use her (I used mobile apps), but this YouTuber gets a lot of positive feedback.
  3. Your Field Office? You can use this to figure out which one will handle it: https://www.uscis.gov/about-us/find-a-uscis-office/field-offices
  4. Yes, stamping is becoming less and less common. Boo. That's why I settled for the regular version; still, I intend to politely ask for stamps at international destinations. Apparently, every now and then, customs staff may oblige.
  5. How fluent is he in English now? I think the English classes are a great idea. Can never start the civics test prep too soon if English is a new language.
  6. Yep, I'd search this forum and perhaps r/USCIS on Reddit specifically for Boston to get specific feedback. Congrats on passing!
  7. This was what I was gonna ask... CONGRATS OP!
  8. Yes, DOS handles passports. One unfortunate reason one might want to update USCIS with an address update in the future is to file an N-565; that's really stretching it though. I'm with the others... celebrate not having to deal with USCIS anymore.
  9. Ha! Dangerous of you (a reasonable person) to assume that a TSA person was aware of TSA's own materials... He eventually accepted it after asking a colleague for help. But yes, definitely not opposed to printing showing organizations their own rules. They loved me at the local SSA office (not).
  10. When I went in to update with my passport last year, they had these signs with QR codes posted that let you go directly to the scheduling system online. Sheduled patrons had priority too.
  11. Yes, SS-5 has to filled out. My understanding that the default is to send a new card, but you can tell the staffer onsite you don't need one.
  12. Happy to help. Also, if you go in person with your CON, I *believe* they run it through SAVE. As we know, SAVE can be finicky... though, with a new CON, one would hope it comes back verified instantaneously. SSA can verify a U.S. Passprt visually, which means going with a passport is preferable when possible. In fact, the SSA manual tells its staff to take passport over the CON/COC if presented with both, because the former is easier to verify an avoids utilizing USCIS systems.
  13. You are right... it would indicate that they've updated it. One way to confirm is to sign into your SSA account. If you are able to go through the motions of ordering a replacement card online (don't really have to go all the way through with it), then your citizenship stataus has been updated, as only citizens have the ability to do so online.
