Hi All,

I am still awaiting for my N-400 application to complete. My GC expires on June 12 2019.

How early can I go and try to get the stamp in my password?

Should I bother submitting the I-90 application at this point?

Thanks!

Thanks! How do I get an extension on my GC while I am in the process of becoming USC?

Great, thanks! A lots if useful info  

Great, thanks!

Thank you all!
Just to clarify: are you saying that I should also be submitting I-90 form while I have n-400 being processed, to be able to travel? Is there any kind of temporary permit I can apply for?

If my permanent green card expires while I am in the process of getting USC, can I still travel back to Canada and/or overseas?

What are my options?

Thanks!

The documentation says to bring all your passports so I wanted to know whether they are taking them away or not.

If my permanent green card is expired while I am in the process of getting USC, can I still travel back to Canada and/or overseas?

Hi there,

Will they take my Canadian passport during oath ceremony?

If my permanent visa card is expired while I am in the process of getting USC, can I still travel back to Canada?

Thanks!

Thank you everybody for the great info.

I have a little problem, I did not report it last year and I had more 10K in my checking account.

Any idea what to do?

What kind of fine are we talking about?

I will also post it on the accounting forum.

Thanks!

What tax forum do you mean?

I live in US but I have left some of my savings in Canada in $ CA. There is more than 100K in Canadian savings account. US $ is not very sought currency nowadays.

Will I have any issues with Revenue Canada because of this?

I do not want to pay double tax.

Any help is welcomed!

Thanks!

Hi there,

I applied for removal of conditions a few months ago, and I received the approval letter last week. I also received NOA1 with 1 year extension around 4 weeks after applying.

We are leaving for our European vacation in 7 days.

My question is: Am I safe to travel with my NOA although I received the approval letter or should I schedule an appointment with USCIS to get my passport stamped?

Thanks!

No later than April 17, 2009, the law will change for people born outside Canada. If you were born outside Canada and your parent was a Canadian citizen when you were born, your child born in another country on or after the new law comes into effect will not be a Canadian citizen by birth.

Does it mean that children of Canadians living legally in the US can’t get Canadian citizenship after April 17, 2009????

Hi,

I moved to the US in 2007 on K1 visa, got married, got my GC, etc....

Where do I send my Canadian 2007 tax package now?

Is it to your provincial tax center or somewhere in Ottawa?

Thanks!

The best thing you can do is, if you have a good Canadian credit score, go to the US before moving and apply for Nordstrom or Macys credit card at any store. They are able to verify all your info and mail you their credit cards to Canadian address.

When you move, you simply update your credit card file and with your new US address and SSN (you can actually keep both US and Canadian social security # on file) and all your credit score is transferred from Canada to US automatically.

Use your US card a few times in US, and they will start sending you a few “pre-approved” applications per day plus the rest of junk mail

Hi Misa,

I am in the exact same shoes as you are

Please post what you find out, I have not even started thinking about next year tax because I know it is gonna be a long and messy project. Just taking a break after receiving my GC.

Thanks!

Hello,

We tried to add myself on a health plan through my wife's insurance company and they quoted us $450 per month! She does not pay anything for herself, it is covered by her employer.

#######???????????????

I used to pay $30 monthly for regular health plan through my ex company in Canada.

What have the rest of Canadians done when moved to the US?

Is there anything cheaper around that acctually makes sense to get?

Thanks!

It is my best friend's B-Day on Tuesday night and my AOS interview is on Thursday at 2 PM. I was thinking about driving up back home on Tuesday (1 and 1/2 hours drive), getting drunk on Tuesday night and coming back on Wednesday night.

I'm a Canadian and I've got valid multiple entry AP.

Hi,

Do you think it would be weird or risky to visit Canada (driving across border) two days before AOS interview with valid AP for an overnight visit?

What are your thoughts?

Thank you both guys; you are GREAT source of useful information; without your help this web site/all forums would not be the same place!

Thanks again!

They took my original 90 days valid I-94 when I re-entered USA on AP. I have a copy of it though.

Is that going to be a problem?

I still have new I-94 stamped and valid for 10 months.

The K-1 visa, I-94 card, and Marriage Cert, establish this.

Hello,

In my interview letter one of bullet points says to bring “All documentation establishing your eligibility for Lawful Permanent Resident status”.

What does this mean?

What should I bring?

I arrived on K1, got married in 90 days and applied for AOS based on my marriage to USC.

Thanks!

I just phoned USCIS, after being on hold for 45 min. a lady who does not speak English very well (????? how did she get that job) told me that I can travel anywhere I want right after my interview with valid AP.

Apparently it is still valid since my GC will take 2 months to arrive.

I do not know if I should trust her or not????

Does anyone know if they issue the I-551 stamp in Seattle?
