Registration for Selective Services System

[M.A.X 0]

I have been scheduled to appear for my Interview for N-400 application on February 17th 2012 and I have been asked for my SSS registration. I never knew that I was supposed to register for Selective Services and never did. I am really confused as to how address this issue. Is there anyone who can help me out as to how I should address this during the interview and what do I need in order to prove/convince them why I did not do it. Help please!

For what I understand you should register if you are between 18-26.if you failed to do so, I think you need to explain why you didn't do it. I would recommend you to check their website for more info. Don't remember the address - i think it's SSS.gov. Google is your best friend

Almost all male U.S. citizens, and male aliens living in the U.S., who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service. It's important to know that even though he is registered, a man will not automatically be inducted into the military. In a crisis requiring a draft, men would be called in sequence determined by random lottery number and year of birth. Then, they would be examined for mental, physical and moral fitness by the military before being deferred or exempted from military service or inducted into the Armed Forces.

Non-U.S. male who came into this country for the first time after his 26th birthday

Date of entry stamp in his passport, I-94 with date of entry stamp on it, or a letter from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) indicating the date the man entered the United States. If the men entered the U.S. illegally after his 26th birthday, he must provide proof that he was not living in the U.S. from age 18 through 25. Resident Alien Card (Green Card) is not valid as proof of the date of entry to the United States.

Non-U.S. male on a valid non-immigrant visa

For example, if the man entered the United States as an F-1 student visa and remained in that status until his 26th birthday, he would need to provide documentation indicating that he was admitted on an F-1 visa and attended school full-time as required. Acceptable documentation for this situation include a copy of his I-20 form or a letter from the school he attended indicating his full-time attendance as a non-immigrant alien. The same thing applies for all non-immigrant statuses.

A male born prior to 1960

Official government issued document showing date of birth such as state ID card, driver's license, passport, birth certificate.

A veteran

DD-214 or current fulltime active duty orders, military ID card.

Hope this helps

Basically if you were a green card holder between 18 and 26 and male and did not regisiter you are not eligble to be a USC. Claiming you didn't know will not excuse not registering. If that whole period you were non green card and got your green card after 26 you will be elgible ot be a USC.

humtv how old were you when you did this?

I don't know if this is a possibility, but I'd check if I were you. IF you're still young enough to register, I'd do it NOW. Then, find out if you can still be eligible for naturalization, even if it took you a while to register. If you're "too old" to register, I don't know if there's anything you can do.

Best of luck!

My dear friends, all who have posted on this issue, I have just found out something really interesting. First of all the good news is that the SSS have found my record in their database that I was infact registered all this while I was getting constipated on the whole issue. Having said that I have also found out that while I never personally registered for SSS the INS, at the time of accepting my case for Green Card, registered me with SSS without my knowledge. All I can say is thank God for those good folks at the INS/USCIS/DHS. I cannot be a happier man.

You got luckier than you can probably anticipate right now. Not registering for Selective Services is a sure-fire deal breaker for naturalization purposes, to be outdone only by 'false claim of U.S. citizenship.'

Hesekiel is right. Same thing happened to me sort of, I was panicking about it but apparently I was registered while I was a student (although technically I wasn't in a status that needed to register for it).

Go register now. Post office! If you are a male between the ages of 18 and 26 you need to register for SSS.
