Hi all,

I just would like to have in advance a clearer idea of the naturalization process. The more I read the general info, the more I get confused, although I've still time to learn, since I'm in the process of starting the removing conditions.

Sorry for sounding silly, but I really would like to have a clear picture about the citizenship process, for this reason I ask you to confirm me or to inform me about the followings:

1) If you are still married with your US husband for 3 years, you can start the process the 3rd anniversary expiry date of your 2 year GC, starting actually 90 days before the 3rd year of expiration date, correct?

2) You send to the immigration the N-400 form filled out along with the check, correct?

3) After doing that what's gonna happen? I heard you must study, where you get whatever to study?

Sorry for my confusion, someone briefly who went already thorugh the process can explain me?

Thanks alot :star:

1) If you are still married with your US husband for 3 years, you can start the process the 3rd anniversary expiry date of your 2 year GC, starting actually 90 days before the 3rd year of expiration date, correct?
YES, assuming you meet the other criteria as specified in the instructions.

2) You send to the immigration the N-400 form filled out along with the check, correct?
YES

3) After doing that what's gonna happen?
Well, in a successful process, you get NOA 1 (receipt), NOA 2 (biometrics notice), NOA 3 (interview notice) and then have the oath ceremony where you actually become a citizen.

I heard you must study, where you get whatever to study?
USCIS web site - same as the form and the instructions

PEOPLE: READ THE APPLICATION FORM INSTRUCTIONS!!!! They have a lot of good information in them! Most of the questions I see on VJ are clearly addressed by the form instructions. Give them a read!! If you are unable to understand the form instructions, I highly recommend hiring someone who does to help you with the process. Our process, from K-1 to Citizenship and U.S. Passport is completed. Good luck with your process.

Thought my kids to read the chapter headings in there school text books, most of the test questions are based on those chapter headings, strange that people read the small print and skip the bold print.

LOL, same here, when you first open this section, let your eyes rise to, General Info on Naturalization the very top post in this board, and read that.
