Hello ,

I need help with my Citizenship NOA Questions

I received a yellow notice asking me for more info. When I filled out the N 400 I checked that I was arrested, when technically what happened was, back when I was a student, ICE immigration came to my apartment thinking I was out of status. After I explained to them that I transferred to another college, they left. Now USCIS wants me to bring an official document that says I was charged or not charged. How can I come up with that, since I was not arrested, or detained ?

I also received the interview letter, the date is set for 03/05, and the date on the green card is 03/06. My local office offers same day oath, and it appears I might be short one day for the 3d anniversary. or 3 years including the end date. Am I gonna be asked to come later for the oath another day?

Thank you

Do you have anything at all that relates to the situation with ICE? It doesn't sound like you were arrested or detained, just questioned. You can probably explain what happened at the interview itself. You could try contacting ICE and asking them if they have any sort of a report on the incident involved. You would have to give them the date and location of the incident and ask them if they have anything on record. I suspect that you may not need anything though, if the circumstances are as you explained. However, you were better to disclose the information as you did and let USCIS decide if it needs further information or not.

Yes, unfortunately, you won't qualify for a same day oath ceremony if you are one day shy of your third anniversary. If it is any consolation, if your interview is scheduled later than mid to late morning you wouldn't have been able to do the same day oath ceremony anyway as there wouldn't have been enough time to process the paperwork. They may tell you at the interview when they will schedule the oath ceremony or else they will send you the invitation in the mail.

Good luck at the interview. If you still have documents that relate to your college classes and switching schools you might just want to add them into your pile of documents on the off chance the interviewer wishes to see them.

Thanks Kathryn,

Indeed I was trying to be forthcoming and disclose the ICE incident, even though no charges were filled, or detention happened. I remember when I did the adjustment of status, the officer asked me about that incident back then. She also said she already checked with the ICE officer, and that my version of the facts matched what he told her. We will see what will happen in the interview, I will explain again since I have no record or what so ever...

I am punching my self now for filling early. I never thought that i would complain of the USCIS processing my case so fast. Hopefully they will give me my oath letter the same day, for a near date since Dallas has Oaths almost everyday.

My interview will be early in the morning. In the Dallas office if your interview is before 11 AM and you meet all the requirements, you do the oath in the afternoon.

You would think they check before scheduling interview, that you meet the anniversary requirement. It sucks to have to go there again, just because I missed the mark by 24 hours.
