Yes we are applying this month hopefully. We have a question about the work history which we just posted under the citizenship category. Once we get this issue squared away we will be filing. So complicated and stressful! If anyone has any input, please see my question called N-400 work history question. Thanks so much.

Good luck to all August N-400 Filers.

Need some help guys with the N-400 qns

I am going to apply for my citizenship soon...Just to be proactive I have been looking at the N-400 Appln form. Everything looks pretty simple straight forward questions and I answered all the questions. This was till I came to the Part 10 .. Section D..Good Moral Character...I dont know if I should answer Yes or No for questions 15, 16, 17 and 18.

Here is what I am confused about.

I have one Parking Ticket, think 2 speeding tickets.

Cop had pulled me over and given tickets for these violations. Paid the fines right away. No Court nothing was involved. And all these 3 fines were less than $500.00.

So now

Question 15: Have you ever committed a crime or offense for which you were NOT arrested

Speeding and Parking ticket is not a crime but an offense. And I was not arrested for this minor traffic offense.

So should I answer YES for this question?

Question 16: Have you ever been arrested, detained or Cited by an law enforcement officer for any reason?

I have never been arrested. But getting those 2 speeding tickets means I was cited by cop (law enforcement officer)and in order to issue those tickets he had to pull me over, run my plates and what not. So is pulling over for a traffic violation being detained?

Since I was cited (issued speeding ticket by a cop)

Should I answer YES for this question?

Question 17: Have you ever been charged with committing any crime or Offense?

Again I have not committed any crime. But traffic violation is a traffic offense. Cop did charge me with that speeding

offense.

Should I answer YES for this question?

Question 18: Have you ever been convicted of a crime or offense?

Again I have not committed any crime so never been convicted of any crime. But cop did say I was speeding and issued me tickets and I paid the fines. Does it mean the cop issuing those tickets and me paying those tickets mean I was convicted of speeding? Convicted seems like a word not appropriate for a traffic offense?

Should I answer YES for this question?

Also from what I have read online parking tickets dont matter at all. So should I even mention about that offense on the form?

Thanks to all..

Hey guys!

I had my passport size photo taken at Walgreens but at the back of the photo, they stamp their address.

Would this be a problem? Anybody here have same experience?

If everything is fine, I am sending my papers on Monday.

Hello everyone,

I'm new here, I'm getting my application N-400 ready to apply this month, I need help answering this question: N400 question on part 10 section D question # 24

“Have you ever lied to any U.S. government official to gain entry or admission into the United States?”

I'm confused how to answer this question, if the question means: Basically did you ever lie to get a resident card or visa to enter the United States. my answer is NO.

But, if the question in general,

On 2005, me and my ex-wife on our first interview for I-130 petition at the U.S. Embassy in Jordan. at first we told an untruth about how we met, we had been told by other couple and a lawyer if we say: we've met on-line (which we did) the consular will reject our petition and that scared us. so we told a lie at the beginning, and the consular discovered it and then we confessed right away with the reason why we lied.

Then consular sent our I-130 petition to the U.S. Embassy in Athens, Greece for approval, which eventually got approved after a long time and with a lot and lot of evidences we had sent to proof our relationship is legitimate.

I entered the U.S. 4th of July 2007 and now I'm applying for N-400 Naturalization based on 5 years permanent resident, and I don't know what to answer this question. Please I need help. My concern here is that I'm afraid the I.O. will make a big deal about that 7 years old incident & then accuse me of a fraudulent marriage after all, which this could lead taking my permanent greencard away. we just got divorced after 7 yrs married.

I'm just being very careful in responding to this question 24 and try to understand what they exactly meant by it. Please help, this is the only thing I need to do and everything is ready for me to file N-400.

Thank you.
