Online Application vs F400

[Jay Ridler 1]

Hi Gang,

Need some advice. I'm a permanent resident, married to a US citizen for over four years. So, I'm applying for citizenship. Do folks suggest a paper submission via the PDF version of n-400, or doing it online?

Also, I'm a little perplexed with USCIS's website, so is there a link to the total current costs? And do permanent residents need another round of biometrics?

Thanks!

Jay

you can't submit n400 online, it should be paper submission, the fee is $ 595 + $ 85 biometric total = $ 680

for the updated fees, always check uscis.gov then go to Forms, you will see the current fees in the thrid column next to the form #

Great, thanks! So, last question: I fill out the form, I send it in, I get a biometrics round done, I get info on the test, I take the test, I await results.

Is that the process, or am I missing a step?

You've got it. Submit your form, get your biometrics and receive the 100 questions booklet at the biometrics site. Once you're placed in line for an interview, study study study. Your interview, if it goes well, will conclude with "recommended for approval" by the interviewing IO. That puts you in line for the oath ceremony where you make your pledge to the US, receive your certificate, and dance around because you're finally a USC.
