Naturalization possible after approved waiver of inadmissibility?

 Share

My husband received his ten-year green card last May after our I-601 waiver of inadmissibility (for misrepresentation) was approved. I noticed that Question #30-I on the N-400 application specifically addresses misrepresentation. Is it likely that USCIS will automatically deny his application? Since applicants are given an opportunity to explain any offenses on the N-400 form, I’m hoping it’s not an automatic dismissal.

Does anyone have personal experience with answering “YES” to any of the offenses listed on the N-400 application and still gaining approval?

Thanks in advance! I know we still have years before we can file for naturalization, but a girl can dream, right? J

Wishing all of your luck on your immigration journeys.

hi

he doesn't qualify for citizenship yet, he has to be a GC holder for 3 years, 90 days before his 3 years he can apply for citizenship

he got a GC because the ban was overcome, a lot of people have filed waivers in the past for a GC, they have no relevance in citizenship sin the ban or misrepresentation was overcome

Thanks! That's what I was hoping to hear. Our dream has always been naturalization, but we considered the GC a huge victory in itself. Waiting two years with a GC will be much easier than waiting without one! :)

Not knowing the issues I am not going to comment specifically on your case.

It is certainly possible to obtain a GC but not be eligible to naturalise, or neutralise as it is often called on VJ.

There is also the Good Morale Character requirement that may delay but not preclude naturalisation.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
