Well, my case transferred to the local office since Feb :p, My case status did not change or notify?

Did anyone send in their N400?

I'm wondering if I should apply already (window opened this month if I don't mistake - received my conditional card in 11/2015). What are the pros/cons?

 

Thanks!

Well, I got my passport stamped and plan to file N400 in September so not letting this weigh me down 😁

Just updating that about 2-3 weeks ago, the wife and I went to San Antonio to get her passport stamp since we will be in Germany when her extension letter expires. It took about 2 hours total but they did stamp her passport and took her expired GC. So, we shouldn't encounter any issues traveling. That was a really simple process.

This needs to go through Congress first. Second, if you can apply for N-400 while your ROC is pending, do it... who knows what this person is going to come up with next.

I was at work when my husband sent this to me and I freaked out. 

 

I will be applying for N400 in September

 well... so far I didn't seen anything what "this person" made against of law or constitution, he is enforcing existing laws, this is his job.  Did you forgot guys what most of us signed the papers before get our visas where we promised do not use any government benefits before we became citizens?

Just got the infopass stamp for a year and they kept the green card and the officer said the case is still sitting in the Vermont office even though we moved and sent a change of address. 😔 no clue when this will even be looked at. So now we have to go everywhere with this passport 😲. Yikes!

We can already get an infopass?

Hi everybody.

 

As most of you, I have a 2 year GC that expired Nov 2017 and I filled my ROC on Sep 2017

 

As some of you know I was on a job assignment since March in Ireland. 

 

I was planning to stay here for up to 2 years, therefore I applied for N-470 Application to Preserve Residence for Naturalization Purposes. I recently found out that my petition was denied.

 

I will be returning to the U.S. NY on August 23rd. with 177 being outside the U.S. 

 

1. Absence of More than Six Months (but Less than One Year)
An absence of more than six months [more than 181 days but less than one year (less than 365 days)] during the period for which continuous residence is required is presumed to break the continuity of such residence.

 

So I don't think I broke my Continuous Residence and Physical Presence

 

During my stay in Ireland, I kept strong ties to the U.S. such as;

• Learner Permit
• State ID
• Petition for Travel Document (Re-Entry Permit) ( I-131) valid till Nov 2018
• Active Phone Bill
• Internet
• 2-Year Apartment Lease
• My Spouse stayed in the U.S.
• 401k
• Health Insurance
• Dental Insurance
• Checking Account
• Savings Account
• Credit Cards
• Personal Loan
• Tax Returns 2015, 2016, 2017

 

I was wondering if I should prepare myself for any difficulties on my return for the officer?

Wait 177 days is less that 6 months. more than six months would be 181 days+

Yes exactly so technically I should be fine. After I found out that my petition was denied, I bought my return ticket before the 181+

I am not here to discuss politics and what's against the constitution or not & he is enforcing the immigration laws as he promised his voters he will. Now, the "promised not to use any benefits" doesn't mean someone has to die just because they can't really afford health care. Even as a legal GC holder, when you seek benefits for your citizen family member, you are in jeopardy not to be approved for citizenship.
