Hello,

I am scheduled for my citizenship interview soon and, assuming I pass and can do a same-day oath ceremony, I should have my citizenship certificate that day.

It is my understanding that I can ask USCIS to upgrade my I-130 petition for the F2A visa for my wife to the CR1/IR1 category by writing them a letter.

But it is not clear to me what exactly I should write in that letter? (Just personal details, my case number and that I want it to be upgraded?)

What should I include? (A copy of my citizenship certificate, or the original? Anything else?)

Where should I send it? (The petition is at the California Service Center. Should I send it there directly or to the lockbox where I sent the application?)

I want to send it all in as soon as possible after my naturalization so any help to get me ready is appreciated.
