H1B to Green card and now N400 - Need advise

[bashray 24]

I came to USA in 2000 on H1b visa, had quite a bit of challenges until I got my GC in 2016.

 

I was denied GC once, my I-140 got into appeal which took a number of years and resulted into denial as well.

 

I was initially on Eb3 labor category, lawyer advised to be on Eb2 labor category as it was faster for my country, got denied due to not meeting Eb2 requirements, was in hopeless condition, when all else failed , my wife then travelled to home country and came back  and applied for family based Asylum . While Asylum was in progress (we had work authorization after applying for asylum) , my company again filed for my green card in Eb3 which got approved in 6 months. This whole process from entering to USA to getting my green card took 16 years.

 

Now that I have applied for N400, will any of this may have negative impact on my application during interview? I was never out of status during this whole period.

I don't see any ramifications

I don't think there should be an issue. You got your GC via EB3 correct? The challenges you faced before becoming GC holder has no bearing imo as long as it wasn't obtained by misrepresenting. 

 

After being lawful PR for 5 years (paying taxes) and of good moral character (hopefully) you are applying to be USC.  Rest easy.
