US Immigration from France

Does anyone know the average N400 processing time for the Portland office?

Hello my friends, I need help answering few questions please. I have a cousin who is a US citizen and she married her fiance who has a student visa. Can she apply for I 130 to keep him here in the US with her or will they send him back where he came from so she can apply for him? Can he stay here after he finishes his education and live with her? I do appreciate all the help I can get. Thank you for time.

Hello,

Let's stay in contact and updtate each one for people who send in May!

Hello fellow VJ-ers,

What has been your experience re. the return of your Naturalization Certificate after applying for a passport?

- does the Passport Acceptance Facility staple it to the application and all the other application support documents?

- does the Passport Agency return the original Certificate in a full Letter envelope or do they fold it in two?

I am asking because my experience for applying for my younger son's passport, his original Birth Certificate was returned folded in a half-Letter size envelope.

Once I am naturalized (hopefully at the end of the month), I am wondering if I can provide a prepaid self-addressed FedEx envelope along with a rigid document holder for the return of the Certificate.

Has anyone tried? Is it even possible (maybe not at a USPS Acceptance Facility, but a a regular Passport Agency)?

Thanks for your feedback.

Dear all:

I would just like to confirm with you that aside from what is written on the Form N-445, I don't need to bring with me all the stack of justificative documents I brought for my interview (although they never asked me, I had them ready on hand and also uploaded them), such as the Tax Return Transcripts, Birth Certificates of my children, my current and previous (foreign) passport(s) etc...

That part is behind me, right? So I assume I can leave all those docs at home. I would prefer to come to the ceremony "light" rather than my 5lbs / 7in thick dossier with me...

Thanks for your feedback!
