  1. It sounds like either you or she or we are not sure whether this is a USCIS fine, a dental bill, or a fine from the state/locality. And since she won't show you it, there's not really anything anyone can do unless she shows someone else who can assist.
  2. That is brilliant. I interviewed in Cleveland OH five days ago and am still waiting for my oath ceremony to be scheduled. Congratulations on your speedy naturalization experience!
  3. Five year rule, provided you did nothing dodgy at any point, is a walk in the park. I had my interview five days ago and I'd gotten divorced a month prior to filing the N-400. All they wanted to talk about with that was just clarifying the date it was finalized. It really is just a performative event for the majority of people. I think I had more difficulty getting there than I did at the actual appointment.
  4. To edit: biometrics was actually on 6/7, and I filed under the five year rule shortly after divorcing my ex-husband. Figured I may as well since I'd be paying to change my name on my green card anyway.
  5. Hello, only just occurred to me to post here. Apologies if I miss anything pertinent. I'll be reading through all the pages shortly! 5/13 filed online 6/8 biometrics 7/20 civics (passed) Now waiting for oathy oath.
  6. If it's still anything like it used to be ten or so years ago, you'll be waiting for that SSN card forever. Go and get it, if the person you see refuses to issue one because they don't understand I-551 stamps, kindly request a supervisor. The lady I saw at my appointment had no clue what she was looking at.
  7. If it helps you to feel any better, I got divorced about a month before I filed for citizenship and all I got asked during my N400 interview about it was to just confirm the date it was finalised. I didn't do a divorce waiver for my I-751 (that happened about five years ago when we were still married) but I was worried about scrutiny as well. I just thought it made more financial sense to go for citizenship rather than pay to change the name on my green card and then having to do citizenship later anyway. That was going to be my answer if pressed 🤣
  8. Different offices have different policies as far as visitors and seeing people without appointments. The Cleveland field office is in a big office tower, so all sorts of people are coming in and out and security is for all of those businesses. I saw people walking in without appointments while I waited for my citizenship test yesterday asking for help with various things. They allow your partner to be with you. Some are a lot more strict, I'm not sure if it depends on what kind of building they're in and whether they share it with other businesses or government entities.
  9. I think I recall my ex putting "NRA" (stands for non-resident alien) where my non-existent-at-the-time SSN would have gone. And yes it had to be mailed in. When I arrived and got my SSN, we amended the return to Married Filing Jointly.
