To be fair, I don't think being a controlling person is a cultural thing. I have met a lot of controlling women and men from all over the world.

Moved to the RUB Regional Forum.

Seems pretty normal especially in the current environment. Good Luck!

Not sure if it is common or not, but I would expect the focus would be on the subject of the RFE. That being said, the IO can re-evaluate anything related to the N400, so make sure she is prepared. Good Luck!

I don’t think Minute Maid as a trade name is going away, just the frozen concentrate variety. I cannot remember the last time I had orange juice derived from frozen concentrate, usually very watery IMO, it I do like a good orange juice. i was in a meeting a few years ago and one of my colleagues was drinking a can of TaB. I could not remember the last time I have seen anyone drinking this in a long time. I asked him where he got it and he said he could still find it in 12 pack cans in his local grocery store, of course not anymore.

Pretty typical of Democrats/leftists, they accuse their opponents of doing the things they themselves do mostly for deflection.

The comments are interesting on this X post. Seems like most times, the Left got it wrong again. I do love the broad brush R card.

Oh the irony.

Hmm, jumping ship or CYA?

As to the speeding ticket that is a grey area as the N400 instructions and form are not completely clear. Technically being stopped by a police office for a traffic infraction is considered "detained", but the instructions also include this note "Note that unless a traffic incident was alcohol or drug related, led to an arrest, or seriously injured another person, you do not need to submit documentation of traffic incidents.", so it is probably best to answer yes to that question in Part 9, and take the ticket with you to the interview and explain it there. It should not be an issue, in my wife's case, she received a traffic ticket for running a red light, and we forgot about it when she filled out her N400, but she did discuss it with the IO and took the documentation with her and it was a non-issue. As to your spouse attending, it is not required especially since there is no pending I751, but it can lend support to you on what could be a bit of a stressful time. In our case I did go with my wife, but we also had an I751 in process, the IO conducted a very short I751 interview with the both of us, but my wife did her N400 interview with me waiting in the lobby (YMMV). Good Luck!

There are a few recent hits by searching "N400 Portland" here on VJ. Good Luck!

Personally, I was happy with having the oath a few weeks/months after the interview. When my wife took her oath and later when my niece and nephew took theirs, it was about 2-3 months after their interviews. In Detroit's case, it was more like 70-80 oath takers, so not so big, and it gave a chance for others such as our families to also attend the ceremony which was nice for my wife and niece and nephew seeing that support. Sure, most look at this as a necessary thing that just needs to be completed to be done with an immigration journey, but for others it is an important stage in their lives.

This is a weird situation, and I hope it has a positive outcome. Not sure what to think about the ransom note, did someone in LEO email it to TMZ or was it from the possible kidnapper(s) themselves?

This was a great line. Hmm, the leftist/Democrats showing their true colors and historical roots? Btw, I found collaboration/factchecking on this. I wonder when this will end up like Chaz/Chop? “I was told that if Trump was back in the Oval Office, Latinos would be mindlessly attacked by bigots…I guess they were right.” https://news.meaww.com/fact-check-did-anti-ice-protesters-set-up-illegal-checkpoint-to-id-agents

So why is the the MSM not covering this? Were they complicit along with the Democrats in child trafficking under the previous administration? I guess we are better off with no ICE and open borders. Homan says 145,000 of the 300,000 'missing children' from the Biden era have been located Tens of thousands of minors left to fend for themselves In a statement issued last November, DHS reported that ICE had launched a joint operation with state and local authorities to conduct welfare checks on 450,000 undocumented immigrant minors, many of whom would have been turned over to criminal child exploitation rings. "Secretary Noem is leading efforts to rescue and stop the exploitation of the 450,000 unaccompanied children the Biden administration lost or placed with unvetted sponsors. Many of the children who came across the border unaccompanied were allowed to be placed with sponsors who were smugglers and sex traffickers." https://voz.us/en/politics/260202/33028/homan-says-they-have-now-located-145-000-of-the-300-000-missing-children-of-the-biden.html

If you have updated tax filings for 2025 when the interview comes around, I would do both (upload them and also take them to the interview). Good Luck!

Yes, just following the Democrats playbook of jumping to conclusions. Want most likely can be concluded is these cars would not have been vandalized in such great numbers if it wasn’t for the actions of the extremists leftist activists/rioters creating all the chaos instead of lobbying for changes in laws.

Some people are simply just disgusting.

Interesting. I guess Andrew was not the only high level UK person chumming up to Epstein. I guess King Charles was right to cut him loose after the Queen assumed room temperature. Btw, how much more embarrassing can it be than to be pictured with only your Fruit of the Looms on. Lord Mandelson resigns from Labour Party after claims he received $75,000 from Jeffrey Epstein: Peer pictured in his pants says he wants to avoid 'further embarrassment' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15518347/Peter-Mandelson-RESIGNS-Labour-Party-latest-Epstein-file-release.html

Yep, it was ICE going around smashing windows. That is a great and logical conclusion. Sure, it might not be the extremist leftist rioters, maybe it is others taking advantage of the chaos being created by those rioters. It is nice to know that you are now referring to them as rioters.

No respect for personal property. How can these folks not be described as radical extreme leftists?

One only hopes this leads to more sane minds, but I doubt it. The money involved in the mutilation of minors is probably too much of a siren song to many.

Except when one can play the R Card.

Isn’t this fairly obvious? I guess it is either unintended consequences or “progress”.
