KCMO

Ok found the updated google spread sheet here 

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_F-5jsaOlgxFWpsVnvsw0WI6hwszquaRQE0oQflpwsA/edit#gid=0

So there is no more passport tracker Google spreadsheet? That was really good ,and I had all my info filled.

Applied on Sep 2nd and got my check cashed on Sep 9th and Approval on Sep 24th and Shipped on Sep 25th. My processing center was Minneapolis.

Do note that your original document (US Passport ) is not sent to India. You should get it back in a week or so after you send in your OCI application.  I initiated my OCI in July and got the OCI within 4 weeks. 

Now that My passport is approved and should be receiving in 2 days due to priority mail, I will be soon starting indian citizen ship renunciation process and obtaining OCI.  Not done yet.

Alright guys! Got the email saying my passport is approved and Shipped! via priority mail today. Should be getting by 10/3 Yaayyyy!! 

Am the only one here whose agency is Minneapolis?. Anyone know the timeframe or the speed with which this agency processes applications?

Call 877 number ask for aplication number and where is it and then go to your state senator web site and ask senator to help you.

Thanks. Done.

Ok called the phone number on the .gov website got the confirmation number and the agency info.

Minneapolis agency , is in Phase 1

( have no clue what that means). But some improvement.

Email on his web site.

So you contacted you home state senator or passport agency state senator? Mine passport status is now showing as in progress. Dont have any confirmation number or anything.

It will track by tomorrow, it was only cashed today per your entry.

If we contact our senator, what info is needed to be given for them to check our app status and expediate approvals? Just the name enough?

Did you contact your senator through phone or email?

I paid $17 extra because usps girl recommended it. I was able to track my application in two business days. 

See this is where we need educated USPS workers. My usps had a worker who lacked total knowledge. Infact added irrelevant things on my application manually. 🙄   Need to breath here and not get mad. I still cant track my application even after the check has been cashed. Wish i had gone to another USPS. 

Check is cashed but not yet trackable. Says application not found , still.

Did you try registering online. In my state, I will not be able to do online registration with out updating SSN office about immigration status. I think you can still register to vote if you go to DMV office or Board of elections office in your county. If there is name change during naturalization, things become little more complicated.

what? I registered to vote online the day after my oath ceremony and now I am showing up as registered to vote with my precinct info and all. I am in Missouri. I have not even contact SSA or DMV. I only applied for passport that too today. I registered to vote online atleast 4 days ago. On 27th. My oath ceremony was on 26th.

Yeah, thats all wrong.

2 Day shipping is included, so no need to pay extra, mine was printed on Friday, I got it today.

 

Oh By the way on the Google sheet under "agency" that would be the agency that is handling your processing.

You'll need to call once you're passport is accepted, and ask which "agency" is processing youre passport.

We use that to track their speed. Yours most likely will not be Kansas City.

Im in Los Angeles, and my passport was processed in Connecticut. 

 

Your status should be updated within 7 to 8 days online.

 

'Need call after the application accepted'. How do we check that? By going to .gov  website and typing in name and last 4 of ssn info? Because there is no tracking for what they shipped 

Submitted my passport application today. Unfortunately the USPS employee seemed to lack knowledge. I had printed the application with barcode to avoid any manual entries. But this employee wrote ' same' manually under permanent address even though the application asked to write only if it is different than mailing address. And she said it is required to put in another phone number apart from emergency contact number , so forced me to give her the third contact number which is my neighbours and filled in that also manually. Then drew a big scrratch line on the barcode.🙄. Stupid and Dumb if you ask me. And on top of all this she said they don't do 1-2 days shipping anymore for 17.30$ ( not same as expedited shipping at 60$)  so I had to select normal free shipping.

Looks like I will wait for a very long time to get my passport now that everything will be manually entered since she put a dash on the barcode. 

I ammnot even expecting tracking till 10 days at this point. Lol

Hello every one my question is not related to passport today my question is does any body recently update social security No after citizenship .. today I called the office the lady who picked my call she said send original ID card and original neutralization certificate bcz they don’t accept photocopies when I called back the other agent attend my call he said that u don’t need to send ID card (Driving license )now I m confuse what documents I have to send them any body have recently update citizenship status via mail ?? Do I have to send ID card also ??? 

Neutralization is better than Neuterization. hahahhaha. Ok Ok i get it , Naturalization misspelled. hehehe. i thought it was funny because first i assumed  it was misspelled as 'Neuterization'  it meant we are all neutered and issued neuterization certificate. ahhahahhahha

So till now SSA offices are still closed. I guess i will also wait till they open to update. Only thing right now i need to do is to apply for passport. just finished my oath ceremony yesterday.

Yesterday finished oath ceremony, received naturalization certificate and also voter registration application but i decided to register online, so today i registered to vote online. Just want to make sure that there was no waiting time or anything to register to vote online, right? I mean i know it will take some time for them to update online records, but i am good to register today , right?

All those warning wordings in the end of registration, freak me out. haha. Thanks

Had my naturalization ceremony on Friday (3 days ago), March 6th.

At the ceremony, they let me register to vote on the spot, and told me that I would not be able to vote in the FL primary (March 17th), but I will be able to vote come the general election.

They also said - "Wait at least 10 days before going to SSA to inform them", to allow my online record to update. You must do SSA before you do DMV.

 

If you applied for your passport, then you probably sent them the original naturalization certificate. Not sure if you can register to vote immediately without it, or using a copy. I doubt it.

To register online you will probably have to wait till your online records are updated.

 

If they let us to register to vote on spot after oath ceremony, why does one have to wait to register online? doesnt make sense.

oops my bad.  I didn't see 'country of birth ' is also listed. HAHA. sorry about that.

Hello!

Dont know if this been asked here before or not

What do i write for 'city of birth' on US passport applicaiton?

My previous country name?

Thanks!
