i get called in every state (city ) i lived in even when i was attending college Owing a large tax bill to IRS could be a good reason not to naturalize or thinking there is a warrant out for your arrest (even not going to court for a simple traffic ticket can trigger a warrant) not wanting your name or photo in news for the Oath ceremony as an ex is looking for u But to add to this "i have thought to get citizenship in Morocco as Adil's wife so i could own a summer home" anyone going this way too?

The net value of the home is the appraised value of the home, minus the sum of any and all loans secured by a mortgage, trust deed, or other lien on the home. If you wish to include the net value of your home, then you must include documentation demonstrating that you own it, a recent appraisal by a licensed appraiser, and evidence of the amount of any and all loans secured by a mortgage, trust deed, or other lien on the home. sounds like a joint sponsor is a good idea Please do a timeline on your profile and ID the country
