Recently I applied for citizenship.
I have my valid permanent resident card since September 2009
I did leave the country in October 2009 through LAX and came back through the Mexican border in September 2014.
I applied for citizenship based on 5 year period from the time I obtained my permanent resident card (October 2009).
I submitted my application in November 2014 claiming that I have not traveled anywhere outside of United States for more than 24 hour period in the last 5 years (November 2009 to November 2014).
During the interview the immigration officer started with the facts that I was not present in the country b/w 2010 and 2014, he continued on insisting that I can not proof that I lived and worked in USA for the last 5 years. I passed all tests (civic and English).
The office gave me 30 day period in which I need to show where I did travel in the last 5 years and proof of working and living in the country.
I do work for local restaurants since October 2014.
Do I have any shot with the citizenship here?
I hope it's not dead end and someone will help me to find the light in the tunnel.
