Citizenship in Dallas, TX
Hi Folks,
I am applying for citizenship in the next 2-3 days and wish to get some information about the process and the times that it is taking right now. I have seen the tracker and realize that processing times have improved. I would appreciate it if folks out there can relate their experience. Thanks
I have the following questions:
1. My GC is expiring next month and I am applying for citizenship now (yes, I know about not having given that a thought. But I have had some huge personal problems and work that required attention and hence the delay). Do I have to renew the GC or should I just wait until the citizenship process takes its course. I do not have to travel (knock on wood) and hence wondering about the pros and cons of applying for a GC renewal.
2. I am applying here in Dallas, TX. Would appreciate any recent processing times and length of time it is taking to acquire citizenship.
3. I entered this country when I was 24 and as a student on F1. I did not apply for SSS. However, I had a couple of semester where I took less than the full course of study and 1 semester where I did not enroll due to health reasons. Due to those reasons, the INS extended the length of my stay on F1. If I apply for SSS now with a transcript showing those 3 semesters, what will the SSS have to say about my enrollment requirement. How should I explain it.
4. I am 42 now and would the SSS requirement (in the event SSS says that I was required to enroll) disrupt my application for citizenship.
5. Do I need to send them an affidavit along with the N-400 application to indicate that I did not know of the SSS requirement back then (1988-89).
6. I got my GC based on my wife being a citizen and I am currently applying for citizenship based on that as well. Any ramifications?
Thank for your time and help.
