I have a some questions which I have looked all over the USCIS website and in the "Guide to Naturalization" that I have not been able to find the answer to. I have called the 1800 # as well but there is no option to speak to a representative.
My questions are as follows:
1)How should an applicant count his/her days outside the United States (for Part 7 section C)? The only documents that I have to verify are on my passports. On my passport, I have the entry stamp dates of the countries I have visited and the entry date stamps that I have reentered the United States. Is this information authenticate to verify that I have not spent more than 180 days outside the United States for each trip?
2)In the time I have spent in the United States, I have taken about 5 trips outside the United States that have lasted less than 180 days (for each trip). So do I qualify for the continuous resident requirement and the physical resident requirement apply for citizenship, correct?
3)What is the current requirement for "physical presence" in the United States? I read in the Guide for Naturalization (M-476) that generally you must be physically present in the United States for a certain number of months in order to be eligible for naturalization.
Any lawyer or anybody that has recent experience could help me that would be great.
Your assistance is appreciated
Thanks!
