Days outside the US
Hello everyone,

I applied for N400 in October 2020 through marriage to US citizen. (3 years rule)
My cumulation of days outside the US during the last five years was a little under a year (350 days) at the time of application.
In December 2020 I went back home for a month and I might go back in June.

Will the days I am leaving the USA AFTER my application was sent will be added to the 350 days and could future traveling be a problem?

Travel outside the US
Hello, my father tried to issue a passport based on his Naturalization certificate and find out that the naturalization certificate has a mistake, he filed to the USCIS to correct that mistake, unfortunately it takes between 12 to 20 months to be done. Is there any way for him to travel outside the US using his home country passport? Please note that his green card has been taken when he interviewed for naturalization.

Help in the next steps after getting Naturalization Certificate [with name change].
Hello ImmiHelp Community,

I read many posts here, and it helped me navigate the citizenship process thus far. So, thank you!

USCIS has placed me on the line for the Oath Ceremony. I hope I get it soon, and I will follow the process that comes with the notice. However, I have some questions about what I should do next. Also, I asked for a name change, so I wondered if someone can help me share their experience who had a name change.

In which order should I proceed? 1 or 2 below, or does it matter at all.

1. Update the record in the Social Security Office -> DMV -> Apply for Passport
2. Apply for passport -> updated the record in the Social Security Office -> DMV

Additionally, when you apply for OCI, is there something I should be aware of because of the name change?

I appreciate your help. And if there is anything else I should be doing once I receive the Naturalization Certificate, please let me know.

Thank you!

Naturalization N-400 Early filing clarification - Dallas
Hi, I'm completing 5 yrs continuous residence in US by 07/22 with green card. The current N-400 processing time is 15-16.5 months in Dallas. Does that mean, I can apply N-400 application 15 months ahead of 07/22, ie by 04/21?
Also please advise which is fast processing? paper filing or online? Thanks

How to talk to a real agent at USCIS on the phone?
Hi,
I had my interview a couple weeks ago in LA office and officer said I don't have your file here in my office to stamp. She said she should receive my file soon and will mail me the approval. However I didn't receive any mails yet and the online status is only shows the old message which is 'your interview was schaduled' with no uodates. I tried to talk to a USCIS officer on the phone, but the system doesn't allow me to talk to a real person. The only updates that I got from the machine responding is the "my interview was schaduled", which is same as my old online status.
Could you please advise me in how I could reach to a real officer on the phone?
Thanks
