Thanks a lot. Please give explanation for those who stayed outside of the USA for two years with permission from USCIS

[@flipmex1]

Filed in March of this year. I’m in California. Been a LPR for over 34 years. I’m 35. Completed the Biometrics back in July. Still waiting on a Civics Test appointment. Estimated time to case completion still shows another 10 months on USCIS website. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@kingsafa3565]

What I didn't hear and wanted to hear is once you've applied for citizenship then how long does it take before you get approved and become a citizen? 1 year 2 years a year and a half 3 years what? May the internet answer me please thank you...

[@tariqfate9350]

informatic video

[@manjurelahi2640]

Your video was great indeed. I got a question on continous residence - If I make 2-3 months trip every year continously for 5-years while my house lease and job are in active, am I disrupting the continous residence? Can I apply for naturalization right after 5-years. This multiple trips will be made to see family members because I don't have anybody here in the US. I will appreciate if you can answer this based on your experience.

[@purukrishnamurthy2960]

I am in the same exact position too where I have to go to see my wife every 2-3 months in a year. I hear about less than 180 days you can stay out of the country. Some lawyers say you should not travel much...so I don't know, I saw on the immigration forum some have got rejected because of excess travel.

[@janemugo8255]

Thanks so much you explain very well

[@chethanicolombathantri2966]

Regarding the physical presence requirement, which requires the resident to stay atleast half of the time in US - does the 2.5 years have to at a stretch?

[@jonathantjoaalgreen27]

Does the rule of 'continues residence' also apply to your kids below 21 years old?

[@lukaivanovski2734]

How about if I have green card for example 2 years and then I get married. Do I still have to be married for at least three years? Because three years of marriage are equally valuable as 5 years on my own. Does the combination of the two change things? Thanks!

[@sophiatullochbourne2481]

Good evening I apply for my citizenship April 2020 I went in and did my fingerprint in February 2021 that is almost 10 months now do you think that there is something I should be worried about

[@Eddie-3466]

I need help getting my wife a Visa. I am from the United States and it been over a year since we filled with the Lawer in Acapulco .

[@michaeltesfay2765]

I have a question regarding Asylum holder , if my application for green card is still pending for approval . In my case I applied for adjustment in 2019 and still it is pending does this two years count toward my neutralization or I have to apply for neutralization four years after my green card is approved

[@manojvenkataraman6971]

The continuous presence part is not clear. Should it be more than 180 days outside the US for any given trip or 180 days outside the US in a given year? Please clarify.

[@jeanilynpailaga1708]

Hello I have been a permanent resident for 20 year, I applied Jan 2022 for citizenship, In the application they only go for last 5 years? Can I get an opinion?

[@WholeSaleFabric]

Mr. Ashoori thank you for the informative videos. I had a question if you can please explain. I applied for citizenship on oct 01, 2020 and have only received two letters back from USCIS, one for biometeics resue and the receipt of application acknowledgement. I applied online when i check the status it still says another approx. 8 months till completion. My question is i had a new child on oct, 02, 2021. Do I have to do anything to amend the application to add the child before the interview ? Please kindly respond.

If somebody gets married to a US citizen, he can apply for the citizenship after 3 years. How about if that person gets married to a green card holder? Does that 3 year rule still apply? Or is that 5?

[@sufiyanjunaid6992]

5 years

[@done5060]

It is 5yrs however some cases depends.

10 years green card holder when will he or she fill for citizenship

[@miyanaru5481]

I applied for my citizenship while living in the state of Wisconsin(in May), then I moved to Florida in June and I tried to contact USCIS to tell them and I never was able to get an answer, then I was told I had an interview in august in Wisconsin but I couldn’t make it there and I already tried to change my address on my account then I wrote a letter and explain everything and they changed my address on my account but they updated my status to no one showed up to the meeting. So I’ve been waiting for them to reschedule but they haven’t. My green cArd end in May 11. Could I try to get it expedited? Or what are my options?

[@engiedaram6407]

you should have change your address within 10 days since you got a new address and let them know you won’t be able to make it in WI. They might dropped off your case…

[@nimry80]

I have been married since 2017 ,I got my green card few months ago & they gave me the '10 YEARS GREEN CARD ' my question is👇 how early /soon can I apply for naturalization ??

[@done5060]

If you are married to a citizen… and also remain married for at least 3yrs… you are cleared to apply for naturalization after the 3rd year. In some states, you can apply when the 3yr duration has 60days to be completed. On the other hand, if you are married to a permanent Resident - who decides to maintain his/her permanent residency, you can only naturalize after 5yrs.

[@nimry80]

@@done5060 3 years after the issue date of the green card?? Or the date of marriage ,note that I got the 10 years green after 4 years waiting on pending case,they didn't give me the 2 years green card

[@done5060]

@@nimry80 this is why every case is different, nevertheless, look at the issue date on your green card… irrespective of how long you waited, N400 process uses your issue date. Calculate 5 years from your issue date and apply. *Second Preference:* if you had your green card before getting married to a citizen for at least 3years, you can go ahead and apply for naturalization immediately, however it is important for you to upload your marriage certificate as one of the documents in your N400 application. As you can see I provided two answers.. please feel free to book a session with an immigration attorney for clarity if you are still confused. Every case is always different irrespective of the timeline required. I hope it is clear to you..
