Well i did 1260 and spoke to someone. He wouldn't transfer me to an IO and just gave me the schpiel about normal processing times. I asked whether the IL had been sent out - he said he wouldn't be...

Re: Name Checks no longer to hold up green cards

ISn't there a catch-all of "fraud" which invalidates your citizenship or at least makes it revocable if you did not disclose relevant matters or mis-stated them? Clearly a criminal or "terrorist"...

Re: N-400 case status question
