Hello,

Earlier this year, my I-751 application was approved and so now I have a new green card to photocopy and send in with an application for citizenship. (The USCIS took my expired green card when I went to get a stamp in my passport & I didn't have a photocopy of it.)

I'm wondering if anyone knows what the timeline will be to file the N400 through Nebraska? I'd like an idea of when the test might be.

Also if anyone has any good links or advice I'd appreciate that too. We have a 7 week old daughter, so I don't have much time for researching all this online.

Thanks.

Congratulations! Here's some place to get started: http://uscis.gov/graphics/citizenship/index.htm

Best Wishes,

p.s. - I love your site! Very cute, and very informative!

Congrats on all your good news!

Even though you submit your application to Nebraska, I believe you watch your Local Office processing dates for planning purposes:
I guessed Milwaukee for you.

Currently processing Feb 01, 2005 & before.

Roughly 6 months then. Study hard!

Hello! I remember you from both here and LYC.com (I'm Andelina over there, remember me?). Your website was a tremendous help to us when we were about to go through the K1 visa process ourselves.

Haven't heard from you in a long while so I'm glad that things are going so well for you! Congratulations on your baby girl!! What's her name?

Hope to see you around again...

EDITED TO ADD: Never mind -- just looked at your site... Her name is Rose, like Doctor Who's companion in the current series! Mark would be so impressed!

SECOND EDIT: Yes, I'm a doofus for responding to my own post with an edited comment, instead of clicking "EDIT", duh! That's why I deleted it, if anyone wondered or cared... I always wonder what people had written when they delete their posts...

Thanks for the replies & congrats.

I didn't realise the timeline to watch is Milwaukee, so thanks for that.

6 months is a much shorter timeline than I would have guessed - maybe because it took 17 months to get the I-751 approved.

I'm really not looking forward to studying - history & politics are my least favourite subjects.

Hi Jenney. I remember you. Hope all is well in your life.

Congratulations all around on your good news.

As for the studying, the test is not difficult. Just study the 100 questions that came with the guide. You won't have a problem with the reading and written part of the test.

Thanks Rete.

That's good to know about the test. I picked up the naturalization guide a couple of years back. The study guide is from 12/00 with 96 questions. I think they have sample questions online too.

What if, for the written part, the guy says, "Write the following statement: 'Do me a favor and mail this check'." and she writes, "Do me a favour and mail this cheque"? I bet that'll raise a few eyebrows! Okay... I'm just teasing!
