Default Going for CITIZENSHIP

A good time to go for it ...

"The cost of becoming a U.S. citizen could increase by 80 percent late this spring, from $330 to $595, federal Immigration officials announced this morning"

You can find it all here, page 85.

http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedoc...oposedRule.pdf

BTW, the processing times quoted will give you some comic relief.

These are proposed changes, not actual. They still have a long way to go to be approved. But, regardless of whether USCIS gets their way this time, the writing's on the wall. Might want to get those apps in real soon...
