Anyone still waiting for the notorious background checks after the N-400 interview?
Not much done on my case, I am sure of it. 9/11 they had a naturalization ceremony, I haven't received "an invitation" so I am guessing my stuff is still sitting on someone's desk or shelf. Next ceremony is on 12/7.
Unfortunately, I must say that while the military is somewhat helpful in preparing and mailiing your application, they are also somewhat hesitant to engage any difficulties encountered in the naturalization process in general. There are individual leaders in the military who are willing to do all they can.
Let me ask you of some advice. I am about to set an appointment with a military lawyer (a MAJ) whom I heard specializes in immigration cases. My 120 days after the interview is up on October 19th. I am willing to petition through the district court to demand a result in my case with the help of that lawyer.
However, my chain of command just stepped in to do whatever it takes to get my citizenship. I have a section chief Warrant Officer, a company First Sergeant, a Company commander Major, and more than likely a Battalion commander Colonel might step in.
Question, to complete this nonsense name check procedure that takes forever (which I honestly don't have) who do we have to call? US attorney? Atlanta CIS District Director?
Some of my leaders are suggesting that we should force the CIS respond by petitioning them through the federal court, however I think things can be done by negotiating with the person in charge there.
