Get an application.

 

^ that's funny, but very true. Well actually, it depends on what regional office your address falls in. I've heard as fast as 3 months and as long as couple of years. If you get an attorney (fake btw. they are paralegal,....attorney helper/attorney wanna be), then it's sure gonna be a couple of years.

 

Jesus! the fastest would be 3 months?? My mom read an article in the Korean newspaper about how it's almost impossible to become a citizen after you turn 21 ... But if that's not the case I have another problem, I'm currently enrolled in a community college and I am registered as a "U.S Citizen" (Was too lazy to put in the info for my green card) and I really need to get this thing done before I transfer to a 4 year university or I'm basically going to get F**ked up the ass for fraudulent information. I epic'ed failed pretty hard on this one and hopefully I get DAMN lucky ... Do I print out the application from the http://www.uscis.gov? and just send it in?


And another thing, so that website I put up that charges $199 is utterly useless for me right? Since I am at the least "capable" of filing my own application and stuff?

Thanks for the help guys!

 

Which one would I qualify for to file my application? My entire family are citizens except me ... And I've been living in the states for like 19 years.

 

Head down to mexico and jump over the fence back in to the U.S.... i heard, as a prize, you get free citizenship, healthcare and welfare if you can manage to pop out a few baby jumping beans (although that might be hard if you're korean?)

 

A guy I worked with got his citizenship last year. The process took about six months. He was in his late 20's and from Pakistan. It wasn't a difficult process from what he told me. You should be fine.

 

I am assuming you have a green card. If you do, it does not matter whether you are 20 or 80 years old.

Just go, pay the $700 or so fee and then wait for INS to call you. First you take the test, then 3-4 weeks later they call you again to take the oath.

I did it early this year and it took no longer than 7 months. I did not use an attorney, just filled the paperwork myself and sent it in. I am 32 btw.

If you do not have a green card ... then its another story.

Are you on a green card? Do you have residency in your state?
Do you work full time with a an employer that will verify? How long have you been working in the US for?
If you do not have a green card maybe you are eligible for an H1-B employment visa... After 6 years of working on H1b you can apply citizenship/greencard or take the quicker route and get married... No guarantees though.

Have a baby born in the US. He will automatically be a US citizen, which will allow you to become a Citizen...

I don't know what form you need to fill out from the mentioned links, an immigration lawyer should help with that.
Since they are part of Homeland Security now you have to make sure that all your documentation is perfect, with no gaps in between.


Or you can become Canadian, its alot easier

 

Post in the So Cal forum. There are loks of Koreans with connections that can help you out. BTW, why did you wait so long?

 

That's the number I remember. I'm probably wrong. His mom paid for it so beats the hell outta me.

Also, that wasn't a test question he got.. it was on his study guide for the test. But I think he had some pretty dumbass questions, but said it was really easy so I dunno!
