CASE: N-400 (Citizenship / Naturalization)
APPLICANT: Malaysian
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client contacted us in October 2018 to seek legal representation for his naturalization and citizenship N-400 application. He came to the United States from Malaysia and obtained his green card in July 2013. When he applied for a driver’s license, showing his permanent residency card, he received in the mail a voter registration notice, even though he never mentioned that he was a US Citizen. He immediately notified the Board of Elections, and he later on obtained a “Notice of Cancellation of Voter Registration” notice.
Upon retention, we prepared his application, and we drafted an explanation about his “voter registration” incident. We also included the “Notice of Cancellation of Voter Registration” document. The whole situation was explained in detail as an attachment to his N-400 application. HIs N-400 application was filed on October 11, 2018 with all supporting documents. Prior to his citizenship interview, our office prepared him at our office. On December 20, 2018, our client appeared at the Cleveland, OH USCIS, accompanied by partner and attorney Sung Hee Yu, for his naturalization interview. Our client answered all questions correctly and he passed his naturalization and citizenship interview. Eventually, his application was approved on December 31, 2018. His oath taking is scheduled in which he will become a naturalized U.S. Citizen.
