Congrats to your friends, big step

FYI to OP there is a time limit on when she can get in via special enrollment so definitely get on this ASAP ... I believe it's 30 (or maybe 60) days from the day she moves here. It appears 60 days. She just arrived in the US 2 weeks ago, so we should be good. Now I try to find out if she needs a SSN for it, currently she does not have one yet

I think that's the way to go, will look into. She is 71, but I believe she does not qualify for Medicare yet, as she needs to be resident for 5 years I believe. I will check ACA

My mother in-law just arrived and will be staying with us (approved GC immigration), she does not have health insurance and my employee plan would not cover her. Any affordable individual plans we could look into?

We live less then a mile away from the one in Plano. Good selection

In Texas here (Dallas), my wife N-400 also took almost 2 years, she got her citizenship last March

Hefe-Vollkorn-Bier - its really a wheat beer, made of whole grain... that what it supposed to mean, but I have never seen this in Germany And the other german words "Verkostung und beste koestliche produktion", these are german words, but together in this sentence, doesn't make sense. Means something like "Consume and delicious production"

N-600 is an add on for documentation. Son actually becomes a citizen, when your wife applies for the passport and brings the son along. All you need is the birth certificate showing he is her son. We just went thru N-400 and will apply for passport this week. I still recommend N-600 for future reference, its a nice document.

My wife did 3 things 1) downloaded audio of all 100 questions onto iPhone 2) converted the form questions and answers into audio files 3) attended an English class specialized on citizenship test Since it took 12 months from scheduling the interview to actually having the interview, she had plenty of time to listen to all the audio in the car while driving. My daughter and I also got the pleasure of listening to it for a year. She just passed the test in December

Awesome, we all know how that feels.

My wife had her interview on Friday 27th in Guangzhou together with our daughter. Process was very smoothly, its off to pack the bag. The whole process was almost 2 years, but happy to get through the finish line. I put my wife's review out below. The only thing I am upset about is that she drools about the "handsome blond foreigner VO", oh well http://www.visajourney.com/reviews/view-dos-cis-reviews.php?entry=12409

How did you manage to get out of obedience school for 1% ?, please tell me the secret

To amplify this and turn this argument 180 degrees. I was not even born in America, born in Europe and my family is from there, my parents never lived in the US. I am actually the immigrant here (now USC), and everyone assumes my whole family was here for generations.

During our process, we might have done something wrong and lost the birth certificate for my wife. As she was born in the 70's in Guangzhou, where can a new birth certificate be issued?

Apples, lots of apples in the fridge. Why strange? They all came from a vacation trip, collected from the hotel elevator bank where they had free apples for the guests.
