Zhou Zhou Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 How is that equated to "limits"? There are countries that the government doesn't allow u.s. citizens to go. Every time I take medical and humanitarian aid to Cuba I have to go illegally. Only been caught once but it makes one feel uncomfortable. Link to comment

And my qizi has no plans to travel to Cuba or anywhere else. I don't know her reasoning in wanting American citizenship except I remember how fascinated she was when she first came here with the idea of voting and to vote. Maybe that had something to do with it. Link to comment
Zhou Zhou Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Reagan, made it unlawful for Usonians to travel to Cuba...he and all the others were going to bring their government to their knees. I'm sure your lao po will have a good time selecting politicos...but why doesn't she want to travel? If I ever get my lao po here to the states I want to show her the country and Canada and all over the Americas...it'll be a lot of fun, if the money and the Dodge hold up. Link to comment

samsong Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Congratulations to your wife and to you on completing the WHOLE process. Feels pretty good right? Tine & EllaHi Tine. Thanks. Yeah, it's all over now, 4/27/2009. It's been a long ways since first filing the I-130 in 2002. Yep, a long ways, but it's over now. What am I going to do with myself if I'm not filing any immigration forms? Link to comment
The Jeff Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Does your wife have any family in China? You could start there! I'm sure there will always be some kind of forms that you could find to fill out. Link to comment
bla Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Not only becoming a US citizen allows you to vote, it also allows you to sit on a jury! I just got my jury duty day but I am not a U.S citizen yet. Is this normal? Link to comment
Randy W Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 (edited) Not only becoming a US citizen allows you to vote, it also allows you to sit on a jury! I just got my jury duty day but I am not a U.S citizen yet. Is this normal? NO - you CANNOT sit on a jury, and may lose your right to apply for citizenship if you do (or is that for voting?) Be sure to notify them of your immigration status. They get names off the driver's license database and other places that can include non-citizens.

Jeikun Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Not only becoming a US citizen allows you to vote, it also allows you to sit on a jury! I just got my jury duty day but I am not a U.S citizen yet. Is this normal? Maybe a late reply anyway, but most of those forms have a box you can check to say "I am inelligable for jury duty" and then either a box to check for "I'm not a US citizen", or a line to write it on. Jun got one of those before too. Link to comment
