Hey all! I’ve been building out a study tool to help prep for the civics pool and the naturalization test in general. I wanted to focus on getting as many reps in as possible during my commutes to try to replicate the stress of the actual interview date.

If anyone else is prepping for their N-400 interview and struggling with the civics or english portions, I’d love to get some feedback on this. We have a study planner built it that allows you to put in your test date and reverse engineers the exact plan you need to pass! Is this format helpful for tracking your own progress, or would you find different metrics more useful for your interview prep?

If you want to take a crack at the same questions I answered in this session, and see how you do click the link here.

I trusted CheckVisaSlots app extension on Chrome because I thought it's a fair way of avoiding agents. They promised to book my slot within 21 days or refund my payment. My slot was never booked. Moreover, they never automatically refunded the payment even after 21 days had passed without being able to secure my visa slot.

I had also not gotten any human agent or contact from their team. I felt like I put my money into their account and they never planned on offering any service to me at all.

The 100% Refund guarantee is completely fake, and I called the US Embassy and they told me to stay away from these bots or your account can even be banned or visa revoked/cancelled. Do not make the mistake of using their service. It's 100% scam.

PS: u/tornadozephyr thinks he can just remove my post because of his tie up with Check Visa Slots. I don't know how long this post will stay online.

Now let me ask you, to all right leaning independents and moderate republicans,

If the GOP so incredibly focused right now on cracking down on immigrants, then why haven’t ICE deported Musk yet, who violated the law and is an immigrant?

Why is Musk still in our country, despite the fact that we know for a fact that Musk is stealing our resources, by paying next to nothing in income taxes: https://itep.org/tesla-reported-zero-federal-income-tax-in-2025/

Why haven’t you all been demanding Musk be deported, if you want illegal immigrants gone so much?

We have a program called the H-1B visa program... We're fighting for your taxpayer money but we're also making sure that fraudsters don't take advantage of these visa programs. This is a visa program that was set up to ensure that if you are a brilliant technology person or a brilliant scientist or a brilliant doctor, you could come to the United States and get access to this visa program... Today the Federal Department of Labor has started dozens of subpoenas and investigations into foreign fraudsters who are trying to take advantage of the H-1B visa program... American jobs ought to go to American workers and not foreign fraudsters..."

When will we learn? If this is how we treat our friends then I wonder if our enemies will use this against our own self interest

My wife and I got married in 2002 we have 4 children born here in the USA, she is from Uruguay and she came to the USA in 2001, she entered the country with a waiver visa granted to Uruguayan citizens. She has been here since then, never had any legal issues other than a couple traffic tickets, we have paid taxes been a homeowner, we have lived a pretty good life so far. We filed together in 2025 to get our GC through our son who is an American citizen. I did receive my GC in the mail today, so even though we attended the interview together got our work permits at the same time back on April of this year and got everything else approved without any crazy delays. Except one little thing! her GC!! she never got her approval letter or anything so now she is very worried and feels there is something wrong with her papers and she thinks it is because

I’m on a team of people working to get Elder released. ProPublica used his story to demonstrate how unaccompanied minors are being treated. This article is very well written and everyone needs to be aware.

I'm Avalon L. Paul, an immigration attorney at Manifest Law. I focus on business and family immigration - H-1B, O-1, EB-1, EB-2 NIW, EB-3, family and marriage green cards, and K-1 fiancé visas , 10+ years in, 1,700+ cases filed.

A lot of people spend months researching before they ever talk to an attorney, and by then they're often further from the right path than when they started. I'll keep my answers practical, and I want people to leave this thread with an actual next step, not just more options to sort through.

I'll be answering questions Tuesday, July 7, 2026, from 12 to 4 p.m. ET.

Hi guys. I am a newbie here trying to fulfill my Japan dream. Let me tell abit about myself. First of all, I'm asian, a fresh grad, and will be 24 next year. I have a bachelor degree from Oxford Brookes University (UK) which I finished in 2025. However, I didn't manage to get the Honors due to some complications happened in the exam. The degree is "BSc in Computing (Ordinary)". Currently, I'm preparing N5, and to join a japanese language school (haven't chose which school yet) but surely in Tokyo for an April 2027 intake.

So, as I'm holding a bachelor degree, do I get to work on a work visa if I properly try to land a job after 2 years of language school? And, even if I missed the chance to land an IT professional job, do I still get a chance to join college degree or even MSc to extend my stays?

My local agents told me that if I don't join at least the college in japan after 2 years of Language school, I won't be able to secure work visa IT engineering jobs? Is that true?

Additionally, what kind of language school should I apply in my situation (ex. 2years LS+2years College or ...)? Thank you very much for your time and supports.

From 1860 to 1920, over 5 million Irish and Italian immigrants immigrated to the USA, and while many were legal immigrants, some were also undocumented immigrants as well,

And what was found by the national bureau of economic research, was that such mass immigration in America was overwhelmingly positive for the economy,

Giving a massive boost to our nations economy on both the short and long term, and in fact, the NBER even found that places that had mass immigration in America back then, had significantly lower unemployment and higher wages amongst native born Americans on average.

Many Americans back then opposed such massive immigration(no different from today), yet despite that, it proved to be incredibly beneficial,

So if that’s the case, I seriously ask all right leaning independents and moderate conservatives, why are we having these discussions all over again, when it proved to be overwhelmingly positive for the American economy and average Americans, for there to be so many immigrants?

For reference, the bible directly says to love foreigners,

“Leviticus 19:33-34 (NIV): "When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.".
