    NEED HELP: Citizenship Application Declined

    Been reading this thread with interest. My two cents.......just withdraw and re-apply. You are definitely not going to get it on this application. I am actually surprised they never gave you more heat for overstaying your visitor visa.

    April 2018 - Citizenship Applicant

    Our interviewer asked 3 questions. One was do you have any of the prohibitions on these forms?
