    Label documents for citizenship application

    Actually not all pages do like the 2nd page of residency calculator pages. And also my diplomas have my maiden name on them.. I was just thinking if I don't label them and they get misplaced then that's an issue.

    Label documents for citizenship application

    Landing - "New Items"

    When I landed they didn't really ask me anything. They just had me verify the info on my COPR and sign & initial a couple places. The only only question they asked me was "Why would you want to move here from Hawaii??" LOL.
