American Tribute is once again sponsoring a 4 of July Contest!!

American Tribute is once again sponsoring a 4 of July Contest!!

Make 2020 the year that you become a U.S. Citizen! American Tribute is sponsoring an “Independence Day” contest to have your USCIS fees paid when you submit your application for naturalization. Make sure you read the complete rules before you enter!
You must have “liked” the Facebook page of American Tribute.
Enter by private messaging the Facebook page of “American Tribute“. You must include contact information (email and phone number) and the phrase:
“I want to be an American. The 4th of July is Independence Day!” in the message. The message must be in English.
You must actually enter the contest – entries in previous contests are not automatically carried over; entries can be made up to the deadline of noon on July 4th, 2020.
You must be a permanent resident (have a green card), live in the United States, and are otherwise eligible to naturalize. Please check the USCIS web page to make sure that you are eligible. See https://www.uscis.gov/us-citizenship/citizenship-through-naturalization/path-us-citizenship
https://www.uscis.gov/…/citizenship-thr…/path-us-citizenship to determine if you are eligible to naturalize.
You are ineligible for the contest if you have already filed your form N-400.
You must not have a criminal record. You must not owe traffic tickets, court fees, license reinstatement fees, taxes or child support.
You must have a completed form N-400 or have all the information necessary to complete one.
A winner will be chosen by random drawing at 3 p.m. Central time on July 4th, 2020. American Tribute will make every effort to announce the winner by noon Central time on July 5th, 2020.
The winner will have until July 27th, 2020 to confirm eligibility and help prepare N-400 paperwork. If the winner does not have a completed N-400 by July 27, 2020, the prize will expire. American Tribute reserves the right to select an alternate winner if the initial winner is ineligible.
This is not a cash prize – American Tribute will pay your USCIS fee to submit your form N-400 Application for Naturalization, but WILL NOT pay you any money directly.
Any other costs (Passport Photos, Translations, Postage, Notary etc.) will be the responsibility of the winner.
In order to submit the filing fee, American Tribute will review your completed form, then attach the fee payment and mail the form to USCIS.
This is done to ensure that the fees paid by American Tribute are sent in on a properly filled out form for someone that is eligible to naturalize – fees are lost if the application is denied due to ineligibility. Therefore, electronic submission of the N-400 is not possible.
The winner agrees to cooperate with the legal team of American Tribute to get the naturalization form properly filed, and all communications will be through the legal team. The winner will be responsible for providing the necessary documents to pursue naturalization.
The winner agrees to allow publication of their name and image (photo/video) on the American Tribute website and Facebook page, both after being announced as the winner and after they become a U.S. citizen. Failure to cooperate will result in a termination of the prize.
This contest is not an offer of legal representation.
Determination of eligibility is subject to review by the Project Manager.
American Tribute is a project of FCM Enterprises, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation.

USCIS to Continue Processing Applications for Employment Authorization Extension Requests Despite Application Support Center Closures

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services today announced that it will reuse previously submitted biometrics in order to process valid Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, extension requests due to the temporary closure of Application Support Centers (ASC) to the public in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This announcement is consistent with existing USCIS authorities regarding the agency’s ability to reuse previously submitted biometrics.

Applicants who had an appointment scheduled with an ASC on or after the March 18 closure or has filed an I-765 extension will have their application processed using previously submitted biometrics.  This will remain in effect until ASCs are open for appointments to the public.

  • Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
  • Presidents’ Day
  • Memorial Day
  • Independence Day
  • Labor Day

Many Americans celebrate national or federal holidays. These holidays often honor people or events in our American heritage.

These holidays are “national” in a legal sense only for federal institutions and in the District of Columbia. Typically, federal offices are closed on these holidays. Each state can decide whether or not to celebrate the holiday. Businesses, schools, and commercial establishments may choose whether or not to close on these days.

Since 1971, federal holidays are observed on Mondays except for New Year’s Day, Independence Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
