I got my Form N-550 right in front of me.

the documents allowed to verify whether you are in the states legally says front and back copy...the back of the certificate is blank. does that matter?

also it states on the certificate that "it is punishable by US Law to copy, print, or photograph this certificate without lawful authority"....would applying for a CHL classify as lawful authority?

Goin in for finger prints tomorrow, and im ready to get this sent out and over with.

thanks for all your help!

I did print and send in a copy of the front and the blank back, actually the back isnt blank, there is a seal impression on it, maybe they want that just to be sure.

As for the " do not copy", it is being requested by "authorities", so don't worry about that.

It's funny when I got my Utah CFP back in 08. I got a letter about 45 days in stating that I needed to provide proof of my citizenship. I called the office and was talking to the lady and told her all I had was a Naturaluzation paper, but it said not to copy it, she then said "We don dont worry what the Feds say, just go ahead and make a copy and send it in, and well get that license out to you".

like the avatar...go coogs!

i got my naturalization certificate in 2004.

but the problem is it doesnt state the place of birth. only my previous nationality which is indian. but i was born in dubai.

wonder if that will create an issue?

Wont create any issue. I was born in Mexico while my parents were on vacation. I have always had a Certificate of Naturalization and no where on it does it state where I was born. When I applied I sent it in as my proof and at no point was it an issue.
