I am in need of an expert advice.
I applied for my naturalization in Jan 2011 and had my interview (May 17) and passed my civil test. While the officer was going through the questions on my N-400 application she asked if "I have ever registered to vote” and I said no.
Here is the story, I completely forgot (I know this may sound like a lie) that I registered in Feb 2008. I got the voters card but I can’t even find it and I never voted. Now, I forgot about this fact when I completed my application and only remembered when she asked the question - I went like this. "I think I registered and she said you registered? I said I did something in the DMV at this stage she had a weird look on her face and I quickly said hmmm, maybe not and she checked the boxed (I had ‘No’ checked anyway).
So, I applied for a name change too and was told I will hear back from them when a decision is made. I rushed back home first to look for d voter’s card and decided to look my name up online. It came up as "registered". My heart sunk
What do I do now? I have spent my entire day brooding about what the outcome will be as I clearly know there is no honest mistake in America. Should I call INS? Should I get a lawyer involved? I read on a couple of forums today that many who were as ignorant as I was went and canceled their voter’s registration. But I have completed my interview and was under oath! Help please…….Thanks!
