The fee for fingerprinting is $70. 12,000,000 immigrants X $400 = $4,800,000,000.00 – That ’s Four BILLION, Eight Hundred MILLION dollars – and this is only for submitting the application, and does NOT include the fees once the applications have been approved. This is just the tip of the iceberg of what the United States will lose – and pay – for the invasion.] The INS application form for Naturalization, N-400, is ten pages long. The N-400 instruction-packet is seven pages long. The Guide for filling out the form (not to be confused with the instructions), whether in English or Spanish, is sixty-six pages long. On page 2 of the instructions, there is a section entitled “When am I eligible to Apply?” This section specifies: You may apply for naturalization when you meet all the requirement to become a U.S. citizen. The section of the Guide called “Who is Eligible for Naturalization” and the Eligibility Worksheet found in the back of the Guide are tools to help you determine whether you are eligible to apply for Naturalization. You should complete the Worksheet before filling out this N-400 application. Section H, P 3 of the instructions: Request for Disability Waiver – If you have a medical disability or impairment that you believe qualifies you for a waiver of the tests of English and/or U.S. government and history, check “Yes” and attach a properly completed Form N-648. If you ask for this waiver it does not guarantee that you will be excused from the testing requirements… The FBI also reviews part of the application, takes fingerprints, and runs background checks on the applicants. Part 5, p 4

you were married to the same spouse more than one time, write
