안녕하세요 변호사님,
기억 하실지 모르겠지만 지난 23년 11월에 '시민권 자격 날짜 계산과 입증' 이라는 제목으로 글을 올렸습니다. 그 이후 제가 시민권을 신청을 하였는데 오늘 거부 되었다고 나왔습니다. 그런데 거부 노티스를 읽으면서 이해가 안 되는 부분이 있어 글을 쓰게 되었습니다.
Continuous residence를 극복하기 위해 충분히 입증을 못 해서 거부당한 건 이해가 가는데 왜 미국체류 일수가 1/2가 넘는데도 불구하고 physically precence 요건이 충족하지 않았다고 쓰여있는지 모르겠습니다.
잦은 한국 출국 기록이 거부당한 이유에 포함될까요?
만약 제가 다시 신청을 하려면 가장 안전한 날짜는 언제가 되는건가요?
밑에는 제가 받은 거부 노티스 내용입니다. 긴글 읽어주셔서 감사합니다.
On December 7, 2011 you obtained permanent resident status in immigrant classification F33. USCIS
received your Form N-400 on November 18, 2023, and on January 16, 2024, you appeared for an
interview to determine your eligibility for naturalization.
During the interview and review of your application, you confirmed that you had been absent from the
United States for the following time periods:
Dates of absences and number of days absent from the United States:
06/15/2015 until 08/20/2019 274 days
04/05/2020 until 08/22/2020 138 days
05/01/2022 until 08/19/2022 109 days
05/04/2023 until 09/16/2023 134 days
05/04/2021 until 08/20/2021 107 days
You were absent 762 days from the United States during the statutory period. This total does not include your departure or arrival dates.
"During your interview, you were asked why you were out of the United States for almost a
year?" " You testified that you decided to take a gap after you graduated from high school.".
You must have been physically present in the United States for at least half of the 5-year statutory
period to be eligible for naturalization under section 316 of the Immigration and Nationality Act
(INA). You were not physically present in the United States for the required number of days before
filing your application for naturalization. See section 316(a)(1) of the Immigration and Nationality
Act (INA).
Therefore, you have not demonstrated that you meet the necessary physical presence requirement.
Additionally, you have not demonstrated the continuous residence requirements for naturalization.
Continuous residence may be disrupted by an absence from the United States of more than 6 months
but less than 1 year unless you establish that you did not abandon your residence during this period.
See INA 316(b) and Title 8, Code of Federal Regulations (8 CFR,) section 316.5(c)(1)(i)..

일견 심사관이 출국(absence)일수를 잘못 계산하여 거절한 것으로 보이긴 하지만, 거주(residence) 요건을 소명하지 못했기 때문에 차이가 없다고 할 수 있습니다.
