Even as a joke this disgusts me.

I remember all too well from my first set of interviews for 
residency.  The interviewer was absolutely convinced that I was 
trying to scam the government, that is until she asked for 
documentary evidence that Wendy and I were married. Aside from the 
certificate that is.  I had waited until my  J-1 Foreign Researcher 
visa was about to expire and so was able to present to them a lot of 
documentation. When I gave the person 4 years of cancelled cheques, 
all here response was Oh, My.

Needless to say there was no problems after that. I cannot say that 
about the guy a couple of cubicles down from my interview. They were 
giving him quite the 3rd degree about a couple of arrests.

I've taken a few practice tests for the citizenship exam and have 
done fairly well on it. I really should complete the process this 
year - its a dilemma? $150 for the CFMX cert or the $250 (plus) for 
the citizenship...
