Hello again Everyone,

Getting ready to file the N-400 application (based on the 3-year rule) and have been wondering about evidence to send...

(Just waiting for the IRS transcripts to arrive in the mail, and will be all set to file).

Considering that all evidence referring to the marriage has been sent before, and will take it all again to the interview

(lease, bank accounts, insurance paperwork, bills, etc.), wanted to poll everyone to see, if it should all be filed, also...

According to USCIS:

"Documents referring to you and your spouse:

• Tax returns, bank accounts, leases, mortgages, or birth certificates of children, or

• Internal Revenue Service (IRS)-certified copies of the income tax forms that you both filed for the past three years, or

• An IRS tax return transcript for the last three years."

They clearly state we have to send either OR... so, not wanting to overwhelm them (and having been "scolded" by them before, for sending/ taking too much -by the IO at our initial interview couple of years ago), but still wanting to be on the safe side... Please let me know what You think.

Good luck to all!

And thanks for all VJers support and sharing of experiences along this long journey :)

You can send in a few things - definitely not a lot to get them upset :) but sometimes that is good.
