Photocopy of Naturalization card = copy of green card (front and back)

We are filing after three years for citizenship based on my wifes marriage to a US citizen (which would be me). According to the instructions we need to show proof that I am a citizen. We did that with a copy of my birth certificate and US passport.

I think 13 and 14 actually aren't necessary. Does anyone else know for sure? I would like to find out - don't want to send things I don't have to, but also don't want to leave things out and get RFE. Are those things needed for the interview? Oh wait - maybe they're just not necessary if you send tax transcripts...?

Anyway, as far as I can tell, it looks like a good list.

Best of luck!

Good list but why does your status still say K-1?
