Did you apply based on three years of residency, and married to a US citizen, or, based on five years of residency?

based on 3 years marriage

if you divorce or separate while in process of N400:

based on 3 years of marriage . . .

are you going to be deported? No, you are still a permanent resident

are they gonna deny your N400 application? if you are no longer married to the US citizen yes, they will deny the N400 and you would have to reapply after 5 years.

is your status as an immigrat will be in danger? No

can u stillbecome a citizen after the interview? (if you pass the test) You need still to be married to your US spouse in order to get US citizenship after 3 years so even if you pass the test and interview but are no longer married to your spouse your application will be denied because you are no longer eligible to become a citizen after 3 years.

can you apply again later? Yes, you can apply after 5 years which is the usual length of waiting time

can u still have the right to apply? Yes, after 5 years

and so on..and on....

thanks guys

thanks kathyrin for your answers, one more question: what if you go to the interview and you are still married, but separated, i mean not living together at the same house..but still legally married, is that gonna affect anything? and ofcourse you will have evidence of marriage like bills and bank accounts and so on with you in the day of he interview.

so, what do you may happen in this case???

Do you like history? Use to take one month to become a USC here, depending on the mood of congress, that expanded to five years. But from some wildass statistics, married immigrants made better citizens, so a 3 year marriage privilege was instituted. Mood can change at any time, even to the point of legalizing 20 million illegals, who knows, my crystal ball has a crack in it. We are a republic form of government where only a couple of guys are in charge, even idiots.

Whatever regarding the history or why these laws were formed, the USCIS treats them like they were engraved in stone from God Almighty himself and to the nth degree. For marriage, you must be living together, paying bills together, and sharing all assets, they never asked us how many times a day we are having sex, if this is not your case, you are effectively lying to your interviewing officer and the consequences can be great. It's a risk not worthwhile to take, just to save two years for getting your USC. If I were you, would wait those two years if you can't get your marriage back together again. Ha, was almost tempted to even wait those two extra years to save all that ####### that was involved with proving that you are married again, and sharing all of your bills and assets. We even had to prove that we were eligible to even get married, not that we already had to do that to get a license.

If you are separated at the time of your interview, you do not qualify for citizenship under the "three year" basis, and your application will be rejected. To qualify as "married" by USCIS terms, you can't be separated.
