I will be filing for my citizenship on June 20. I filled out the application. I see where it says to send 2 pictures and a copy of my green card (back and front). I would like to know what other documentation to send with it, and how far back I should go. Say for eg, bank statements... should I send from beginning of marriage or from the last one sent to get conditions remove, which was in August last year. Thank you for your responses.

You don't send any of the stuff that's not required. But since you will have an interview, you'll take some documents with you, just in case the I.O. is doubting that your marriage is still ongoing.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

Technically not, since the M476 instruction check list mentions that you can send

Leases, Mortgages, Birth Certificates (or)

IRS tax transcripts.

But i sent them anyway.
