Hi VJ friends,

I've a package ready to be sent for naturalization process (N-400) for my mom who has been in US for over 5 years without any trip out of US that lasted more than 6 months.

Here are the things I've so far in package

1. N-400 application (signed and dated)

2. A personal check of $675.00 written for Department of Homeland Security

3. Two (2) passport-sized photograph (with name and green card # written lightly on the back in pencil)

4. Copy of green card (front and back)

5. G-1145 form - E-Notification of Application Petition Acceptance

Is there anything I am missing? I appreciate your help. This list seem so small compared to the list of all the other process that I've gone through or read about so it's making me paranoid :)

Thank you!!!

Not for a 5-yr naturalization - you're good to go.

See the USCIS actually came out with an evidence check list at http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/attachments.pdf. Was up in the air about tax returns for the five year, but just not listed for the five year. So I gather what you have is sufficient.

Sure doesn't say anything about a stupid utility bill for marriage, our friend got hit with that with a major delay, so I got one for my wife and she was asked to see it. Now if they can get the IO's to read the requirements, that would be nice.

Wow, for utility bill??? That just doesn't make sense. We stay with my family so we obviously wont have utility bill or rent or whatever. Almost makes me wonder if it's better to just wait for 5 years instead of messing with the 'evidence'-drama with 3-year requirement.

Read post here where most people had very good and short interviews at both the Chicago and St. Paul's offices. Our friend and my wife just happened to get a b!tch. Is it because of our income? My wife was very professional and very well dressed? We had our home deed with both of our names on in, joint property taxes, four years of joint tax returns, several shared bank accounts, insurance, joint ownership on vehicles, etc., I don't know, maybe we had too much evidence that led to suspicion. But she was asked, and she had one electric bill with both our names on it, so was approved. Hopefully, you won't have a b!tch for an IO, most here did not.

Been on this board for a couple of years now, only once did an IO want to meet the applicants spouse, wife's IO wouldn't even say hi to me. Just our rotten dirty luck to get a person like that.

If there's anything like a "perfect" package, this is it.

Everything that's needed, nothing that isn't.

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.
