Hi!

I'm about to mail out the N-400 application. On the question asking how many times the spouse has been married do I answer 1? He has only been married once with me. The reason why I ask is because the next questions asks if he has ever been married before to list the ex spouse's name. So, the answwer to the first question could also be 0 = he has been married 0 times before? It's confussing me if they are asking in general including me -- that would be 1 time. If they are asking before me, then it's 0. It's confussing.

Also, for sons and daughters we don't have any -- so I put 0 -- is this okay? or should I put n/a.

I want to get this right before I actually send it. Thanks very much in advance.

I just went back to check my N-400 application. On the question asking how many times the spouse has been married, I answered 1. Then for the ex spouse's name, I wrote n/a on those. Maybe I did it wrong. But it seems OK with the USCIS.

For kids, put 0 should be fine.

You identified some of the poorly phrased questions, and I remember vividly that I was struggling with them as well.

If your husband has not been married before, and you are his first and so far only wife, then the answer is 1 indeed.

In regard to the sons and daughters, I'd put 0 in there, as N/A could mean -- to an intellectually challenged person -- that you have children that were born without genitals.

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.
