I assembled my N-400 application (finally) and I could use a few extra pairs of eyes to make sure that I have everything I need.

Situation: I am applying for naturalization based on 5 years of permanent residency in the US. I am divorced from my immigration sponsor (as of 2011) and we had no dependents. I don't need to send in my marriage certificate with the divorce decree, do I?

I think you are fine. I am not sure about the passport pages though. You are applying based on 5-year residency, so you do not need that. You can double-check the checklist here: http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/attachments.pdf

you don't need copy of your passport now, the officer will want it at the interview. I didn't send in a cover letter, just sent in the few documents that you mentioned.

form, copia of GC front and back, check, 2 passport photos and copy of my divorce decree for 5 year residency.

My application basis is very similar to yours (5-year, divorced) and I think you package is fine. You don't need a copy of your passport and you can submit one check/money order for everything.

I'm dropping off my application tomorrow. If you're submitting your application in December as well, please join the December 2012 filers thread and share your timeline.

More than actually needed. But I would suggest to replace that money order with a personal check.

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.
