I had a quick question: I'm filing this coming February on basis of marriage to a US citizen for the past 3 years. Right now, I've filled out the form up to the past 5 years, as the form says. Is this okay, or should I only report on the past 3 years?

It is correct the way you filled it. If the form says 5 years, you have to put that specifically, regardless of the time of your relationship.

The N-400 always says 5 years, but I am eligible for naturalization after 3 years when filing based on marriage to US citizen spouse. Hence why I'm wondering if I should only be filling out the form for the past 3 years, or just follow what the form says.

I would play it safe and just fill it out according to the form instructions, so 5 years. :)

Another question: My packet is ready to be sent tomorrow, but I just realized that it's 2015 tax season right now. I have not filed taxes for last year, but I do have the transcripts from 2012 2013 and 2014. Is this good? Or do I need to include 2015?
