Form N-400 questions, Please Help!

[user19000 18]

Hello,

 

I'm filling out my N-400 form. The instruction says 'type in N/A if the item is not applicable or the answer is none. 

 

So because I don't have any children, in the box for children should I type in "N/A" or "0"? 

 

Also in the part 6 Information about your parents, the instruction says "If neither of your parents is a US citizen then skip this part and go to part 7". 

 

Then should I skip it totally, meaning leaving all the boxes blank or should I type in "N/A"?

 

Same question for Part 10 Information about your marital history: should I type in "N/A" for the answers about my current spouse (I have none) or should I skip them and go to the part about my ex spouse?

 

I'm thinking of changing my name because it is impossible for people here to pronounce and I end up having to give a lengthy explanation. I've gotten really tired of it. Has any of you here changed your name and got in any trouble later?

 

I hope to hear back from you. 

 

Thank you.

Someone please help! I know many of you have filled out the revised N400 form so you must know what I should do.

If you don't have any kids, just type "none" in one of the first boxes and skip all the sections involving children. As for part 6 if neither of your parents are U.S. citizens just leave it blank and skip it all together as instructed and move to the next section. With regards to marital history you can write "N/A" on one of the top fields and skip the rest since you've never been married. You can choose to change your name but you will instead get but a judicial oath ceremony and not an administrative one like everyone else. Yours will be specially scheduled because of the name change since it's the court that approves a name change not uscis administration.
