Denial of citizenship doesn’t affect GC unless they found out GC was obtained with false documents.

 

for evidence, may be start with reading instructions

To send it’s not much or you can send the ones being asked for interview. 

 

Just a list from page 11 of n400 instructions, to bring for interview

 

 

A. Spouse of a U.S. Citizen. Bring the following items to your interview if you are applying for naturalization on the basis of your marriage to a U.S. citizen:
(1) Evidence that your spouse has been a U.S. citizen for at least 3 years at the time you file your Form N-400. Such evidence may include: a birth certificate (if your spouse never lost U.S. citizenship since birth), Certificate of Naturalization, Certificate of Citizenship, or Form FS-240 Report of Birth Abroad of a Citizen of the United States of America;
(2) Evidence of the termination of all your prior marriages; and
(3) Evidence that you and your spouse have lived in marital union for at least 3 years at the time you file your
Form N-400. Such evidence may include:
(a) Joint bank and credit card statements;
(b) Leases or mortgages;
(c) Birth certificates of children;
(d) Insurance policies; and
(e) Internal Revenue Service (IRS)-certified copies of the income tax forms that you and your spouse filed for
the past 3 years (or an IRS tax return transcript for the last 3 years).

I would not worry about not being approved if you meet all the requirements.  As to the evidence we sent, it was just the evidence that was required by the instructions.

Do you currently have a 10 year GC? I filed for the N-400 after 3 years of marriage to a USC. But I did it because there was a delay with getting the 10 year GC. A few days after I submitted my N-400 application, I received my 10 year GC, LOL! 

 

What I'm trying to say is that your N-400 filing should not affect your GC. The only thing that I think will come up with the N-400 is if you have been out of the country for "too long". There is guidance on this on the USCIS website and how they count days for continuous residence on US soil.

 

What USCIS definitely wants to see is your joint IRS transcripts and documents that show you are together - rental lease, home ownership, mortgage and better yet, a baby, LOL! (but I am serious too).

 

Everything will be fine. Good Luck!

Unless something is very wrong they shouldn't deny you citizenship as long as you meet the eligibility requirements.
