Evidence - Is it possible to have too much?

[kiwirst 39]

I am not sure how much evidence I need to provide. Trying to find joint mortgage statements from when we first bought our house isn't the easiest for example. I want to ensure I provide the most I need but not waste hours looking for everything.

 

Also, I will be submitting a copy of my wife's certificate of naturalization as evidence, does this need to be certified?

Quality over quantity, financial commingling documents are the best but my number one recommendation is keep it organized so they can do their job easier.  Good solid organized evidence is always a good thing.

Evidence of what exactly? 

 

The certificate of naturalization you have is fine; if she has a passport, a copy of the biodata page works too. Confirming her citizenship is pretty easy for USCIS.

Exactly, what other evidence should I provide aside from I have to? Used to be pictures, records of vacations with family etc. I started a business this year, should I provide evidence that I did that?

You should review the criteria for the citizenship pathway you are applying for, then think about what evidence you need to show to prove your eligibility under each criterion. You can submit them with your application or take them with you to your interview. Start by reading the guide on this website.
