Upload as much evidence as you can to give them a chance to look at it before the interview. That way you don't need to bring as much, and the IO won't have a pile of documents to go through after the interview which could potentionally delay your approval (the IO might not even ask for any additional evidence at all, you never know). 

 

Bring the originals of the important documents (ie birth certificates, marriage certificate, divorce decree etc, whatever important documents you uploaded/sent copies of).

 

Just to be on the safe side I brought the newest bank statement (all other months I had already uploaded), a couple of the newest utility bills and 2020 tax return. I didn't bother with anything else.

 

And then obviously the regular stuff such as ALL your passports, DL, greencard, interview letter.

 

I had uploaded pretty much everything (I uploaded new stuff every month my case was pending) and wasn't asked for any evidence of bonafide marriage at the interview other than the 2020 tax return (we had filed our taxes just a few days prior so I hadn't uploaded the whole thing and obviously no transcript was available yet).

😮😮 I didn't even know that i can upload stuff while my case is pending. 

 

My interview is next week, should upload the recent bank statements and bills or should i just bring it with me to the interview!? 

 

It's 9 months worth of evidence 😬

 

I did upload everything i could when i first filed my application

Just got an interview notice for May 25 as well, filed July 10, 2020.  Any advice on where to find materials to study for the civics test?

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

@Tunisian_tunisia no need to upload your recent documents just take it with you on your interview instead. Coz that’s what I did on my interview and the IO will look at it and give it back to you after he/she see it. Good luck on your interview.

Hello Guys, just want to let you know that my journey to citizenship is finally over after almost 5 and half years.  Passed my interview last Wednesday in Las Vegas ASC.  Interview went smooth and estimated to just last in about less than 30 minutes.  Good luck to the rest of us here Guys.  I would like to thank this forum which really helped me since day 1 in processing my application for immigration as well as citizenship naturalization without any help from Legal Representatives.

This morning while checking  my USCIS account a message appeared dated today (April 24, 2021 at 6:43 AM) that an appointment for my biometrics has been made.  I checked a little closer and I also noticed as I was looking the letter appeared stating that my appointment is for the 17th of May.  I had logged in on my USCIS site at 6:42 AM or just before the appointment posted. Hoping to get my citizenship before the 4th of July.   By the way, I applied July 3, 2020...

YouTube is your best source to practice for an interview.  Google essa.

Hi guys! Finally my interview has been scheduled (NYC). I filed my case in mid July 2020. My upcoming interview is on May 27th, 2021. Maybe somebody knows if NYC office does the same day oath due to COVID? I’ve read that some field offices do that. 

Congrats! Wait is almost over! Are you a Manhattan filer?
