Prior marriages

[Lucasmom 0]

hi..im applying for naturalization and i have 2 prior marriages and both have been annulled/divorced.

1996 1st marriage ended

2010 married a US citizen, became a resident

2015 divorced

Im applying for naturalization based on marriage and there is a part where i have to declare all the names i have used since birth and i did, but theres only one column to declare previous marriage, and it says provide additional sheet of paper if you have 1 or more.

My question is do i need to provide 2 divorce decree as supporting documents or should i even bother providing for the 1st one

What should i do? Pls help

You must provide a divorce decree for each previous marriage.

If you became a legal permanent resident more than 5 years ago, you don't need to apply based on marriage.

You should provide all divorce decrees and need to document all prior marriages.

If there is only place for one prior marriage in the form itself then yes, you need to declare the second on a separate sheet and explain which part in the form it refers to.
