VJ members,

First of all, This forum has always been very helpful and supportive. Second, I just got notice that my interview has been scheduled but they haven't provided interview date yet. I have few questions if some members could help me out here. 

 

1. I only submitted copy of my green card, passport, divorce decree with my N-400 application. What else will I need to bring it in at the interview. I'm planning to bring last 3 years tax transcripts so far. I have travelled quite often in last 5 years. Do I need to bring anything to prove my travel outside US as well? Please advise what are other documents I will need to bring in at the interview?

2. I was married for 5 years and got divorced in December of 2019. I guess it all depends on IO if he wants to inquire about my past immigration history but my question is do I need to take documents again to establish bonafide marriage. My I-175 was approved in May 2018 without an interview.  I did lose lot of documents but still have joint lease, joint bank statements, Power of Attorney, utilities that has both of our names etc. Do I just keep it in with me just in case IO asks for it. I also got re-married this year and applied for I-130 for my spouse, will IO inquire about that as well? Or will they be able to check on system that I have applied for my another wife?

1) Your interview letter will provide the list of documents you would need to bring 

2) Yes they can ask for anything during naturalization as they can check for everything of your entire immigration history for n-400. 

So do yo think I will have to bring joint lease, joint bank statements, Power of Attorney, utilities that has both of our names etc to proof my bonafide marriage.

I was able to retrieve it actually. When I went to the website and look up using my information, It did say I registered around 2009. So I think I'm, good with this.

My interview list of documents doesn't ask to provide any documents to prove bona fide marriage. Do you think I still need to take some documents just in case if IO asks about it. And It also doesn't have any required tax documents. But I will also take that with me and present if IO asks about it.

I'm about to attend N-400 interview based on 5 years and was divorced with my ex-wife. We entered marriage into a good faith and was married for 5 years after knowing each other for 1 year before marriage. I did get re-married again end of this year and filed I-130 for my spouse. 

 

Would IO officer try to inquire about I-130 I filed, Or would they simple care about N-400. I wonder if they put my name, it would show in their system that i have applied I-130 for my spouse. I'm just trying to stay prepared in case and off course I will be honest if any questions asked. But just wanted to get some opinions
