When to submit evidence to overcome presumption of break in continuity of residence

[Imperium 81]

Greetings,

I am compiling N400 under a five-year rule. During 2020, I was absent for 205 days, hence, presumed to break in the continuity of residence that is required for naturalization.  Law requires that in order to overcome this presumption of break, an applicant must provide a range of evidence to establish that they did not abandon their US residency during the absence from the US. Now that I am applying for N400 online, should I attach all the evidence along with the application or wait for them to ask for it?

Do this not to delay the process.

I am missing a Transcript and one other document. Also how can I upload 20+ pages. USCIS only allows 6MB.

I have used Adobe Acrobat to "merge" bunch of pdf documents into one pdf file.  I did this for my wife...merged 12 months of BofA checking account statements (total of 68 pages) into one pdf and file size was 1.5MB.  You can subscribe to Adobe using monthly subscription and then cancel after one month or see if they have a free trial period (I think it was 7 days when I signed up).  It is pretty easy to figure out how to use the merge function.  

 

Good luck.

Thank you so much. This is what I end up doing. The system kept giving error messages so I ended up using the Adobe through a trial. The application has now been submitted.
