N400 

Hi I have a question about filling N400 based on being 5 years permanent resident. I filled the application online and I was asked to submit marriage certificate and divorce certificate.  My application is not based on marriage any more it is based on being card holder for more than 5 years.What additional documents should I submit? Thank you all in advance

If you are asked to submit a marriage document and a divorce certificate, do so.

 

In general, you want to give them any documents they specifically ask for.

 

No, you're not filing based on your marriage.  But they can still ask you for the certificates.

 

Regards,

I attended my interview and 10 days ago I uploaded IRS tax returns on the site as unsolicited evidence.

 

The officer didnt ask for any and I did tell him I have ton of documents and thought I need to bring, he said he looked over and everything checks out and he didnt need anything.

 

I uploaded the following as per the app

1. copy of Marriage Cert

2. copy of my GC

3. both kids birth certificate

 

and then unsolicited evidence of last 5 years of tax transcripts (4 from IRS and 1 year of returns).

My point is if course I will attach e everything they ask me for but do I need to add my tax transcripts, do I need to add last two pay stubs, passport size pictures. Anything like a suggestion. Other ways it will be just the form and marriage and divorce certificate.

The required evidence for the N400 regardless of 3 yr or 5 yr rule requires proof of your current marital status.  As to the other evidence requested to be brought to the interview, many people upload that as well.

 

Reference pages 10-14 of the instructions.

 

Good Luck!

I filed based on the five year rule and only uploaded my green card, marriage certificate and the five years of tax returns (I don't have any kids and no previous marriages).

Did they asked you for any other documents on the interview

My wife filed by paper and she only provided the required evidence (in her case a GC photocopy and our marriage certificate).  She took all interview material with her in a binder folder and the IO did not ask to see any of it.

 

Good Luck!

I'm still waiting for my interview so we'll see if they want to see any documents. 🙂

They wanted to see my marriage and divorce certificate at the interview based on 5 year GC. It's better to be too prepared than not prepared. Good luck

If I may ask, did you apply based on the 3- or 5-year rule?

If you file based on the 5 year rule but were previously married to USC, will they ask about the marriage? GC was based on marriage to USC

My wife applied under the 3 year rule with an I751 pending.
