Hi Everyone,

I have been married for 8 years to an US Citizen. I am filing for citizenship online! We have a 2 year old daughter and she lives with us. What to say to the question " Are you providing support to this child'? Should i say yes? If so what to submit as documents? My husband and I share the cost. But he pays for the most like daycare and other expensive stuff. I buy diapers, toys and clothes. Should we submit a letter stating this and get it signed? This portion is very confusing. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

if you read the instructions for that part of the N400 it says 

 

Quote

Required Evidence - Child and Spousal Support

 

Provide evidence that you have complied with any child and spousal support obligations. If you have dependent children living apart from you, provide evidence that you support each dependent child and that you have complied with any child support obligations.

 

https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/n-400instr.pdf  page 15

 

So the requirement for evidence does not apply to children living with you.  The fact that they live with you is proof you are supporting them.

How long have you been a legal permanent resident (i.e., had your greencard)?
