Hi,
I am sending my N-400 package. Before that, i want to make sure what i am doing is right.
I have 2 year conditional permanent resident card issued on 05/11/2005. I applied to lift conditions to TSC on 02/27/2007. Its recently got transferred to VSC.....still not approved.
Now i fall under 3 year lawful permanent resident (still 2 months to go, but 90 days bracket to apply) and i am in USA since July,2004 & married to USC since August'2004.
I gathered all the documents to send my N-400 package.
My Question is:
In the N-400 form Part-6, Part-7, asking about, where you lived, worked, traveled for the last 5 years.........do i have to write where i have been from last 5 years....while i am not permanent resident from past 5 years ?
In my case does it mean that i have to write for past 3 years where i have been? or at least since July,2004 will work ?
And following documents are included with this application:
• Fee, N-400 Application Form, Two Passport Photos.
• Copy of permanent resident card, I-751 extension letters.
• Copy of my wife’s birth certificate (USC), passport 1st page.
• Copy of our marriage certificate.
• Copy of house rental agreement for year 2006, 2005 and 2004.
• Our DSL, Telephone, cable bills.
• Bank statements (Current & Previous), checks showing our joint accounts.
• Copy of the tax statements for year 2006, 2005 and 2004.
• Copy of our driver licenses.
• Copies of various car insurance policies
• Copies of the titles of our cars, showing joint ownership.
• Copy of my 401K, life insurance beneficiary designation statement.
• Copy of our current health insurance cards showing a joint policy.
Am I missing any thing? Your input is greatly appreciated.
