My friend is filing n-400 for naturalization. Only one time, He visited his home country for more than 6 months, Becuase his father had a heart attack in that time period that's why he had to stayed little longer. Otherwise, he is living continuously in US. He has documents of the hospital, he can attach that and he has IRS transcript of that year. Does he need to enter home country address as well, or just US addresses where have been lived. Thanks

Do you think his case will be approved because visited home country more than 8 months? but he has genuine reason and document. And he has tax return as well of that year.

The answer for your question is Yes and No. It really depends on how well he expresses himself and his past situation and hardship to an IO. 

Taking care of an ill loved one might be taking into account. However, you definitely need to explain to the IO that he did not break his continuity of residence. 

Please read the information in the photo below:

Will they review all document at the time of interview or when they receive documents. One more question, can he hire attorney after he filed his case?
