Hi, Could anyone please advise spesifically what kind of documents I might be required to provide to the immigration officer during my Naturalization Interview? Based on the posts I read I'll be brining the follow:

- Copy of drivers licenses;

- Car insurance notices;

- CodEdison recent bill;

- TWC May recent bill;

- Copies of our credit cards;

- Letter confirming our joint account;

- Insurance statements;

- Marriage license;

- Copies of our passports;

- Certificate of Marriage;

- My spouse's birth certificate;

- W-2 Forms and Tax forms;

- Lease agreements for the past three years;

Well I hope I didn't forget anything!!!

Thanks!

Do not bring copies of Drivers license and passports - take the originals with you. Also, you must bring your greencard with you, you seem to have left that out of your list as well as the appointment letter. My wife was a=only asked for the copies of the tax returns and nothing else - but she took a few originals with her in case she was asked, your list is good but you must take the originals with you. By the way, the interviewer made copies and returned the tax returns to my wife, even though my wife told her to to keep them since we had copies at home. Good Luck

Does anyone know whether it is best to bring IRS transcripts of tax returns or will copies of the originals suffice?

I was just asked today on my interview for joint documents for year 2006

So make sure you have some supporting documents for the last 3 years

Wow - that surprises me - we don't have a whole lot for 2006 not much more than what we showed at AOS... plus taxes. Were you able to show them enough?

Tax transcripts are less bulk and ct the same time "carry" more weight that tax returns.

I had tax transcripts for 2006

and two statements from our joint bank account

she also had some old stuff in her file

she wasn't sure that will be enough and did not make her decision yet

Gosh that's tough - sorry to hear that - I'd better look for some other stuff from 2006 and make sure to bring it with me...

I hope they make a decision on your case soon!!

Just wondering, if you have a child together (who will be at the interview with his birth certificate in hand), does that reduce the need for some of these documents at the interview?

[jsnearline 2]

According to the N-659 Checklist for Naturalization Interview, proof of marital union is required in addition to birth certificates of children.

[Bkj 0]

so is that what the tax documents, leases and utility bills are for? It just seems like so much junk, but junk that we will be bringing of course!

[jsnearline 2]

leases and utility bills are evidence of residence and marital union.

Tax returns are called out as a separate item on the checklist. Showing that you pay your taxes goes to proof of good moral character and marital union/residence.

I see that u mentioned to take some originals to the interview.. as for my spouse's US birth certificate would it be ok to take a copy? Let me know what ur thought is. Thanks motu
