Hi everyone,

I am planning to apply for citizenship in a few months under the 3 year ruled (married to a USC). I unfortunately won't have 3 years of tax transcripts available, so will have to go the route of submitting evidence of a bona fide marriage ("Tax returns, bank accounts, leases, mortgages, or birth certificates of children").

For those who have gone down this road before, did you effectively re-submit all the I-751 evidence, with updated documents where relevant (i.e., bank statements)? Or did you literally submit only the evidence items listed above i.e., tax returns, bank accounts, leases/mortgages and birth certificates.

Appreciate the help.

I am in the same boat as well. But I do have all my last 4years tax return transcripts. Just order them from IRS. I think you just need some evidence like lease, joint account, and other stuff. Good luck!
