filing based on marriage but currently us spouse in philippines

[marjorie0102 1]

Hello everyone. I am planning to send my N-400 this end of January ,2017. I have been a legal resident since April 30,2014. Since I got here 2012 I have been happily married and living with my husband. We filed our taxes jointly. Bank accounts are name under both of us as well. End of 2015 my dad in Philippines had a bad accident and still now having his therapy to walk like before. We went over July of 2016 to visit and take care of him and our family business as my dad is not in any way able to up to this date. But as I have a certain time limit as to how long I can be gone from the states I came back December of 2016 but since nobody we can trust can look after my dads being and our business  my husband stayed. We are a very happy and in love married couple  there's no doubt on that. Do you think it will be an issue that he is there for now until everything is back to normal for my dads case and I am here in the states while processing my naturalization? Thank you

It could be an issue yes, as you are not living in marital union.

Are you and your husband maintaining a US home?  Your husband's absence is temporary if you have maintain a home to return to after visiting the PI.

We don't have a house here as of the moment. We on the other hand have a joint bank account open and active. I have all our lease documents since 2012 showing that we lived together since then. Also we owned a little property under our names but we just sold it last year. I even have a lease contract under both our names of our apartment in Philippines where I stayed with him before I came back.

If you did not maintain a US residence while in the PI, then there may be a break in your residency.

Our lease was up anyway so I don't see any reason to renew it when we are going out of country for a while. But I did reach out to get an apartment unit on the same complex before I come back. That should I think establish my intent to come back. But my main concern now is my husbands address. I wonder if I can put my current u.s address as his current address also since when he comes back of course that will be his address here. I got my old job back now and my address.
