Hi All

Its been a while since I have been on here and I am about to send in my N400. I originally came here on a marriage visa 12/31/2004 and have been an LPR since 01/10/2006.

 

Unfortunately my marriage ended in 2013, life happens, so now I am applying for naturalization on my own under the 5 year rule.

I am hoping that someone in a similar position can give me some advice on what documents I now need to send with the N400.

 

Thanks for your help in advance.

Try the USCIS.gov

They give you a checklist https://www.uscis.gov/system/files_force/files/article/attachments.pdf?download=1 and the form, and instructions, and requirements document.

Sorry to hear about your marriage not working out. :(

 

In terms of naturalisation, though, it's actually "easier" under the 5 year rule because you don't have to include the extra documents they ask for for married 3-year-rule persons.  It's slightly less paperwork to mail.

 

If you follow the checklist, then you should be fine. Your situation shouldn't cause any undue difficulty. 

* I-130/CR-1 visa by Direct Consular Filing in London
3rd May 2013 - Married in London

7th May 2013 - I-130 filed
4th June 2013 - NOA2 (approved)
16th July 2013 - Interview (approved)
30th July 2013 - POE San Francisco
29th August 2013 - 2 year green card arrived

 

* How? Read my DCF London I-130 for CR1/IR1 Spouse Guide
