N-400 and Marriage Certificate

[David J. Esteve 11]

Hello everyone!

 

It's been a long time since i was here and now after almost 3 years it's time to apply for the naturalization and i have a question that i'm pretty sure that you can help me.

 

I'm about to do the online filling of the N-400 and i have the next documents: birth certificate of my wife (US Citizen), our daughter's birth certificate with our names on it, the last 3 tax forms done together as married (2015, 2016 and 2017) and the marriage certificate. The marriage certificate I have is the original one from when i applied for the Green Card back in 2015, so the date it shows it was printed is 2015, do you think that will be a problem? I've already ordered a new one but it's taking too long to arrive and i'd like to start the application the soonest possible due that i'm on the 90-day rule and i'm able to start the application.

 

Also, with all the documentation I've mentioned, do you think that will be enough documents to process the N-400?

 

Thanks in advance to all!

The marriage certificate I am using was printed in 2013.  The birth certificate I am using was printed in 2002.  I know in Mexico they have all those rules about certificates having to be printed within a year which in my opinion is nonsense and drove me crazy.  The US doesn't have those rules.  Make sure if any docs are in a foreign language they are translated even if that wasn't required during the green card process.

 

I am submitting all the evidence you mentioned plus more like mortgage stuff, kids birth certificates,  bank stuff, insurance and 401k stuff but I am an over planning person by nature and I just can't help it.  Is it necessary? Probably not.  Will I do it anyway? Yes because not being approved is terrifying.
