Question Re travel history

 Share

4 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

I’m in the process of applying for citizenship and I am bit confused re listing my trips outside of the states for the 5 year period.

I came to the US on November 2018 via K1 visa. That brings me to 3,5 years of being here. I have traveled twice outside of the states within those years and easily stated it on the application.

What to do about 1,5 year period (2017 - November 2018)? I did travel to Mexico and Russia but it was not “outside and back to the states” since I was living in Canada and travelled outside and back to Canada. 
Do I list my trips AFTER coming to the states permanently? 
I hope I was able to state my concerns clearly.

TIA!!!!!!!!!

If you are applying based on the 3 years rule marriage, then you list trips you have had outside the U.S while living in the U.S for those 3 years only. 
The N-400 form requests 5 years of history, but that’s because most people that apply for the N-400 fall under the 5 years rule. Hope this helps 😊
