guys, for those who have interview in few days.... how many times a day you guys practice?☺️ i have been practicing twice a day (civics)     

 

what else have you guys been doing to practice? i already have my docs prepared!

My interview is next Friday but I have to admit that I haven't practiced for at least a week. I feel like I've memorized the questions and answers by now although I should practice again shortly.

Good luck everyone, can't wait to never think of the USCIS again.

Congratulations! It's great to see that interviews are being scheduled. 🥳

i already memorize the civics by heart too♥️

Turns out I hadn't practiced since February 19 so I should do it now just to make sure I didn't forget anything. Aside from that I just need to look over my application and make sure I can remember my travel dates in case they ask.

The interview notice just says to bring the interview notice, your green card, your passport and any evidence of Selective Service Registration (if applicable).

 

If you're filing based on the 3-year rule it says to bring your marriage certificate, proof of death or divorce for prior marriages for you and your spouse and your spouse's birth or naturalization certificate.

 

I'm filing based on the 5-year rule so I plan on bringing the items listed in the first paragraph. I was also going to bring my driver's license and the tax returns (which I also uploaded).

We just had our interview. Bring copies of everything you submitted online/with you application. the officer looked at the documents we submitted online next to the physical copies we brought and compared. Not sure if it’s like that with everyone, but that was our experience

Question on that, did you print out your entire tax return or some of it? That seems like a rather excessive amount of physical evidence to bring and review, so if we can bring a smaller printout that would be awesome.

Use tax transcripts instead.

I'm not sure how to get those, I have submitted personally every year except 1 (which I believe has a tax transcript).

We personally did print everything out, but that’s because my partner likes to be over prepared. The officer did only look at the first page of each of the last 3 years tax returns to see both of our names. Like the other poster mentioned, can use a tax transcript as well. We did provide the tax transcript, which she looked at in addition to the actual tax returns. She looked at the car insurance we provided and health insurance.
