Interview is scheduled on Dec 17th, 2019. 

 

If applying for NATURALIZATION AS THE SPOUSE of a United States Citizen; 

Your marriage certificate.

Proof of death or divorce for each prior marriage of yourself or spouse.

Your spouse's birth or naturalization certificate or certificate of citizenship

 

 

I'm applying as US Citizen spouse, but we can't find my spouse (US born) birth certificate. Is there any other option?

 

A US Passport would suffice if she has one but if not, just like someone suggest, let her take her social security card to the county and get another one ... as simple as that

Sorry I seems not to be right ... I just double checked now on my own interview later and it stated otherwise as shown below:

I talked to my immigration attorney - attorney mentioned they'll not need any documents related to my spouse citizenship even though I'm applying under 3 years rule because all documents related to my spouse citizenship were noted when I received GC. 

 

This also matches with @Sean and Kristina experience during interview. For Naturalization, IO will be more focused on my documents since nothing has changed since I received permanent GC. 

 

Only mentioned to carry last year tax documents when we filed taxes as couple.

This makes sense and I will assume same too because I was not asked about it on my interview date even though I went with it as requested in interview letter.

the documents the IO asked me were my most recent tax returns and not even for the last three years.

I had my interview Saturday 11/16. I was approved and oath ceremony is scheduled for Thursday 11/21 (I was expecting a longer wait).

Edit: I only took the documents listed in the interview letter.. my permanent resident card, husband's birth certificate, daughter's birth certificate (just in case) and my passports (expired and current). The IO did not ask for anything other than my PRC and the interview letter.

We brought our 2018 taxes and the IO didn't want/need those either. Our whole experience was so strange. 

I wrote a full detailed account of our AOS process, timeline, AP use, and interview on my blog. You can read it here.

Did they tell you this in person during your interview? Or did you receive an oath ceremony scheduling notification in the USCIS portal?
