N400 Online Filing - When did you move here?

[Broccoli Girl 19]

I'm currently filling out my online N-400 application and am not sure how to answer the "When did you move here?" question. I came to the US in late 2020 with a B2, adjusted status in 2021 which was approved in 2022. Ever since I came here, I stayed at and lived at my then-fiancé-now-husband's house, so the same address ever since. Which date should I put in the "From" of the "When did you move here?" question - is it the the date I arrived in the US in 2020 with the B2, the date I got married, the date I filed for AOS, the date EAD was approved, or the date I-485 was approved?

Is this just for address section?

You should list date you started living there, which would be in 2020.

 

What did you put in your AOS paperwork? There was similar question there I think on I-485

Yes, this is the address section of the Contact Information section - Where do you live?

 

I just checked my AOS paperwork which we hired an immigration lawyer for, in the Address History she put the start date of living in my current address as the day after we got married, so not 2020 but 2021.

Hmmmmm, not very accurate

Ugh. Would it be a red flag if I put 2020 as the date I moved here?

I don't know, you're supposed to answer questions truthfully on forms. Also, should have checked AOS forms before submitting, but now it's water under bridge. Most likely, not an issue, but I'm not a lawyer and this is not a legal advice

Thanks, I did check those AOS forms thoroughly. I believe the lawyer's interpretation of the Address History part was that when I arrived with my B2 and until I got married, my address was still technically my address in the Philippines, and then it changed after I got married. Thank you for your replies!
