Explain as you have here   .. Your residential/domicile address is your “family home”… the other is a work related necessity but not your “domicile”. Many workers do the same when they  FIFO… “ fly in fly out”… mining, oil industries, travel nurses 

But if you notice in the application they ask for the physical adress not a home address

You cant have two addresses at the same time. Hopefully your drivers licence address is where your wife lives .. the place you stay when you are working would be treated like a business trip where you are in short term temporary accommodation because of work … even if you have a lease on that second residence

Yes my adress on drivers lessence is where my wife lives but i spend 3 weeks in the plcae close to my work and 3 days where my wife lives and in the application i put tge adress where i work 

Hello everyone

Hey Everyone!

 

Update:

I finally had my interview today without it getting cancelled! hahaha I passed it and an now just waiting in the USCIS waiting area to be called for the Oath Taking.

 

Wohoo! But dang, it was a good thing I was prepared to answer the officer’s questions. I was asked a lot of questions about my marriage and divorce:

When and how did I met my ex wife. How did we end up getting married. How long we were married. Why we divorced. How long were we living together and were separated. If were still married when we filed for my ROC. And she was going back and forth with her computer and my paper stack of documents which I submitted from way back during the AOS process which were already sitting on her desk.

But it wasn’t bad actually. I feel like I was overthinking of how they were going to treat me. As long as you have the answers to their questions, I think it went well and the officer wasn’t rude or anything. She was just doing her job. So, I managed to stay calm.

 

By the way, she did ask for my certified divorce decree! It was a good thing that my original interview schedule was postponed because that gave me time to request for a certified copy of my divorce decree. God knew and it all worked out.

 

I was then asked all the Yes or No questions. I was tested for the civics part:

What is an amendment?

What is the Constitution?

What is the capital of the US?

Who is the Speaker of the House?

What are three of the 13 original colonies?

Who makes the federal laws?

 

I was asked to read a sentence on a tablet and asked to write an answer.

 

After more questionings here and there, she took a photo of me and made me check my info on a tablet and made sure all my info were correct.

 

And then, I was told congratulations. I just need to wait in the waiting room again to be called for the Oath Ceremony.

 

And here I am, typing this out.. waiting Lol But, I’m so glad I passed. It has indeed been a journey everyone! God is good! 😊

 

Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉 happy for you

Then you shouldn’t have checked that box. 

I know i shouldn't 😢

You should be prepared to show evidence of bonafide marriage between when your ten year green card was approved and your separation.  
 

My naturalization interview was held 2 years after a divorce, and 32 years after a marriage based green card was issued.

 

The IO said : “I want to see evidence it was a real marriage”

 

The birth certificates of the children my ex-wife and I had together were sufficient.  YMMV

Iam not divorced and we not going to the only problem i checked seperated instead of married because of my job we live in two separate homes

Hey everyone,

 

I just got an update.. My interview has been rescheduled to February 25. Another month of waiting 😆 Oh well, this gives me time to focus on my studies for now as I will be graduating on Feb 18th… then, I’ll just restudy for the citizenship interview. No reason to stress about it for now.

Good luck

Naturalization under the 5 year rule has nothing to do with marriage. The marriage stuff only matters if you are applying under the 3 (three) year rule. 

Thank you so much for the reply ☺️☺️

Hello everyone 

I applied for naturalization under 5 years rule and checked seperated not married 

My question for whom who have experience with this , is that going to be a problem or do i need to provide bona fide documents wich i dont have no more

My N-400 took almost another year from the moment I received my biometrics reuse notice to the interview scheduled notice, so I wouldn't think it speeds anything up.

Thx for the response ☺️☺️

It may or may not speed it up.   I filed in May 2020, got my bio reuse on Jan 2021 and still have no interview as with a lot of people.  

Some people filing over the last 6 months already have their oath ceremony so there is not really any timeline per say to follow now. 

Thx for your response and good luck

If you have been an LPR for over 5 years, then your marital situation is not relevant to the application. Decide if you are still in a “ marriage” relationship though temporarily  living apart because of work .. or if you are indeed “separated”. Either way,  answer truthfully, but you aren't filing on the basis of an ongoing bonafide relationship so neither answer will impact the application .. 

Thank you so much for your reliefing answer , i submitted the application 2 weeks ago and i checked seperated and sense than iam feeling stressed and overthinking and still long wait ahead i truly want to forgate about it til the time come

Hi,

 

Actually, the USCIS office called me on the day of my interview to tell me that they have a building issue and will have to reschedule everyone’s interview. I confirmed through the USCIS website and it does say that their Phoenix office had to close due to facility issues. 

They said they’re sending me a letter in the mail to reschedule within the next 2 weeks or month. So now, I have to wait again. It does give me time to get more certified copies of my documents like my divorce decree.

I will keep you guys posted!

Thx for the update and good luck

Hi everyone,

 

I need your help. My N400 interview is already scheduled next week on the 18th and I'm kind of stressed and paranoid about it now that I am getting closer to the date.

 

I have filed N400 under the 5 year rule since my ex and I got divorced. We got married back in August 2016 so 4 years. Before the divorce, around 2019 I moved out of state because of work but travelled back and forth. The goal was that eventually we would both move to the new state. We were having conflicts which got worse and worse. Then, I later found out, she was seeing someone else behind my back. This initiated the divorce which was filed on June 2020 and was finalized on Nov 2020. We have everything separate since then and some stuff were purposefully erased to move on. It was heart breaking because I did love her. After the divorce, I decided to better myself. I moved out of state and was able to get into a nursing program and I am finally graduating next month. 

 

Being said, the documents that I have prepared so far are the documents were on USCIS' letter:

- tax documents

- my green card

- my passport (current and old one used upon entry to the US)

- certified copy of marriage certificate

- copy of dissolution of marriage

 

Now, will they scrutinize my application during the interview given my situation? I no longer have any proofs of anything joint-related except those that I have already originally sent for ROC as we have now our separate lives. I'm worried that a part of my situation would be misinterpreted or that I don't answer the right question and get miscommunicated? Do I still have to take with me documents to prove bona fides? I think I'm starting to get way into my head.

 

Any tips or advices would be much appreciated

Anny apdate good luck

When they did this to me they took 4 months off, so it went from 18 months to 14 months.

 

you might get an interview even sooner but no guarantee as some have waited over a year and half or more, then their is people who got their interview in less then 4-6 months. 

Thx and good luck

Hello everyone .

I submitted my application this month and i recieved a letter from the USCIS saying that its not necessary for you to appear for biometric cause they used my previous one and the fee will not be refunded ,
