Hi everyone! I'm considering applying for N-400 based on 5-year residency rule. I have a few questions for those who have had a similar experience to mine (married and divorced).
Marriage date-Nov, 2011 (After dating for 5 years, we met in college)
Received two-year green card in 2012.
Applied for I-751 in August 2014 (joint) and had it approved and received my 10-year green card in May 2015 without an interview
Separated in August 2015
Divorced in January 2016
I'm eligible to apply for my citizenship but hesitant because I'm no longer with my ex-husband.
Would it be a problem that we separated shortly after I received my 10 year green card?
Is the original 10-year green card approval reviewed at the time of the naturalization interview? Do I need to bring the evidence I submitted me with my I-751 again to my interview?
Do I need to bring evidence of marriage from the date of my I-751 was submitted until the date of my divorce?
What kind of questions should I expect during the interview?
Will I be asked any questions about my previous marriage or asked to provide any proof? I have not kept anything since then (except tax returns, life insuarance and some bank statemnts and photos)
What if my application gets denied will my green card be revoked? I'm considering waiting a few more years before applying for citizenship to have more time to prove good moral character (pay taxes, stay out of trouble). etc. Or should I just go ahead and submit my n-400 and see what happens. I just don't want my green card to be revoked if I'm denied. I have no problems with the law and no criminal history, do not receive government assistance and work and pay taxes.
Thank you!
