Edmund Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 My wife is a dependent of my GC, she has had her GC for more than 5 years and ready to apply for citizenship. Filling out her paper work, never worked "Home Make", never been sited, arrested, WE never filed late or missed filing our taxes\ and we do not owe any. My question is: Since it seems that all the USICS wants is the Application filled, two pictures, copy of her GC and the Money Order!! so what about passport copies, Tax returns ... all that paper work I had to put together, she does not need all that? Thanks for you help[ Edmund Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 That's all they want and require. If they want any more they will let you know. Usually this is enough. Link to comment
JoeF Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Put in the application what is requested by the instructions. If they want more, they'll let you know. They may want to see tax returns at the interview. Link to comment
t75 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I suggest that she consult an attorney to review her application for completeness. Have her take all collected documents and completed forms. The few hundred dollars it costs is worth it.. Link to comment

JoeF Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Why make Attorneys wealthier? Naturalization does not need a Lawyer and most Lawyers would agree. The OP is obviously not comfortable with doing this on his own. In such a situation, consulting with a lawyer to make sure everything is ok may be a useful thing. Link to comment
t75 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Ponte, OP was confused and concerned. The small cost of a review of the application before submission is worth it for the peace of mind it brings knowing that the best possible case has been presented. Link to comment

t75 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 None taken. Some need the employer to do the work completely. OP simply needs reassurance that everything is done correctly. Since the process can be confusing, an experienced attorney (or his paralegal) can review the documents and present the best case the first time. To me, the cost of the attorney to avoid an RFE is well worth it. Some people do not realize that they can split the responsibilities and save the cost of the full package. There are times when a person's time is more important than the cost and should let the attorney do it all. Others are confident and taking it on by his/herself is not a problem. I know you know this to be the case. I am posting so that future readers consider options about which they might not have been aware. Link to comment
Edmund Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Thank you all for your insights, consulting with an attorney is actually a more comfortable situation for me. Link to comment
