send them to dig around in other direction?
My rationale was that checking "3-year married to US citizen" would send IO to dig around towards proof of mariage, as result distracting from layoff history (that is my primary goal).
Or you do not see it as distraction factor from the...
Does it help with 3-year married to US citizen
Congratulations!
I am in the same boat - Consular processing, layoff mid-way :)
Would it help to apply N-400 as "3-year married to US-citizen" vs regular 5-year resident? (qualify for both)
Any difference in the resulting Natr. certificate?
interview update?
any inteview update ?
any questions about working for GC sponsor?
From your timeline I understand the GC sponsor-employer would be missing on your N400 application.
would a lawyer help with "not working for GC sponsor" issues
Will be any help to have a imm lawyer for "not working (long enough or at all) for sponsor after GC" type of issues at interview?
is it ok not to mail-in required documents, but bring to interview?
it looks you are trying not to send tax returns.
However in every listed combination of the requred documents a tax return is required.

That's what I was thinking.
As for extra docs in minimum/required set, the marriage-based only requires copy of spouse's passport plus 3-year tax transcripts (which they could ask for anyway).

I qualify for both, but need to select only one checkmark on N400 application.
Which basis is safer/faster/better?
The GC was employment-based (will raise red flags of leaving...
Please advise how to file N-400: as 5-year resident or as 3-year married to a US citizen (only one checkmark can be selected on the form).
What is the difference?
Facts:
1) Employment-based GC, US resident for 6 years now.
Problem: was laid off by the sponsoring employer before...
Is it Ok to postdate - write as "todays date" a year or two yearlier (2003)?
(date of the actual move)
Is any "history" information checked during AR-11 update?
E.g. One would not want the GC history checked due to "change employer earlier". That is one of the reason of not sending AR-11...
I would also submit several PAYSTUBS for the "low W-2 years" that show high hourly rate/salary at the time when you were paid, along with explanation of unpaid "bench" between the projects.
Paystubs also will show other benefits (medicals insurance, etc) paid as part of your salary.
