Documents needed for interview

olop

Registered Users (C)
My N-400 is based on the 5 yr permanent resident[employment based] eligibility. Mine is a straighforward case. No traffic tickets, no court cases, no citations, no police cases. I was wondering what all documents to keep ready to bring to the interview besides the usual

- permanent resident card, driving licence, passport, tax transcipts , birth certificate

Do folks take extra documentation other than above ?? Can you please let me know.

Since this is not a marriage based application, I don't think I need to haul mortgage papers, joint bank statements, joint credit card statements, utility bills, marriage certs etc.. Am I right ???

Regarding the Selective Services, I entered the country for the first time when I was 25 yrs old on a H1 and I continued to be in H1 till I got my permanent residency 5 yrs back. That makes me not reqd to have registered to Selective services, right ?? Do I still need to get that letter from Selective Services saying registration not needed ??

People here keep mentioning about receiving some yellow letter prior to the interview letter. What exactly is this yellow letter and do all applicants receive it OR it is ok not to receive it ??

The interview notice mentions all the necessary documents to be brought to the interview. Can the officer ask for additional documentation other than mentioned in the interview notice ?? If he asks, can I tell him that since it is not mentioned in the interview letter, I didn't bring it. Can he then keep my decision on hold for not bringing documentation which is not mentioned in the interview letter ?

Thanks in advance
 
It is your choice, but I would advise you to be overprepared. I decided to take a number of additional documents with me, as I did not want to take any chances with my interview, and wait for another 2 months just because the specific document asked for by the IO was sitting at home.

The list of documents taken by me can be found here:

Mine was also a straightforward case like yours.

The CFR is a yellow letter which some applicants get. It is just a checklist of documents which you are supposed to get, but it seems to be a very generic list, and will usually mention drivers license and borth certificates of US born children.
 
Oath letter on same day?

When I appeared for my interview on 06/02/09, the officer told me that I will be receiving my oath letter via mail. I am wondering how you received yours on the same day.

Thanks
