Posted these questions in one of the sticky threads but did not get any response. I would really appreciate if someone could answer these questions.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have the following questions with regard to the documents that need to be brought at the naturalization interview:

1. Do I need to have a DL showing the current residence address? Would there be any issue if my DL shows the previous residence address?

2. Is there any issue if the address on my tax return has the address of my company (instead of my residential address) since my company is filing the taxes on my behalf and my company would like to receive all the correspondence directly from IRS? Would it be OK to show my lease agreements and utility bills as proof of residence?

3. I assume that tax transcripts provided by IRS are Federal tax returns and in order to obtain state tax returns, I would need to get it from my state tax department. Is that correct?

4. Regarding lease papers, utility bills, bank statements, credit card bills etc., should I get all of these documents for the last 5 years?

5. For proof of rent payment, is lease agreement sufficient? If not, I have been paying my rent through my bank's "Bill Pay" service and so would it be sufficient to have bank statements showing that the rent was debited from my bank account as proof of rent payment?
 
1. If they ask, yes. "Yes" to the second part of the question (explanation and/or additional proof of address may or may not work).

2. No. "Yes" to the second part (again, depends upon IO - one can't predict for sure).

3. Only federal transcripts should suffice. Keep copies of state (and federal) returns to be on safe side.

4. If I am not mistaken, last six months should suffice (3 years if marriage-based).

5. I don't think proof of rent payment would be needed. If needed, bank statements showing rent amount should do.

Personal opinions only.
