All,

As the title says, I have been a GC holder (employment based, EB2) for 5.5 years.

My spouse at that time was my dependent and she got green card through my application. She is not a US citizen.

We got divorced last year after 4 and half years of marriage.

My N-400 interview is coming up soon and I wonder if divorce can have any effect?
I satisfy all other requirements for 5-year rule for citizenship. Total of 6+ years with sponsoring employer, 3 years after getting GC before changing jobs.

Please advice and provide your input.
I see many marriage based GC and N-400 cases with or w/o divorce, but almost no employment based cases.

TIA.
 
The divorce should have no impact on your N-400 interview.
Thank you for your reply.

I uploaded the decree with my application and plan on taking the original copy with me to the interview to show it if needed.

Do i need any other marriage related documentation?

I am taking tax transcripts, all W2s, I-485 and I-140 approvals.
 
I agree with @Sm1smom.
Your's is an employment based GC. Divorce should have no bearing on your N400 App.
You don't need to take I-485 and I-140 approvals. They already have that info with them, linked to your A#. Even W2 is not necessary. Take the tax transcripts. If you have any past court case, you would want to take copy of final court findings.

OK, i will prepare documents accordingly.

I have 1 traffic ticket, for which i will take the proof of payment. I don't have anything else, except a parking ticket for meter overtime which I am not sure needs to be shown or not?
Please advise.

Don't worry about parking ticket.
I had got a parking ticket on Halloween evening in 2009. My N400 interview was scheduled in few weeks.
I worried about it and nothing happened of it. IO don't worry about minor parking tickets.
Even traffic ticket, if it is not DUI or some criminal charge, it doesn't really matter. Anyway take the proof of payment. It doesn't hurt to be ready with evidence.
