Employment history for N-400

[jae950]

Hi. I'm an applicant who is applying for the citizenship based on the five year residency.

I have been living in the US for 7 years, minus yearly trips to visit my family and don't have a formal job for last five years.
Other than many gigs and tutoring that I did (but never filed tax because income was too little), my dad supported me financially. He claimed me as dependent in the tax report of the home country until 2018 when he could no longer because of my age.

I didn't finish my school because of my medical condition in 2015, so I can't find anything to fill out the form in the employment section.
Would it be okay to leave it as blank? I can explain the situation during the interview but afraid if I would get judged or denied because of this.
Also, would there be any document that I should bring to explain the circumstances better?

A. In the application, fill in Unemployed - between the 5 year dates required. Don't leave it blank.
B. Add an affidavit from your dad, where he explains that he claims you as a dependent since you have not been working.
C. Add your medical condition statement from doctor/or social security admin diagnosis. But this is just extra, you don't really need to add....add it if you have it of if it is easy to obtain.

Bring B and C to your interview, in lieu of Tax Transcripts.

Good luck!
