naturalization application

Hello,
I was going over the guide to naturalization in detail because i am ready to apply for citizenship.
One of the things it mentions is - I need to list all the addresses where I have lived in the past 5 years.
Now, I used to work as a consultant for 2 years. During the time I was a consultant, I used to be at 1 location for a few months; then other location and so on.... So, I didnot maintain a apartment; since my company used to give me accomodation in corporate wherever they used to send me. I had a friend's address given to INS.

1. So, now in the naturalization application, do I need to mention all the corporate apartment addresses that I have lived at?
2. If I do that - will INS consider a fraud on my part to not have filled AR11 everytime I was at a new address; and the fact that I had given a friends address?
3. I am not sure what I have done wrong though - I didnot maintain an apartment since it was not cost-effective. But, now during the naturalization application; I am not sure what needs to be done

Any guidance on your part would be very helpful

Thank you in advance

Hi JoeF,
1. For tax returns, I used my company address where I work (my name, c/o. company name, company address)

2. INS has a friend's address

3. For drivers license also, I have used company address where I work (my name, c/o. company name, company address)

For taxes, I filed NJ as a resident, but when I was working in different states, the company provided CPA used to file taxes for the other states too based on the length of stay there, etc...

Because of the fact that I have used different addresses (company address for tax returns, and license, but friends address with INS for GC) - am I in trouble?

What was the right thing to do?

What should I do now?

Thanks for the reassurance..
My panic comes from the following factors

1. I don't understand immigration rules well. So, I donot know as to whatever I have done is right or wrong.

2. I know INS wants the address where they can reach the person. For my case, just because of my work being a certain way, it was very difficult for me to give them a proper address. So, I had to rely on just leaving a friend's address; though I NEVER lived there

3. I am not sure as to whether having different addresses on my Tax Returns, INS, and Driver's license would cause me problems or not?

So, I am asking for your opinion on how does all this work for
a. My citizenship application
b. MY GC status (I have read that failure to give correct address to INS can cause deportation)

Please advice
