The single most importand thing to prove your residence is your GREENCARD.
YEs, you must put them on the application, but i think they require you to present a prove unless your situation is different
 
the letter did not say anything about having any proof of residence, i was doing that just to have it :)

All depends what sort of proof you need, and for what reason. The simplest form is your state issued id (drivers license) that proves you are a resident of the district. Beyond that, you might use utility bills/leases/mortgages to prove that you remained a resident while temporarily out of the country.
 
what if one forgets to file the change of address ? Can it hurt the N400 interview ? Do i tell the IO that i forgot to file it? What are my alternatives?

I was wondering that myself. I guess there was a British man that was deported for failing to file the AR-11. However i have never read that myself.
 
can they bring the issue up during the N400 interview? I have been current with them for the past three years, I was worried about the ones before. Can they bring up ones from four years ago even though I have been current with my latest residence for the past few years?

Believe me TEE2 don't sweat it. you will be fine. Just take all the Docs along for the interview and you will be fine. The IO's at the interview are so much nicer than the onew at the airport.
 
You don't have to take proof of res for the past 5 yrs. I think they just want proof of the past 3 months for most straightfwd cases.

The following (in order) were quoted to me by the IO during the interview as documents that prove residence:

1. Bank statements
2. Lease agreement
3. Credit card statements

She said any one (as opposed to all three) would be OK.
