QUESTION
What USCIS is trying to find out here? Is this because I had only one trip overseas with my husband that lasted 4 months approximatelly?

More details to this question:
After applying for N-400 and after 4months and 19days I received I-797C request to appear for initial interview. Documents that I need to bring are: green card, any evidence of selective service registration, passport and any other documents that I used to enter a US, marriage certificate, spouses naturalization certificate. First, I was never engaged in any selective service or military of any country, I only have a passport from the country that I immigrated from and a US green card, one marriage certificate and one husband's naturalization certificate. When I was traveling outside the US I only used a passport and a green card mentioned above. I do not have anything else that I used to enter the US. Me and my husband were only married once and that is our current marriage without kids.

You have received a typical request for documents to bring to a naturalization interview. There does not appear to be anything unusual in the request. I gather that you are attempting to naturalize based upon marriage to a U. S. citizen and do it within 3 years instead of 5. The requirements are that you are married for 3 years, that the U. S. citizen is a U. S. citizen for 3 years, and that you reside together as man and wife for 3 years constantly in the 3 years prior to filing the N-400 application.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
