N-400 through marriage: question about how to fill days spent outside

[tutece]

Hello!

I'm applying for naturalization through my husband. We've been married for almost five years and have been living in NYC for the past three years.

The form asks to submit the addresses I've lived in for the past five years and the number of days I spent outside the US in the past five years. Since we've been here only for a little over three years, should I only fill in the last three years worth of information? Otherwise it misrepresents the days I spent outside of the US since I've been a permanent resident but also I didn't see anywhere on the form to indicate that I'm filling it out just for the past three years.

Thank you!

if you qualify for five years rule then just file by that method...instead of three. if you do on marriage based you have to include more paperwork. my advise would be to do it on 5 yr basis...
