In many cases you may have more information than can fit into the standard space provided on Form N-400, Application for Naturalization. This is especially common for:
- Travel records
- Previous addresses
- Previous employers
USCIS requires most applicants to include five years of history for each. When your records do not fit the limited space on Form N-400, you’ll need to include the additional information in an organized way. Failure to present the information neatly can lead to confusion. For USCIS, confusion results in a Request for Evidence or even a denial.

The template is a starting point. You can delete sections that you do not need. If you are creating your own attachment sheet, be sure to include your full name and alien registration number on each sheet.
