What's the proper order for the "Countries to Which You Traveled"? that one has to indicate in the travel history in the N-400 Application for Naturalization Form (mirror)?

I wonder whether the order should be chronological, antichronological, lexicographical, some of other order or nobody cares. I also wonder whether I should list country A twice if I went to US-> country A -> country B -> country A -> US.

  • Please note that they want "Countries to Which You Traveled" It's "Countries" (plural) , not "Country".

I wonder whether the order should be chronological, antichronological, lexicographical, some of other order or nobody cares.

As the form states: Start with your most recent trip and work backwards.

  • which is antichronological

They want a unique list of countries visited during that trip:

  • country A, country B

  • There is one more question you have not answered yet. Should it be A, B or A,, B, A ?

    @scaaahu From the way the heading is written, the list should be unique. Otherwise they would probably have written 'Order of Countries to which you have traveled through'.

  • I think you're right. I asked the question for the OP, not myself. I naturalized long time ago. I remember I put in A, B, not A,B,A. I believe what the form is looking for is the time the applicant stayed outside US, not really the order of the countries you traveled.

  • Sorry I realized my question was ambiguous: I meant to ask, for a given trip outside the US where I visited more than 1 countries, in which order should I list the country? E.g. if I flew US -> Germany -> France -> US, should I list "Germany, France" or "France, Germany"? From your comments and answers it seems that this order doesn't matter.

  • Follow-up question: What's the proper order for the countries visited during a single trip outside the US that one has to indicate in the travel history in the N400 form?
