Legal Question in Immigration Law in Ohio

I�m trying to apply for citizenship.
1.
#23 on N-400, Application for Naturalization, it says "Have you ever given false or misleading information to any U.S. Government official while applying for any immigration benefit or to prevent deportation, exclusion, or removal?"
While I was applying for Green Card about four years ago, I didn't give information that I worked at sushi restaurant on G-325A, Biographic Information. Because I thought that the information wouldn't help me getting Green Card. I was an international student and I didn't have work permit to work off campus. We sent all the documents.
About a month later, we got a pink letter from USCIS saying that we had to resend all the documents because we checked in a wrong check box on I-864, Affidavit of Support. When we resent all the documents again, we decided to add the work information that I worked at sushi restaurant and we wrote a letter saying we had typo.
I got Green Card about three years ago and now I�m trying to apply for Citizenship. Should I answer �Yes or No� on question #23? If I should answer �Yes�, then how should I write to explain?
2.
On M-477, Document Checklist, it says,
�If you are applying of naturalization on the basis of marriage to a U.S. citizen, send the following 4 items:
#4. a. Tax returns, bank accounts, leases, mortgage, or birth certificates of children�
How many years of tax returns, bank accounts, and leases should I send? And do banks accounts mean bank statements?
