  • When can I apply for citizenship?

    I got married on 06/05/2013, received my green card on 06/20/2014. This year I filled form I-751, and was fingerprinted in April <still waiting on new gc>
    Can I apply this year for citizenship as I am married for 3 years? Or do I have to wait till June 2017?

    Thank you for your help.

    No, you can't apply now. You are eligible for naturalization 3 years after you received your first green card, provided you spent at least half of that time in the U.S. and have not left the country for more than 6 months.
