Congrats.

3 years/18 months in the US? (continuous/physical presence)

3 months in the state your in?

Good moral character?

English and civics up to speed?

Attachment to the Constitution?

If you answer yes to all of these - you can go for the N-400!

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

It's been years since I've been here, but this forum has always been good to me and I doubt we'd be where we are without the support here. We intend to file the N-400, but is there some type of citizenship/civics class my wife has to take? Does she have to do this prior to or following the submittal?

If the "Resident Since" date on your card is 7/31/06, then the earliest you can apply is 90 days before 7/31/09 - which, by my calculation, means you can apply starting in early May.

5. English and Civics

In general, you must show that you can read, write, and speak basic English.

You must also have a basic knowledge of U.S. history and government (also known as “civics”).

You will be required to pass a test of English and a test of civics to prove your knowledge.

Many schools and community organizations help people prepare for their citizenship tests.

You can find examples of test questions in Form M-476, A Guide to Naturalization. Form

You can get materials to help you study for these tests and practice tests on the USCIS website www.uscis.gov
