My grandmother has hit the 5 year mark last month to be elegible for naturalization. But she was out of the country for a total of 5 months during that time. That being the case, do we subtract that from her residence of 5 yrs and wait till she accumulates those 5 months back, or can she apply now since she has a total of 30 months of residence in the country?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

No, as long as non of her trips exceeded 6 months then she should be fine and will be considered a resident since her becoming a LPR.

Read the following naturalization guide as it explains many important things and will clarify a lot of these questions.

Feel free to ask any other questions

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
