is this correct

[breadedVirus 0]

Any ideas if this is correct? I found these questions on the visajourney Q&A pages.

Q: I obtained permanent residence through marriage to a US citizen. We divorced after 2 years of marriage. Does this affect eligibility for US citizenship?

A: Yes. Now you must wait five years instead of three years after permanent residence was approved before you can apply for citizenship.

Which means i have to what 5 years...

Q: What if I remarry a US citizen?

A: Still, the alien must have been married to a US citizen for 3 years, before becoming eligible under Section 319 of the INA. In the case of a remarriage to a US citizen, the alien will accrue 5 years of permanent residency becoming eligible for naturalization in accordance with the regulations specified inSection 316 of the Act, prior to the new marriage qualifying the alien under Section 319.

Which means IF i marry i have to be married to my wife for 3 years before i can apply for citizenship??

You can file for citizenship one of two ways.

1. Based upon marriage to a US citizen. You must be an LPR for at least three years AND married to the same USC for three years of your LPR status.

OR

2. You can file for citizenship after being an LPR for five years, your marriage status and length are not relevant.

Of course there are other requirements but this is the one you are addressing.

What belinda said.

Count what comes first: either you have been a Green Card holder for 5 years, or you have been married to your second wife for 3 years and been a Green Card holder for at least 3 years. Most likely it's almost a match.
