Do you have a 10 years green card or a 2 years conditional green card?

Did you get approved for removal of conditions on your permanent residence, and what is the date next to "resident since" on your green card? That is the date you use to determine when your eligibility window starts. Add 5 years to that date, subtract 90 days, and you have your eligibility date. You can apply after that date.

For the evidence you need to include in your application, please go to http://www.uscis.gov/n-400 and read everything carefully.

90 days before Dec. 15, 2014. (90 days does not mean 3 months. Don't make this mistake.)

Applying even 1 day early means you will be denied and loss your filing fee.

IMHO - play it safe and do not apply early. File at the beginning of October 2014.

I think I have heard of that happening after the application was accepted for processing, but as far as I know, the lockbox facility is supposed to notice your premature submission, refuse it on the spot and return you the whole thing, without having cashed the check of course.
