IF1 is Alien whose record of admission is created upon the conclusion of a valid marriage contract after entering as a fiancé or fiancée of a US citizen.

Doesn't matter what visa category you are, you still cannot file for Citizenship now. But hey, ultimately the decision is in your hand. You can go ahead and apply, and tell us how it goes.

What we're trying to tell you is that what happened to you before adjustment of status, i.e. before your green card was approved, does not matter.

It's not a question of opinion

If your green card says you are a permanent resident since February 16th, 2014, then that is all that matters for purposes of naturalization.

Your N-400 will be returned to you and all fees kept if you file now. It would be better to give all that money to a charity rather than throw it away so carelessly.

The boy is me? or you . Oh just joking

Who's on first? I don't know is on third.

The only thing that matters on the card is the date after "resident since". Three years later you are eligible for citizenship when you've been married to a USC. Application can be made 90 days before that date. There's truly nothing you can do about it, even if USCIS lost your application and then found it and issued the green card late. Be glad they found it, I've heard of cases where it was never found and the applicant had to reapply after going through hell for a couple years trying to get it resolved.

I'm going to take a final crack at this.

You entered as a K-1 and applied for adjustment of status based on marriage to your petitioner in November 2011. Your adjustment of status was not actually approved until February 2014, and that is the date stated as your "Resident Since" date on your unconditional green card.

Why did USCIS take so long to approve your I-485? As others have said, it could have been a USCIS filing error, or, since you're from Turkey then perhaps stateside AP (rare, but it happens, especially if they get hits on your name), some combination of the two, or even some other unknown factors coming into play. At this point it really doesn't matter.

The law is quite clear: you can only apply for citizenship based on marriage 90 days before the three year anniversary of the "Resident Since" date on your green card; for you that is going to be ~November 2016. It doesn't matter what classification code your green card has on it, it doesn't matter that your AoS was pending for such a long time. It only matters what the "Resident Since" date says, and that is February 2014, meaning the earliest you can apply is approximately November 2016. If you apply before this date then you will probably be giving USCIS $680 and getting your application returned (if they're nice they'll decline the payment and return it, so expect that not to happen).

You may not like these answers, but this is pretty much how it is. Good luck.

Maybe you should wait for 3 years to apply for Citizenship.

From your interaction here, I don't think you have demonstrate an understanding of the English language to pass the Citizenship test anyway.

You were in the middle of the AOS process.

To be a Legal Permanent Resident you have to have a Green Card.

Your status was pending. You were not a permanent resident, but you were also not out of law because you had filed to stay.

[Me_Theo 25]

You were in the middle of the AOS process.

To be a Legal Permanent Resident you have to have a Green Card.

That is mean (middle of the AOS process) was out of law or by lawful (legal) ?

[Asia 2,491]

You were definitely not out of law, because you were adjusting your status.

[Ketsuban 1,034]

Your presence was lawful, but you were not, for that duration, a legal permanent resident.
