I got employee based GC in 2006. My wife got GC also through my company.

I am planning to apply Citizenship some time this year end.

Can my wife apply for citizenship before mine without any issues?.. i am just worried if the officer asks why she applied before mine.

will there be any issues?

please suggest.

I am just curious why you don't applied together? I mean, I have mine GC based on employment and we just recently applied together. We received Fingerprint notice at the same time and hopefully, will have an interview at the same time too. Why you would like to go through this process separately?

But, answring your question; I can't see any problem with that. Good luck :)

There is no obligation to apply for citizenship, ever. Apply now, later, never, at the same time as your wife, not at the same time as your wife, it makes no matter. Your marriage plays no part in your application since she isn't a US citizen.
