Wow! How? Am I missing something? My wife has her 2 year green card and it expires 4/11/15. I'm sending off for her 10 year card. Next year she can apply for citizenship. Am I doing it wrong? I am an American born in the USA. She is from the Philippines.

Your wife can apply for citizenship after 3 years.

Unfortunately you must spend big bucks to get the 10 year card even though you only 'use' a year of it.

You can also, not apply for USC for 10 years if you want...

My wife just went through all that.

I also reccomend that your wife re-apply for her Filipine citizenship as well.

You never know, it could be useful...
