Can you submit the N-400 application 90 days before the 15 year GC date (10/23/2000)? Or you must wait until that date to apply? Please let me know. Thank you.

the 90 day rule applies only when you are waiting to become eligible to apply for the citizenship

You have been eligible for at least 10 years, so .. file away

no need to wait

Congrats!

Are you applying for the English Language Exemption? That's the only place where the 55/15 year rule comes into play.

Thank you for your reply. My aunt is 58 and became permanent resident on October 23, 2000. She doesn't want to have her interview in English and is going to apply under the 55/15 year rule. My question is: Does she have to wait until October 23, 2015 to apply? or she can apply 90 days before?

Hi;

I will be eligible in in three months for citizenship under 90 days rules; but at this time, i will not have yet my return taxe for my 5th year as LPR ( 2015)....Please, What can i do to for? Because we must have all five return taxe to be eligible for the citizenship.

What can i put in lieu of the taxe return to proove my continue residence in the us and pay taxe for all these years?

This year, i work with an agency which pay me all my salary without taxe. I suppose to fill taxe myself.

Tx u all

I am sorry, I do't know the rules for that part

Hopefully someone will chime in soon

I'm not 100 % sure but based on my interpretation you have to wait on the exact date and then file. If her interview happens within the 90 days she would have to take the regular test and possible face denial. Google and research this rule as it's not really common- there isn't even a form to fill out, you have to put that request in a letter and attach it to the application.

You can't piggy back you have to start your own topic. I'd suggest consulting a tax attorney about filing for the years you missed.

Thank you for your reply. :thumbs: She is going to wait. The Form N-400 Part 2 #12 has the Exceptions from the English language Test.
