hello is there anyone can ease my hesitation?

5 year rule is easier as it requires less paperwork, however, 3 year rule is easy too if you guys are still together and file taxes together. Funny story, I've had my greencard for 6 yrs now and filed under 3 yr rule, at my interview the IO asked me why I filed like that, I said "why not? we're still married" she laughed and said she is just using the 5 yr rule because it's easier and we don't need to go through the hassle of proving a bonafide marriage with all the extra paperwork.

If you can file now with 3 yrs, then do it. There is no reason to wait an extra 2 yrs, the extra paperwork is no big deal since it is something all couples have on hand anyway. I just thought my story was funny and had to tell it

Haha, your case is interesting. thanks

My appreciation for helpful responses from VJ friends.
