My wife is a permanent resident.  Her green card expires in January.  We have started the naturalization process.  Fingerprints are done and waiting for the next step.

We have a trip to China scheduled April 18th.  Will Homeland Security give a temp or do we need to apply for an extension or new residency card in order to travel?  China says the card must have 6 months to a year left before expiration in order to travel.

What is the time frame to get a new residency card?

What is the time frame for naturalization?

It's difficult to say when your case might be processed without knowing when you applied, which office, etc.

 

The best answer is that one month from her green card expiration/extension letter expiring, she will need to go to USCIS to get an I-551 stamp. Those are typically valid for six months or one year. It is as the discretion of the officer. 

 

Cases vary - Pending I-751 since August 2016, N-400 from July 2017, and appointment for N-400 on October 11th.
