Hi  Everybody , I haven't been here a long time. I miss all my VJ friends and the community. I have a weird questions which I am getting mixed answers. I got my citizenship last week , my wife has been green card holder since October 2015 and we've been married more than 5 years. Does my wife have to wait once she is 5 years to apply for the citizenship or she can apply for it now since I am a us citizen and we have more than 5 years since we have been together. Thanks for reply.

It is either 5 years on her own or 3 years after your citizenship. Her own 5 years would be faster as she can apply for it from July next year.
