Hi all.

I am drawing a blank here. 
N-400, part 1, question 1.

which option do I need to pick? I feel A and B are applying to me.

I have been married to my USC husband since 2006, LPR since 2008. Still married and living together and my husband is a natural born citizen. 
 

Also, he is in the military, is there anything I need to do differently or is it the exact same process than for civilian applicants?

 

thank you!

He's in the military,  you're not so you're a civilian.

 

And you can choose if you want to file under the 3 or 5 year rule. For 3 years you have to submit all the proof of your relationship again. You don't have to do that if you file under the 5 year rule.

Go with the 5 year option. Less hustle

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

Five year without a doubt.

 

I know of a distant friend of a friend who was married for 10 years  with USC and was eligible for file under either rule. They choose 3 year rule and then got separated/divorced 6 months after applying before the interview.

You don't have the choice of filing under the 3 year rule, that option is only for those who don't want to wait for 5 years (and who are eligible to file under the 3 year rule of course). You have already waited 5 years or more, so there is no 3 year rule for you.
