I Have been a permanent resident for 6 years now and I was out of country for last 5 months and back now. I am interested to apply for the citizenship now but the Naturalization Requirements Information document says an applicant for naturalization must Show that you have lived for at least 3 months in the state or USCIS district where you claim residence. I have been living in my current state for last 3 years and maintained a residency in my state while I was out of country. Can I apply for citizenship now or do i need to wait for three month's to claim the residence in my current state and then apply?
I am currently unemployed and does this affect anyway the citizenship application? I am also not claiming any unemployment benefits.
