The answer to your first question is that it's 3 years from the date your Green Card is issued. Sorry I don't know the answer to your second question.

I know that you need discharge papers if you were in the US military, and applying for citizenship through military service. But dont really know about being in the British forces.

We've never used the UK military records again, after the Immigrant Visa process.

No, no UK military records required for naturalization.

Now That You Are A Permanent Resident

How Do I Remove The Conditions On Permanent Residence Based On Marriage?

Welcome to the United States: A Guide For New Immigrants

Yes, even this last one.. stuff in there that not even your USC knows.....

Here are more links that I love:

Arriving in America, The POE Drill

Dual Citizenship FAQ

Other Fora I Post To:

alt.visa.us.marriage-based http://britishexpats.com/ and www.***removed***.com

censored link = *family based immigration* website

Inertia. Is that the Greek god of 'can't be bothered'?

Met, married, immigrated, naturalized.
