I wonder when do I file for my citiZEnship?

You meant when are you eligible? On your GC, where it says "residence since", add three years minus 90 days is when you're eligible. From reading your timeline which is very similar to mine, 4/25/07 is your interview approval date, so your GC should says residence since "4/25/07". Then add 3 years minus 90 days should be 1/25/10. You should probably count the calender again yourself just to be absolute sure. Hope that helps!

yes iam sure that my 3 yrs is on april 25 2010. I would say ill search the n400 soon. Gonna try to prepare for it.

THANKS A bunch!

There are other requirements for eligibility such as "being married to the same US citizen spouse for the past three years" and some other residency requirement. I'm sure you'll find them when you start the search. There's also the US Citizenship General Discussion Board here on VJ. Hope that helps!
