The requirement is that you need to have met at least once in person within the last 2 years. There is no stipulation as to how long you should have been in a relationship. But if you get engaged and file the petition "too soon" (and this is subjective) after meeting, then it could raise a red flag.

Dec 05, 2011: Received U.S. permanent resident status (AOS based on K-1 visa)

Dec 16, 2013: Removal of conditions on green card

Apr 28, 2015: Became a U.S. Citizen
