Hi all,

I gained my permanent resident status in Aug 2011 and the first thing I did was enlist in the Military and I get shipped out in April 2012 to start my Army career.

My recruiter informed me that I will gain my citizenship by the end of my first year at the same time ill be due to file ROC on my 2 year GC.

They already made me fill out all my N400 and M426 and they said they will file it once I am eligible.

My question is that should I file for ROC in april 2013 or wait for my N400 to be approved?

You do not have to file for Roc, i had a friend who joined the military when she had her 2 year greencard and being in the military she did not need to file for Roc. She was a citizen before she could even apply to remove the conditions. And that is what will happen in your case too. I am sure other VJ members will response as well.
