You may qualify under the 5 year rule, or, if she naturalizes, also the 3 year rule. Which one you will be eligible for sooner depends on when she naturalizes. If she becomes a citizens within 2 years of you becoming a permanent resident, then the 3 year rule will be sooner; otherwise, the 5 year rule will be sooner. (For the 3-year rule, you need to have been a permanent resident for 3 years, and also be married to a U.S. citizen, and have been married to that same person for 3 years, and that person needs to have been a citizen for those 3 years.)
