8.1)...When can I apply for United States citizenship?
A...As a spouse of a US Citizen, you can apply for citizenship 3 (three) years after approval of your Adjustment of Status. Your approval may be noted via any of the following: approval notice (I-797), on your passport (I-551 stamp and date), your green card ("resident since" date). The 3 year countdown begins with that date. This 3 year period does not include long absences from the United States.

Please tell me

IS THIS LINK HAS REAL INFORMATION?

IF it is so

Then i should use my ( I-797) Adjustment of Status approval

Am i right or no ?

Thank you so much for your help.

If married and living with a US citizen in a bona fide marital relationship, you can file ninety days before the three year anniversary of the "Resident Since" date on your green card.

Why was the conditional green card not issued?

Thank you so much for your help.

it seems that you made a mistake when you mentioned the approval notice was 12-2011. I think that was your initial notice ( Acceptance of filling). both of the notices are I797 but one for the initial filling and one for the approval. it seems you didn't go over the ROC because at the time of your AOS approval you were married for more than 2 years. So, if you look at your GC you will have a resident since date which determine your eligibility for citizenship [ 3 years - 90 days of that date]. if my assumption is right then you will be eligible for Citizenship around December 2016

the good thing that you don't need to do ROC but your counter toward the citizenship just started

[DC85 113]

I was going over your Timeline and I think you are missunderstaning the ROC;

if @ the time of your AOS APPROVAL you were married for more than 2 years USCIS will give you 10 years GC and you won't need to do ROC.

if @ the time of your AOS approval you were married for less than 2 years then uscis will give you a conditional GC ( 2 years) and you HAVE to do ROC

[Me_Theo 25]

I didn't filled for ROC,

Because I hadn't green card. The day I put on the timeline for ROC,is the day we called the congress lady and....

I explained on Timeline .

[DC85 113]

the problem that your AOS took more than 2 years. and to be eligible to file for Citzenship you need to be PR for 3 years if you are married to a USC

that date you can find it on your GC or the approval notice of your I485

On the 2012-10-10

AOS transfer to california, for "Decision"

But There was like black hole , nothing arrived to me from there about what happend for "Decisoon"

Also we called more than 16 time each 45 day to see what is going on my I-485 , but right answer never came to us.

Just They said we are working hard. .....wait wait wait.

In end on11-11-2013, we sent the congress lady a letter by email and talked with her in person, she did good job and USCIS sent my file to our state and after interview and showing some picture from our marriage and something we have to share ... during 10 mintues, officer siad your green card will arrive after 2 weeks. The GC arrived almost 8 days after interview.

So what's the "residence since" date on your green card ? Please post those 6 digits, everything else is entirely irrelevant. If you got your green card in 2013, you'll be able to file for citizenship in 2016.

[Shub 78]

Since you opened a separate thread, I'll just repost what I posted in response to you in the November filers thread, please disregard that thread and let's use this one instead for discussion.

Thanks dear Shub,

Then, what about this link,

Do you think this link is junk or wrong ?

I'm not saying the VJ guide is good or bad, but I trust official resources (i.e. the USCIS website) above anything else.

What is the "resident since" date on your green card? Please look at your green card and share that date, if you don't mind.

It doesn't matter when you received your 10-year green card, if your adjustment of status from your K-1 visa was approved in December 2011, your green card should reflect that.

Addendum to my earlier post: after reading the details above (you should have shared all that sooner!), I think there is some confusion somewhere. So like I said, the "resident since" date on your green card is the determining factor.

Try this. It will tell you if you are eligible, or not:
