Hello,

A friend of mine wants to know if he can apply for naturilization 3 months or 6 months prior to the full 5 years of becoming a permanent resident. In other words, he should be 5 years of PR in June of 2007. Can he apply now or do he have to wait till march (that is 3 months before). Any help will be highly appreiciated...

He can apply 90 days prior to his 5 years anniversary. There is a difference between 3 months and 90 days. Make sure he counts the days and it is 90 days, NOT 3 MONTHS. Even if the application is few days early, it can be rejected. Also it is good to be on the safe side and wait few more days (send the application 85-87 days before the 5 year anniversary).
