Hello,

Here is my situation:
*I become US Citizen on March 2011 through Naturalization
*I did a k1 petition for my wife on April of 2011, it was approved in January of 2012
* She came in January 2012, and We got married in February 2012
* She got her temporal green card on September 2012
* She got her permanent resident through I-751 on September 2014
* Will she able to apply to citizenship on June 2015? (3 months before)
* Does she qualified for the 3 year rule?
Does make any difference that I am naturalized?
Thanks!

No. You have to be US citizen for 3 years at the time of your spouse's application - which you will be, therefore no difference. She will be able to apply at 3 years minus 90 days from her "Resident since" date.

Since you will have been married for 3 years on the day she mails the application

AND

You will have been a USC for 3 years on the day she mails the application

THEN

She can apply 90 days before her 3rd anniversary as a permanent resodent.
