Hi VJ's

 

I got the approval for my I-761 but according to approval letter green card is coming within 60 days. I am eligible to apply for N-400, Should I wait for green card or apply N-400 with expired green card and approval letter?

Thanks

I think 60 days is a long time to wait. I didn't yet get approved for ROC, but I have already applied for citizenship the first day I could. I would say apply as soon as possible to speed up the process. Also, note that the fees to apply can increase every year so the sooner you apply the more chances you have to pay a lower fee. You can always take the 10 year green card with you to the interview. And you can upload proof your ROC was already approved.
