Good evening!

I am proudly getting ready to file for citizenship soon, however after carefully reading the requirements on the USCIS website I have a (specific) doubt.

 

At some point you can read that “I have resided in the district or state in which I’m applying for citizenship for the last three months”.

 

This is where I got confused because, I have been living in the same state for the past 2 years but I had to come to my home country and i am staying for 4 months due to family issues. My question is.. can I apply immediately when i go back to the US or do I have to wait 3 months in my state to do so? 

 

Thank you in advance and God bless you.

hi

 

it doesn't apply to you. that is if in case you have moved to another state. if you move, then you have to wait at least 3 months in your new state to apply for citizenship

As mentioned above it doesn’t apply to you. It only applies if you moved to another state within the U.S. Temporary overseas travel for personal reasons don’t count.

Thank you for your answers! 

Make sure to keep track of your time spent outside of the US though. That is a factor when it comes to your N-400 application. Good luck!
