Can anyone confirm that if your windows starts for the N400 on the 90 days before your 3 years of your green card or you have to also add days you were out of the country. 

You do need to check your eligibility based on number of days spend in the US.

I only been out the country 16 days since I been a resident. The website said I’m fine but I remember someone telling you have to add the days you were out the country as well. So basically two weeks after 2 years and 9 months

Yup! I’m getting my documents ready so I scan till I drop 🤣  my window opens on September 19th and I’m kinda nervous 😬 but excited to be over with this journey 

I think my husband's window opens on September 21. i don't think we have to send very much with the application. Most of our evidence is to be brought to the interview. We have almost everything ready, though! It will be sooo good to be done with this!

@Vante here's the starting point - https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship-resource-center/learn-about-citizenship/naturalization-eligibility

 

Unlike for joint I-751 filings, there is no urgency to file N-400 in the 90-day window, unless you already have 10 year greencard which about to expire and you decide to naturalize instead of renewing it.

Out of caution, just wait a few weeks or a month extra around the time you become eligible.

Yea, that’s what I was referring to, since I didn’t leave the country for more than 6 months, it said eligible. I’m jointly filing for the 751 but haven’t heard anything since my biometrics were reused and that was in October of last year. Its not urgent but I just want to be done with the immigration process and also need it for certain jobs. I have a lawyer too so I’ll also consult with him very soon. My window should be the 17th of September but if the days I left the country count, I’m looking at October.

Mmm so my wife travelled before covid in few days then everything closed she stayed outside the country for almost 5 months .. does that mean she have to wait 5 months ?

Good choice, just so to make sure your application is not rejected and then you wasted your money.

I can’t confirm or deny it

Let's see how this goes.  I have to move within the next two weeks.  Hope the change of address form works well enough.

People do it all the time. Check Naturalization forums. Do you have a question about the process?

My husband's filing date opens in a couple of weeks. We've already filled out the online form and uploaded some documents.
