It looks like I'll be getting a divorce from my wife, but I have not started the process. We just filed the N-400 at the end of August.

 

If the divorce is finalized before her interview will that effect her eligibility to apply for citizenship? A marriage based filing, 4 years after she has had her green card.

Yes, she won't be approved for citizenship under 3 year rule, given the divorce. She'd have to re-apply under 5 year rule herself.

I agree.  She may want to withdraw the N400 application.  This thread may be helpful.

 

Good Luck!
