I heard that if ur Greencard holder for almost 5yrs you can try applying for Citizenship, is this true?
Answer:
Here's a link to the online brochure you'll want to look over.
http://www.uscis.gov/files/nativedocumen...
Here's a quote from page 91 in that brochure.
The process of becoming a U.S. citizen is called “naturalization.”
You can apply for naturalization once you
meet the following requirements:
Live in the U.S. for at least 5 years
as a permanent resident (or 3 years
if married to and living with a U.S.
citizen).
Be present in the U.S. for at least 30
months out of the past 5 years (or
18 months out of the past 3 years if
married to and living with a U.S.
citizen).
Live within a state or district for at
least 3 months before you apply.
There are even more rules on the pages after that, but those are the basics. It would probably be best for you to wait till exactly 5 years. But, you could still print out the forms and get most of it ready. There's a few of them, all of which are available on the USCIS website. Make sure you study for the test! Most public libraries have study guides for them.
It's 5 years, exactly, when you become eligible.
