More details to this question:
I have a green card for over 3 years. Been married to a U.S citizen for 5 years. How can I apply for the citizenship through my wife even though my green card was issued through work.
You are allowed to apply for citizenship if you have been married to a US citizen for three years; the US citizen has held that status for three years; and you have been living together without significant break during those three years. The fact that you obtained your permanent residence through work should not be an obstacle.
