im a green card holder can i file a us citizenship after 3 yrs of continous stay in the us

Most green cardholders can only file for citizenship after five years. Those who are married to US citizens have the ability to do so after three provided the applicant has held the green card for three years, the US citizen has been a citizen for three years, and the couple has been living together constantly during the three-year period. The law allows such married individuals to file within the 90 day period before the three years if the only unmet condition is the first – not having the green card for the full three years.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
