how soon after getting citizenship can i file AOS for canadian husband?

[abish_09]

I am a GC holder married to a Canadian Citizen. I am filing my N400 soon so I can have my husband stay here with me and work in the U.S. permanently. (We're so tired of being in a long distance relationship! ) My question is how soon can I file Adjustment of Status for my husband? Can I do it as soon as I pass the citizenship interview? Do I have to wait 'til after the oath taking? Or is there a waiting period I am not aware of before he can file his I-485 after getting my citizenship? Any comments or opinions will be greatly appreciated! THANKS!

Same day after you have your oath. Not earlier.
I assume you filled an I-130 for him, if not you can file both (I-130 and I-485) in the same time.

Sorry about the long distance relation...this is the difference between people who obey the law (i.e. you and your Canadian husband) and illegal Mexicans...who, in a similar situation, the husband was here long time ago just jumping/crossing the border, and not worrying about legal status or anything else

Make sure you have your naturalization certificate with you when you file the forms.
