Hello Folks,

Long time no see. I would like to say sorry first if I miss lots of useful info.

My asylum green card shows "Resident Since 09/19/04”. When will I be eligible to apply for US citizenship?

Thank you in advance! Good luck to you all!

Hi sadasylee.

You will be eligible for Citizenship Sunday June 21, 2009 so you give your self couple more day after Sunday June 21,2009 because is a holiday also to be on safe side you don't get any rejection of your application before the Residence Requirement who is 4 years and 9 months.

Check this link for the calculation

You need to be a permanent resident card (green card) holder to be eligible to apply for citizenship.

In normal circumstances, an immigrant should be a permanent resident for five years to be eligible for citizenship. If you are married to a US citizen, then it is three years of permanent residency.It is that you have to be in marriage to a U.S citizen and should be living with that U.S citizen for the past 3 three years of your permanent residency for the criteria to be applicable to you.

Current regulations do allow a person to start the application process ninety days before they fulfill their residency requirement.
