Question: I am a refugee and have my Green card. When can I apply for my citizenship?
Answer:
The standard rule is to wait (5) five years after obtaining your Green card to apply for your U.S. citizenship or naturalization. There are exceptions to this rule that apply to Refugees.
In many instances, refugees can apply in 4 years or sooner depending on their situation. You will need to provide the correct supporting documents and meet the other requirements for citizenship.
