ok my husband is from sweden, has lived here almost 4 years now, we have
a 2 yr old child, we have done the adjustment of status, did the
interview and got approved for a green card,
we have never recvd the green card, but got that cleared up and a new
one is on its way here..someday..lol

anyways he was approved for green card ..
august of 2001 I believe it was..
or july 2001 come to think of it..

what do we do next for citzenship?
where do we start?

Find out when the AOS was approved (will say so on the green card when it arrives). He is eligible to apply for naturalization 90 days before the second anniversary of being approved for residency. For example, approval was July 15, 2001, he would be eligible to apply (if still married to a USC that is) in April 15, 2003.

Start by going to the INS website and downloading the N-400 application and the guidelines to naturalization or request it to be sent to him via the INS website, or call INS and ask for it to be mailed to him.

If you have been married for 3 years (no 90 day discount for marriage)
and he has been a PR (conditional or not) for 3 years (less 90 days),
then he can file N-400 and supporting documentation.

Wow Have I missed something, when did the 2 year residency come into effect, I was always told it was 3 years after green card for a wire of a USC

Please Confirm

Simon

thank you for catching my error. Don't know where my head was at. I gave the recipe for removal of conditions.

PLEASE MAKE IT ... FROM THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF THE APPROVAL FOR AOS.

My apologies you all.

That would third anniversary. The 90 days before applies to the
residency requirement only.
As noted in the "Guide To Naturalization", you still have to be married
for the full 3 years.
