Could someone advise whether the 3 year waiting period before applying for Naturalisation from PR includes or excludes the AOS wait time?
i.e. 3 years from AOS approval or 3 years from applying for AOS?
Thanks

You asked a very precise question and I answered it.
However, you are NOT a "lawful permanent resident" until the adjustment is approved and completed. [BTW, "conditional" 2 year status is also "permanent"].
You need 5 [sometimes 3] years of LPR status to naturalize.

Methinks that the humour (ooops humor) of some of the regulars in this forum is sometimes lost on newcomers
