  • Continuous residence question

    We received our GC in Nov 2009. We were in India for a period of 8 months (May 10 - Jan 11) among other trips that lasted no longer than 3 weeks.
    During the 8 months I retained my US employment but my husband took up a job in India.
    I recently cleared my citizenship interview - I was able to satisfactorily explain the 8 months out of the 5 years.
    My husband may not be able to satisfactorily explain this. So what is the ideal time frame for him to apply for citizenship?

    1) Apply late 2015 so by the time his interview comes up, he has been a continuous resident for 5 years with no breaks.
    2) Apply Feb 2015 after he's been back as a continuous resident with no breaks for a period of 4 years and 1 day (which seems to apply to those who were out for more than one year at a time)
    3) Apply early 2015 after I get my citizenship papers but apply based on marriage to a US citizen.
    4) Other option I may be missing

    Thanks for your responses!
