N400 and breaking continuous residence

[Salmabb]

Hello, I have been a permanent resident and married to a US citizen for 3 years and 6 months the problem is i left the US for 9 months right after i came here ( applied for reentry permit) to finish the last year of my school my husband stayed in the US, It is been 2 years and 1 month since i came back here. Should I apply now or wait 2 years 6 months or wait till the 3 years mark. Or should I apply 90 days before the 3 years. I don’t know what to do? Thank you

I have no experience but from: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/...rt-d-chapter-3

However, an applicant may overcome the presumption of a break in the continuity of residence by providing evidence to establish that the applicant did not disrupt the continuity of his or her residence. Such evidence may include, but is not limited to, documentation that during the absence:^[14]

• The applicant did not terminate his or her employment in the United States or obtain employment while abroad;
• The applicant’s immediate family members remained in the United States; and
• The applicant retained full access to or continued to own or lease a home in the United States.

Maybe you qualify?
