I applied for Naturalization 2 years and 9 months from the date that was on my 2 year Green Card. Exactly a year prior to when I filed for Naturalization, I filed for Removal of Conditions.

My Removal of Conditions case stayed pending for a year and 8 months. Filing for Naturalization essentially forced USCIS' hand to make a decision on my Removal of Conditions case so the officer assigned to my case went over and approved my I-751 first before he proceeded to quiz me on the N-400 questions. He was very kind too also worthy of note is that my husband and kids came with me to the interview but my husband wasn't interviewed.
