As stated it is 3 years, less 90 days, and YES, the government can be
pedantic about such things. If you have been married to, and living
with, a US citizen for 3 years, you are eligble. I recommend reading the

It is 3 years, less 90 days from the time you became a permanent

you haven't abandoned your PR status) |
