Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Naturalizatioa - Legal separatioa

I have been married to US citizen for 8 ys. He is a pastor and we lived for 5 ys abroad. In Sept 04 will be 3 ys since I have acquired my green card. Since Sep 2001 we lived together in the US. We became legally separated in Mar 04 and he is asking for divorce. We have filled taxes together for 2 ys and separately for 2003.

Can I still apply for Citizenship this year or do I have to wait 2 more years to become a Citizen.

If I apply this June can I leave US for a month vacation after that or do I have to stay in US while my naturalization is in process?
