You have had your GC for six years so you don't need to married to a citizen to get citizenship. You are fine even if you divorce before you file..........It would not change the speed of getting citizenship. So you can qualify by using just part B-A.

Then attache an extra sheet explaining your current situation. On that part of the form answer the question as married and put there that you are in the process of trying to get a job. It would not fit in the space so just write somewhere there for them to refer to the attachment for an explanation. Or put married and explain the divorce thing when you get to the interview.
