N-400 - Selective Service question

[cribar]

Hello guys, looking for some guidance filling out the N-400 online.

Question: Are you a male who lived in the United States at any time between your 18th and 26th birthdays?

This does not include living in the United States as a lawful nonimmigrant.

This is a YES or NO answer.

The applicant immigrated to the United States when he was 18, via a visa waiver program, and overstayed the visa until he was 27, when he got married and adjusted his status. He is now 34 years old.

What should we answer?

The red portion of the question is confusing me.

Answering yes, if that is what we should do prompts this:

You should provide a status information letter from the Selective Service

If he overstayed he was not a lawful nonimmigrant, so he was required to register with Selective Services. He has to answer the question with a Yes.
