I'm a permanent resident in the US, I have my citizenship application pending in a limbo status (name check) with no end in sight.
Here is my question: My wife is a foreign national, she's now out of status after her student visa was denied. Should I apply for her Green Card now as a spouse of a permanent resident? OR should I continue to wait for my Citizenship to be finally approved? Is there any disadvantage of doing it now? I'm thinking about doing it so that she's back into legal status here.
If we apply now, does she need to leave the country or can she continue staying here? How long does the I485 approval takes for spouses of GC holders? If I get my citizenship BEFORE her I485 gets approved, will we have to re-submit a new application? HELP PLEASE!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
