Folks, I have a unique situation. I got married to a US citizen in July 2005. The same month I received my green card based on asylum. My wife is originally from NY and became us citizen in May 2005. I am from Ohio.
It is my understanding that I can apply for citizenship based on marriage to a US citizen. On those grounds I am planning on applying in July.
Now here is my unique situation….
My wife still works in NY and I work in Ohio. We have a child together. We see each other over the weekends and during vacation times. Sometimes I go to NY and sometimes they come to Ohio. This has been going on for almost 3 years. My son was also born in Ohio. For 8 months my employer allowed me to work from home so I was staying in NY. Despite of trying I haven’t been able to find a decent job to make my move which is very frustrating.
My marriage is genuine and we have all supporting documents. However I am not living with my wife on a constant basis. Given my situation would it be an issue to apply for citizenship based on marriage as my understanding is that “Married and Living together is the key here”. I also noticed the address fields in the new N400 application and I don’t want to put false information.
Please advice.
Thank you
