Hi everyone, need your advice on whether my wife and child are entitled to any US resident or citizen status if this is my case.....
- married my wife overseas in 2008,
- our child was born overseas in 2009,
- wife and child are living overseas at the moment, and have not lived in the US before,
- I live and work here in the US, and filed my naturalization application in April 2010 (declared about my wife and child on the application),
- I become a US citizen in September 2010.
- Question:
- Is my wife and child entitled to any US residency or citizenship status by my naturalization?
- If not, what would I need to do to bring them to US for good?
I have read about some of the information regarding this, but not quite understand or sure about it. Before consulting with an attorney on this, I would like to have an idea on this myself.
Any help on this will be appreciated!
