I have got a complicated situation. I was living in the UK - got married to a US citizen - Got the "10 Years" Green card through my wife in October 2010. I had plans to continue working in the UK for a while so I passed my driving license / SSN / started bank accounts and credit cards in New York and then came back to the UK after few weeks of receving the Green card.
So Since Novemeber 2010 we are living and working full time in the UK but I am keeping my residence in NY and I visit America every 5 months and 3 weeks to keep my green card up and running.
Now we both are planing to go back to the US and get my citizenship done so we can travel and live any where we like freely. I beleive I can apply for
Naturalization after 3 years of my GC and I also need to be physically present for 18 months so If I start living in America from April 2013 - I will be eligible
to apply in October 2014?
Am i correct there?
Me and my wife do not have loads of documents to prove our relationship/living together except some bank/credit card statements on the same address in NY plus our new born baby (Born in NY - May 2012).
Me and my wife filed the joint tax return in 2010 - In 2011 my accountant told me not to file because we both did not earned any thing ( As we both are living and working in the UK) The accountant also said that I dont have to declare my foreign income unless it is more than 80 thousand US Dollars, So we did not file in 2011.
Can you guys please help me decide the most important step of my life - Do you think the above mentioned will work for Naturalization? Any comments/suggestions/watch outs will be appreciated............. Many thanks for reading
