I have read and read and silly me wants to be sure! I am USC (born) and my husband is GC holder. We are still waiting for ROA for lifting of conditions received by USCIS on 11/23/18.

 

GC 3 year anniversary is 1/17/2020

Wedding anniversary is 6/15/2019

 

A few questions:

 

  1. Under the 90 day rule, when can my husband apply for citizenship?
  2. If he hasn't received his 10 year GC at the time of applying, can he go ahead and apply?
  3. His daughter from his late wife and him, came in on a K2 and is also waiting for removal of conditions. How does citizenship work for her?

 

Thank you!

My understanding is:

1.  10/19/2019 if married to US citizen for 3 years.

2.  Yes.

3.  When their parent becomes a citizen, if they are under 18 and an LPR and in the custody of that parent, the child automatically gains citizenship.

1. You can apply 90 day before GC 3 year anniversary.

2. Yes, he can.

3. If he become USC and the child will automatic have citizenship from him( assumed the daughter still under 18).
