Just a quick question I figure one of you may know. My sister is an
Australian, and married a US citizen 7 years ago, has been living
there as LPR since. They were recently divorced, and she is
considering coming back to Australia to live.
Can she apply for US citizenship before she leaves, as I assume she
should if she is permitted? Or does the fact she is no longer married
to the USC mean that she is no longer eligible?
Thanks for any info!
Regardless of how she became a PR, she is eligible to apply for
naturalization 5 years (less 90 days) from the "resident since" date on
her green card. Her divorce will not be an issue. She must also satisfy
the continuous residence and physical presence requirements, but I'm
guessing this won't be an issue if she's still living in the US.
