If I apply for divorce, will it affect my PR and me applying for citizenship?

William Junior Vasquez
Answered by attorney William Junior Vasquez (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Vasquez Law Firm, PLLC
If you have permanent residency with no conditions attached (your card has a 10-year expiration date), filing for divorce will not affect your residency status or applying for citizenship. Not all marriages last forever, and USCIS cannot hold you responsible for your husband's actions and the dissolution of your marriage. Of course, in your naturalization interview, the immigration officer may ask you questions about your marital status due to the fact that is how you obtained residency, but he cannot use a divorce or separation as a basis for denying your citizenship application. However, if you still have a conditional permanent residency (for two years), and have not yet removed the conditions on your residency, a separation and/or divorce can complicate things in your immigration case. It is best to consult with an immigration lawyer to see if these situations apply to your case.

Can I get a loan on J1 visa

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
I do not believe that there is anything in the law that says that a person on a J-1 visa cannot accept a loan. I assume that if the lender is willing to give the loan, it would be all right for you to accept it. I do note that it is usually difficult for persons on nonimmigrant visas to obtain loans since they are by definition not staying in the country.
