My Mom Is A Citizen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My mother became a citizen at the start of this year and has now filed for me. I have received my EAD and now I am waiting for my I-130 to be approved.
I was wondering does it matter if I have been in the U.S. for 19 years (20yrs old), went to school here graduated from high school here and now attend college.
I thought there was something that said if you graduated from highschool in the U.S. you automatically gain citizenship or was here for a number of years.
And how long does it take for the I-130 to be approved beacause I'll be 21 in Febuary.
Thanks 2 all who help answer my questions
Oh yeah I'm in the worst place for educated african immigrants

about getting her tax returns etc. So I was just checking to see if you had
dun the same as well. Thanks

His I-130 has not even been approved yet. He is a long time away from
either N400 or even the AOS interview. His sponsor's tax returns will
eventually be needed but I don't think that will be soon
