How long can I wait before moving?
Hi all,
My wife is American and I'm British. and we're living in the UK. She's living and working on the spouse visa. We're happy here for now, but want to live in the US at some point in the future. I have three questions that I would really appreciate any help with...
1. If I get accepted for a US spousal visa how long can I leave it before moving to the US? I'm wondering if I can go through the process now and leave moving for a while to give us maximum flexibility.
2. My wife has heard that it will be easier for me to get a US spousal because she has lived and worked here on the UK spousal visa. Is that true?
3. If we have a baby in either the UK or US will it have dual citizenship?
Thanks for reading...any insights would be a great help.

Re: How long can I wait before moving?
That's brillaint info, thanks for such a considered response.
That info has prompted some new questions:
1) How long does my wife have to live here before she can apply for dual citizenship? How long does that application usually take?
2) Assuming I get a US visa, how long do I have to live there before I can apply for dual citizenship, and how long does that applciation process usually take?
Again, any pointers are greatly appreciated.
