Great advice ,my wife and I with my stepson are thinking of moving to the US but didn't want to go through the separation process, so if its possible to stay together and move over together that's fab.
also great to hear that we can get someone who lives in the states to sponser us well me as I am British. 1st though my wife will get her citizenship, for the UK ,although I am sure it asks that you are not going to be moving out of the country for a period of time if you are to get citizenship?

It asks you which country you intend to live in after naturalisation. Spouses of British citizens do not have to intend to live in the UK.

Correct. She can answer ‘United States’ to that question and it won’t cause a problem.

Thanks for the helpful replies from people so far. We’ve now submitted our I-130 and so begins the long wait to complete stage 1.
