Divorce from spouse who is a US citizen and father of my child
27-Sep-2023 (In Divorce Law)
Hi, i got married a year ago to a US citizen and now i am pregnant with his child but he wants to divorce me and not accept my child. Can I and my child get US citizenship ? He filed for my visa and I have interview soon with immigration but before that due to continuous mistreatment and abused by him I raised my voice and now he wants to divorce me. Please guide me so that I can get justice for myself and my unborn child.
Hi Dear,
understanding the gravity of situation that you go through, i would suggest you to settle up the issue for the time being until you get your visa clearance. Your child will be entitled for a US passport if born within the country. If not, he/she will still be entitled for US passport, provided that the father acknowledges his paternity over the child or the paternity of the person is established by adjudication of a competent court.
On the other hand, for you to get the US citizenship the sustainance of marriage is an essential, unless you are a green card holder and has been a resident in the US for 5 years.
