My bride (now a U.S. citizen) wants to petition to bring her mom over from the Philippines. Question, once a person is here under this scenario and gets a green card, how long is the wait before they can apply for U.S. citizenship?
I thought that under the current administration it was handed out the with welcome packet at the border?
Five years from the date of acquiring the green card. https://www.uscis.gov/us-citizenship/citizenship-through-naturalization/path-us-citizenship
