My son is US citizen, I live in Nicaragua, and not US resident or citizen...?
Answer:
You can become a naturalized citizen, but only after living here. You can not become a citizen otherwise. As for being a resident, INS can provide documents of being a lawful resident. I believe the nearest one to you is NY. Try there first.
Why would you even want to become a citizen in a country that you don't live in. But if you lived here in the US on your US Visa than you could eventually become a citizen. I recommend first becoming a resident of this wonderful country.
resident is where you live.citizen is once you have all your papers in order and are able to come and go as you wish.
Unless you son can prove he is supporting you, he can not claim you. Follow other ans. to be come a citizen.
its cool that u want to become a u.s. citizen but please try to learn english and learn ALL of it so us americans can understand u ok.
No a resident means someone who lives here.
Your son can sponsor you to live her and become a citizen. If you have a visa is it a tourist visa? You can apply to have that changed. When you are living here you can apply for a resident alien card, commonly refereed to as a green card. You can apply for citizenship after that. It takes about 5 years to gain citizenship after application.
Your english is really misleading and I am wondering.....
Are you saying you are not going to ever come to live in the usa? If so,I can't believe what you are saying. You evidently can speak and write some english. So language is not going to be a problem. So what is holding you to Nicaragua? Does the klu klux klan scare you or does the word nazi make you look behind you? Did you know that what you are suggesting is illegal? Actually I think you are a KID... BECAUSE .. IF you were an adult, you would want to be here in the states with your grandchildren. You would be at the embassy right away asking what you have to do... wouldn't you.......
You can't be given citizenship or residency without actually living in the country. If you plan on living in Nicaragua all the time, then you would be in violation - even if they do give you a green card.
By the way, your English is a LOT better than many people who come here and a lot better than most of the people could speak Spanish if they went to Nicaragua.

You son can petition for you to receive a visa that let's you move to the U.S. to live permanently. If you do that, you may apply for citizenship after 5 years if you meet the other requirements.
If you don't live in the U.S. you may not become a resident or citizen.
Go to the U.S. Immigrations and it will answer all your questions. It tells all about coming and applying for a visa and citizen ship in the U.S.
