MikeXiao Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Good luck to you. During the studying process, about 2 weeks before the interview, I made my wife take 2 days off from the studying. That was all she was doing and getting very little sleep. After the interview, she said that she had studied too much. Link to comment

shadeOgray Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Ting and I are not going for citizen ship as were firm on moving to China when I retire.Then it will make things much easier over there if my lao po is still a Chinese citizen. Link to comment

After Ying was here she was uncertain on what to do about citizenship. Yes, the option for us to retire in China was a option for us. Thankfully I have spent enough time in China to fully understand that picture and I know I could handle it. The citizenship option is Ying's, not ours or mine. She knew I would support any decison. She decided that she wanted to be a US citizen. Which I fully support. I guess my advice is that at the P3 stage, decisions on citizenship may be premature, if you make them, don't be too surprised if they change. Link to comment

I guess my advice is that at the P3 stage, decisions on citizenship may be premature, if you make them, don't be too surprised if they change.Very wise advice. When we were going through the process Christine was certain she wouldn't want to go for citizenship. Since she got here she's decided she wanted to after all and then decided maybe it would be a good idea to keep her Chinese citizenship in case we decide to retire there one day. I'm sure we'll go through a few more of these phases before all is said and done. Ed's point is a good one. P3 stage, or even when she gets here is most likely too early to make a decision that has so many factors attached to it. Link to comment

P3 stage, or even when she gets here is most likely too early to make a decision that has so many factors attached to it.My wife's decision was for the citizenship. We are planning on retirement in China, and I thought that would be a reason not to get citizenship. Then she stated that if the children stay here, and we retire, it would be much easier for us, as US citizens, to return to the US for a visit, than it would if we were Chinese citizens. Smart woman I married, teaches me things all the time. Link to comment
