USA, Canada / Very unusual situation with my Mexican wife [7]
Hello everyone,
I'm in a very peculiar situation concerning my wife. I have dual citizenship US/Polish, my wife is a Mexican national living in the US, she came to the US w/ her family when she was a little girl. They did not enter w/ the proper paperwork, therefore as of now due to the complicated and unresolved immigration problem in the US it is hard for her to get her citizenship. We have been married for about a year now and I was wondering if anyone has any advice as to how I could obtain Polish citizenship for my Mexican wife. I know no visa is required for a under 90 day stay for Mexican citizens, yet I am unaware of laws for a pro-longed stay for Mexican citizens (besides knowing she would have to be married to me 3 years before she could apply for Polish citizenship). Currently I am living in the US but I have a place of residency in Poland, yet I feel ultimately I would like to return to the US via Poland if that would help my wife attain legal US residency. It's hard to even figure out which consulate to attain information from, I'm assuming it would be the Polish consulate in Mexico. Any help is greatly appreciated.
