Hello, Everyone
I am an American citizen looking to retire in a few more years. I have a lovely Vietnamese wife and we intend to spend the remainder of our years here in Vietnam. However, my understanding is that my wife has to obtain a green card from the US in order to be eligible for spousal social security both before and after my death.
As you might imagine, we have gotten some conflicting information concerning the process - one being that she has to reside in America for five years (unbelievable) before she can obtain the card.
Has anyone out there been through the process? Any information you can share would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for taking the time to read (and respond?) to my post.
Sincerely...
