We will see, it is definately going to be interesting as it unfolds.


Get your popcorn ready
For years, we've been saying that the citizenship is not an issue for us. We just wanted to get off this ride with legal residency/permanent residency, but advocacy groups have pushed a pathway to citizenship all along and now legal status in some form or the other is precisely what we'll end up with...if anything at all.

Right. I wouldn't be shocked at them instituting an unreasonable residency requirement (i.e. 15 years of continuous residence in the U.S. to qualify).
